2001 SE Anniversary Edition w/125XXX miles on it
I have replaced the following:
Radiator at 65k
Replaced factory battery at 90k
Revolution Speed Sensor at 100k
Harmonic balancer 114k (oe just fell apart driving down the road)
Spark Plugs at 114k
3 sets of front brakes
1 set of rear brakes
High pressure power steering hose at 124k
2 Starters
O2 sensor pre-cat at 124k (after 4 years of the SES light being on)
MAF Sensor at 124k
Bose Sub relay fix last week
On the agenda this weekend:
Drain tranny and replace filter (don't think this has every been done)
Replace shift solenoids
Replace fuel filter
I used to wait for things to go wrong before I worked on it. Now I find myself doing something different twice a month.

2003 Maxima SE, 125,000 miles since new. I am the original owner.
I've replaced the struts, radiator, motor mounts and cam position sensors (this wasn't needed though as the engine was replaced shortly after under warranty). Other than the stereo the car is completely stock.
Still on the original automatic transmission which seems to be working well. I just flushed the transmission fluid about 10k ago and did a coolant flush less than 1000 miles ago. Motor mounts were replaced about 20k miles ago.

2002 SE Auto - 121,000 miles
I've had to replace the alternator (warranty), high pressure power steering hose and a few belts and wires. The car started idling rough and dying at stops but a throttle body cleaning fixed the issue. No other problems.
