My Max just hit 100K miles.

Anyone else out there in this club? How’s it running after all those miles? Have you had any work done? What do you plan on doing?

i have done brakes, oil changes, and tires. It has not needed any other service so far. I am planning on taking it in to get the transmission flushed and serviced.

You're overdue on the CVT fluid. I'd get that done. That said, Spark plugs are only rated at 100k, radiator fluid flush, brake fluid flush...possibly the belt, but it's only 3 years old, so it really depends on wear, as it shouldn't be cracking yet. Also, take a vacation from driving, that's a lot of miles for a 3 yearold (guessing) car!

Amen bro, to all you've said here. I can attest to the spark plug change idea. I just replaced a set of 100 thousand mile plugs on a '95 Vette with 65,000 miles. Those platinum plug electrode gaps were over .075 inches but were .050 when new. Can't speak for the iridiums but not a bad thing to pull a plug or two and see how they are doing.

I'm at around 70K miles. Aside from brakes and oil changes, dealer changed plugs & CVT fluid @60K miles (prob. didn't need plugs, but what-the-hell). Had all brakes bled after 2 yrs; fluid was dark/contaminated. No issues whatsoever with this car, pulls like a train. I do the dealer recommended service every 15K miles.

Very refreshing to hear about longevity without problems. Currently I have a 2018 Max, but my first one was a 2005 SL. I absolutely loved that car but in cost me an arm and a leg in repairs for all kinds of things not included in regular maintenance/service, and not covered by any warranty. Never had a problem with its engine or transmission, but as for the rest ... thousands of $$ in repairs some for pats I didn't even know existed.

Now I am past 10k on my 2018 Max and no issues whatsoever, but it's still new.

I believe I'm at about 100k, no major issues other than my a/c isn't working right now. Mechanic said it's electrical.
The passenger side of the front bumper isn't fully clipped in because it got pulled off when parking near one of those bump stops you park against and there is a crack along the bottom of the windshield that isnt in my line of sight of the road.

But everything mechanical is in tiptop.
