150,000Km Service

[GoodVibe]

I have a 2004 BA XR6 turbo that is getting very close to 150,000km, Most of which (45,000) has been done by me in the last 14 months since I bought it as a 2nd owner.

The car has always been to the same dealer every 10 thou since new and I believe its in great condition mechanically, So 3 questions for the higher km owners out there:

1. Do I trust my dealer to be in depth enough for the 150k or do I take it elsewhere? (recommendations for anywhere in sydney welcome)

2. Anything extra I should be looking out for at the km its at?

3. Is 10 thou services often enough for a a car that does roughly 600 highway km a week at its age

also, 4 speed auto, stock except for hotdogged middle muffler and f6 cai

Thanks in advance

I cant see why not, you have trusted them with the last four odd services yourself at that dealer.

anything else you should look out for? depends if its a major service or not. its all listed what they check and should do in the hand book.

if your not satisfied that they checked everything, check out the sponsers here and see if any are close to you and even get them to do a thorough check over.

If its a ford dealer your talking about , just tell them what you want done. EG gearbox service and oil change , diff oil charge , coolant change , power steering flush , brake fulid change , new plugs , new air cleaner, check brakes , wheel bearing ETC ETC .

If your happy with your dealer let em do it, if your after a performance shop your not far from Just Engine Management at Ingleburn.

Looks like dealer should be ok then.

I will just have to give them a list of stuff I want checked

I'm going to be keeping this car for a while (trying to save for a house...) so I need to try and make it last a while

Thanks guys!
