Mine 1.6 SG is 70 mths and 115kkm already and very satisfied esp. reliability as compared with my former ride
Waja 1.6 (00 to 06). Besides the normal servicing and wear n tear replacements, this car is virtually trouble-free.
Now the suspension showing signs of failing but I m mostly driving alone hence will replace later.
How abt you guys? Care to share your Sentra ownership experience from day 1 and what will be your next ride?
I might be going for used Teana or new Kia Optima,depending on budget....... smile_tongue.gif

Br 1,

60kkm/yr, taxi or what? A normal usage is abt. 20kkm/yr.

fkmfkm,

Yours had the highest mileage so far. When reaching 300kkm?

After 6 yrs. the rear abs starting to fail and sport rims slightly bent already.

My workhorse diesel SUVs are usually alway just parked 3-4 days / week (I worked from home). only use it for 2-3 times / week for only outstation trip for business trip - KL-JB-KL, KL-pg-KL or Kl-Kuantan-KL, to & fro the same day. so it a 500-800k kms / trip - so this workhorse is only running on highway fast lane - hahahha, for town or neighbourhood driver use other smaller saloon cars.

300k kms should be in 5 yrs times and then change car, so worked out as car rental at only RM0.35/km, after balance 50% residue value for a +/-200k car. so not so sakit hati to car depreciation and ready at RM20k / yr. based on 60k kms / yrs basic. Excuses to change car often for i/tax purposes.

Just before the abosrber / rim get slightly bend - let go of it for new 2nd owner to worry lor - hahahaha,
worried about high mileage? - do turnback meter reading and sell it off quickly lor - who cares?
