Just wondering who has the highest mileage on an 8G. I read about tranny problems on them and wonder what kind of mileage I can expect before trouble.

Just wondering who has the highest mileage on an 8G. I read about tranny problems on them and wonder what kind of mileage I can expect before trouble.
then why didn't you just ask if anybody has tranny problems and at what mileage did they start?
but to answer your question, 95K and never had a problem w/ the tranny.
someone in ny i believe was trying to sell an 8g i think a 99 with 247k miles on it.
00 GTZ with 85k, I drive like a rock star and my tranny is still pretty smooth https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/smile.gif They are good trannys, just dont do alot of neutral drops with em....
I have 97K with no tranny problems.
i have a 2000 with 130K miles on it and never hd a tranny problem. if yours feels like its slipping try to get the tranny fluid changed, it might need it. if it continues after the fluid change then...... new tranny most likely.
117k 01 4cyl, no tranny prglem so far, and i had my tranny fluid changed 3x so far....
2001 es 78k...no probs here
99 ES 47700
2k1 GTZ my tranny went out at 90K.. had to get a new one it cost me $2500 :cry: :cry:
Whoa, your tranny went out? Can you tell us more about the symptoms you had? Thanks.
Yeah, tell about the warning signs, if any you had before the tranny went out. But on the topic of highest miles, I did hear about one guy here that had 250K that was planning on selling his. Guys here were joking about advertising it as 1/4 million miles..lol But personally, I have 220K on my 1999 ES V6, that I bought new off the lot in August on '99.
01 4banger ES. 70k no probs at all. Flush the tranny every 30k. bought the car new. I know it cant be a bad tranny cuz my woman drives it mostly.. and she beats the hell outta my poor little car.
99gtz 140,000 miles bought new in 98 never had a problem
I got a 01 GTZ, bought it with 48k, im pushin a lil over 50 now. for an extra grand i got a 50,000 mile, 4 year bumper to bumper with it. Tranny problems dont scare me. Im under warranty. :twisted:
I actually still gotta go pick up my plates. My temp expires this month. :shock:
it's reassuring to hear that the v6 8g's have been so reliable for a lot of people when it came to major components. yay for mitsu... for once
250k is nuts though
before i bought this car, i did a SHITLOAD of research on various cars.( SE-R Spec V was my second choice) I have actually read reviews stating the quality of the mitsu drivetrain.
145K+..... 2000 Galant, 2nd owner. Changed the timing belt at 133K and replced one of the coilpack boots once.. Just routine maintenance.
I now have 107k on my GTZ, tranny is starting to slip I think, I'm going to change the tranny fluid and hopefully make it through the winter...5-speed swap will happen in the spring. https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/smile.gif
81,xxx on my 00 ES, no tranny problems, thought I felt one slip before one day but havent felt anything close to it since, no tranny changes.. I'll prolly let the fluid thats in it sit over winter and flush it in spring
I might be buyin a BMW real soon too https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/laugh.gif
