I’m on about 102k with oil changes at less than about 2k a year.

I envy you all, my V8 (MY18) failed at 25000 miles. Full service history, oil change every 6 months.

Engines do fail and it happens with every make - just look at what’s happening with Ford Rangers and also Toyotas - it’s an all make issue and it’s not helped by emission treatments or owners that skip servicing and then clock the cars which are on PCP to avoid additional mileage charges. 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17 |
