Cool! I just broke mine in at 58,000! I celebrated with new front brakes too! New spark plugs, belt, battery and brakes all within the last 6 months and my Vibe runs like new! A bottle of Chevron Techron in the tank once a year and the performance is always there...

I'm approaching 89k miles now. Still runs great with no problems! It's great to have a car that is almost 6 years old that I still really enjoy with no plans of selling.

I never go by those extended change intervals and always cut them in half and do the maintenance. If left until 100K you can see poor fuel mileage and performance and a miss fire code could pop up.

50,000 MILES - For me that would be 8 years give or take. I am at 29,950 - 5 years 1 month. I fear if I wait much longer they won't be able to get them out. If you are spending the labor to get them taken out to make sure they dont freeze up might was well spend the extra $15 and get new plugs.

i spend about $60-$90 a week, so thats between $3000-$4700/yr

melders · Post by **melders** » Tue Feb 26, 2008 11:29 am

sheesh...guess i gotta do spark plugs soon, that may explain why gas is dissappearing faster lately...or its because of the heater on all the time.
