Highest Mileage ST

[killer5280]

Yesterday my 2016 ST turned over 191,000 miles and everything still working, including the AC. Knock on wood. (Maybe I shouldn't start this thread.)

How many miles on your ST?

52,000 miles on an ordered/bought new 2016, delivered in early October of 2016.

Yup, hardly broken in yet by comparison.

All (I believe) blend door actuators clacking at this point (one was replaced under warranty), the compass in the touch screen is not working and the CD player sometimes does not eject the disc without disconnecting the battery for a hard reset, and yes, it has the dreaded corrosion bubbling under the door skin, hood, rear hatch, etc. edges/seams, and the paint peeling away from the upper hatch hinge area.

But I love this little rally bean anyway, despite the above, and will keep it until I am no longer physically able to drive it, the fuel supply runs out, it is fully totaled/FUBARed, or it completely rusts out and falls apart.

That's great to hear. What repairs and replacements have you done?
I'm also curious about what kind of maintenance, including the type and frequency of oil changes, did you do?

I bought my '16 new in August of 2016, it currently has 33,000 miles on it, and I hope to be able to drive it forever.

Original owner of 2014 with 115,000. No issues with rust, no mechanical problems, outside in all weather 365 and never complains. Going to change oil to 5W30 at the next change, normally done between 5-8,000 miles.

I wish I could tell you. I'm either the third or fourth owner and I bought it last year with 184,000 miles or so on the odometer. I know the clutch and slave cylinder have been replaced because the guy I bought it from gave me a receipt for that. I'm pretty certain, but not absolutely so, that the timing belt has been replaced at some point. That is definitely on my to do list in the not too distant future.
The car was stock when I bought it except for Konig Dekagrams and Continental tires. It had a terrible whine that both the seller and I thought was a wheel bearing but when I got it home and thoroughly inspected it, it turned out to be a bad tire. New tires put everything right. Since I have had it I have installed Swift springs, a two point front bash bar, a Whoosh rear motor mount and Powerflex inserts in the other engine and transmission mounts, one step colder plugs, an eBay aftermarket intercooler, a symposer delete and a Dizzy Stage 2 93 octane tune. I have been changing the oil at 3500 mile intervals with either Supertech or STP full synthetic 5W30 and I drained the transmission and refilled with Redline MT-LV.
The price was right and I have been prepared to do an engine swap should that become necessary, but so far it just runs.

Okay, thanks for the info.
