How many miles would you consider too much?
The car runs great, sounds good. I am just sceptical about the miles,
can one get 300K out of it.
Its the 6 cyl 24 value.

Our 97 Max. has 160K and still running strong. Our last Nissan was a
Sentra and lasted until 275K with the original clutch. Had to get rid
of it because the frame had rot out on us. I think this Max. will go
bejond the 200K mark. I change the oil every 3 - 4K and the
antifreeze every 25K. And yes I use the Prestone antifreeze. This is
the NEW every engine/car formula.

If you're talking about this one;

it says that it is not meant to be used when flushing the system, only
for topping off.

Been doing this since new. No problems and the car is 10...TEN yrs
old. Original water pump and radiator. The only thing I have changed
related to the cooling system are the hoses. I think I'll continue
with my practice.

Fair enough, but also bear in mind that water pumps tend to go at
about 150 to 200000 miles. So I guess we'll see.

It'll be interesting, yes, but the car will be gone in two yrs. At
that point I'll be coming up on 190 - 200K. I hope the water pump
holds out!!! If it doesn't, then I'll be looking for you because ya
jinx'd me.....(-: At that point the next owner will have to deal with
it.
