My 09 ge8

 

Congrats! Looks like I have along way to go on my 10 fit. Im only at the 37k mark

 

Congrats for hitting that mark! you got any major repair on your engine?

 

That's a hella lot more miles than I have on my 09 Fit. I just went over 30,000 a few weeks back.

 

Wow, tell me you spend alot of time driving out of state....

otherwise I'm curious to know what issues you experienced driving 160k in NYC

 

Wow! I thought I was crazy doing almost 40k in one year. You're driving 50-60k/yr.!

Any problems so far?

 

My '09 has 23,000!

 

Just hit 60,000 miles on my '09 during my road trip to CA over the holidays. Now nearly 63,000.

But it never let me down always started hot cold ... trips to florida etc

All highway miles obviously

 

Damn that's a lot of repairs/maintenance

 

Well this is the car that starts at any time leaks nothing and drives 100% I can drive it to Cali anytime.

 

I had a 2002 Civic coupe with 217,000mi on it before I got the Fit. The only repairs I had to have were replace the ECM module (a common repair apparently) and had to replace the top dead center sensor on the engine and the main radiator cooling fan at the same time. The car never left me stranded, although when the cooling fan and sensor went out I thought it was going to. I just had to let it cool off and then drove it 200 miles on the interstate before putting it in the shop the next day.

Even at 217,000mi I wouldn't have hesitated to jump in the Civic and drive across the country. I just hope I can get that kind of reliability out of my 2012 Fit.
