Default Re: how many miles on your xfire? major problems?

I'm getting close to 80,000 miles now and I haven't had any problems. Just oil changes and routine maintenance. I'm flushing the radiator and putting in new spark plugs in the next couple of weeks just for kicks. Surprisingly, my '04 is still on the OEM battery and probably the original crankshaft position sensor as well so I plan on changing those out this Spring as a precaution. Actually, the only issue I can think of is that a lightbulb or two has been burned out on the car since I bought it. The bulb in the upper left corner of the passenger side headlight is out and I know I have one more that's out too but can't figure out which one. I'm thinking it might be a license plate bulb.

I'm definitely pleasantly surprised at how little I've spent in maintenance in the past 14 months of ownership. Other than oil changes, brake pads, headlight bulbs, and tires, it hasn't needed a thing. That hasn't stopped me from upgrading a few bits though.
