How many miles do you have on your 4th Gen??

[Presta24]

Curious to see how many miles every one has on the T4R's. I found a few posts but they were from several years ago. Hoping the thread will help people to find out what to expect out of their runner and what maintenance they may want to perform. Tell us your:

Mileage/km
Engine
Drive train (4wd/2wd/awd)
Oil/filter used and Intervals changed at
maintenance


I have a 03 v8 sr5 awd

101,000 miles
v8
awd
have always used mobile1 clean 5000 5w30 and a fram extra guard filter changed @ 3000mi. But I am switcing to Mobile1 synthetic and pureone filter, hoping to go 7500mi

2007 4runner SR5 bought in April 2007
86,xxx miles
4.0 V6 4wd
Toyota filter, Castrol GTX 5W30 every 5k miles (do it myself)

 

[ARK_SWAMP_RIDER]

2003 4runner
142k miles, bought at 115k August 2009
v8 4x4
Toyota filter, Castrol GTX High Mileage 5w30 every 5k miles (do it myself as well)

When I bought it, I had quite a few maintenance receipts (oil changes, timing belt, etc) from the local dealer, so I know it was pretty well maintained before I got it, just don't know the details. Only thing I've had to do was brake rotors and pads, which is to be expected with the mileage.

Mobile 1 at 7500 is throwing money away. Minimum of 12k before change...

2003 4runner V6 2wd
143K mi, bought at 119k March 2010
Mobil 1/K & N/Wix Filter
Royal Purple or Mobil 1 Synthetic 5W30

I've changed it every 6-8K since I got it (except the first which was 3k).

When I got it, it came with receipts from the toyota place for every oil change, about every 3K I think (whatever the service plan deal was).

In just the last week or 10 days someone on here posted a link to a site that collects mileage/maintenance data and then provides stats from all the users that submit the data. I am trying to find it now so I can add to the thread as there are not too many 4th gens yet on the site, hope to find it tonight and post again, in the meantime:

Mileage/km - 70.000 mi
Engine - 1GRfE VVTi
Drive train (4wd/2wd/awd) - 4WD SE
Oil/filter used and Intervals changed at - Mobile 1 Syn / Toyota Filter @7.500 mi
