High Mileage Examples

[joemama]

Not sure if this is the right place to post so feel free to remove and advise where I can repost.... BUT what are some of the highest mileage examples of the ITS out there? I've had mine about a month now and have already put on 2k miles. I plan on doing first oil change around 3k-5k and 2nd at dealer 10k.

Any out of service/maintenance repairs required for higher mileage folks (I know, mileage is subjective depending on person)? I've already swapped out the coolant overflow rezy for a Moshimoto.

Im only at 17k or so.
I will add.. no real issues other than preventive with the coolant overflow tank. 2nd gear grind seems better after clutch adjustment.

I'm 10 months in and still under 5k miles. I love keeping the mileage low. I drive my wife's car all the time, LOL.

Yeah, I actively look for excuses to drive my car but without a daily commute I'm at about 7900 right now.

Other than the "wastegate noise" issue I've been hearing since the first week I've had it, zero issues.

Oh, I did have a plastic piece in the corner of the windshield cowl fly off, on the highway or the track. Or maybe it didn't come with it at all; someone else had to point it out to me. Otherwise, GTG.

Why would your warranty be over in December? ITS first year is 2024.

Mileage-wise

I just have a regular 1.5T. Couldnt wait for the Type S.

I'm at 3200 took delivery at the end of March, so 4 and a half months, about 750 miles per month.
I drive 5 miles to work every day so the miles are from taking those extra drives just for the fun of it.

I put a deposit on my C8 in October 2021. Picked up late May 2024. Patience is a virtue.

I'm at 13k miles and 8/26 will be a year to the day. I'm guessing that's higher mileage for the ITS crowd. No issues. I think in 10-15 years from now people will learn to appreciate the decontented aspect especially from a longevity and reliability standpoint. Only time will tell.

Another Houstonian! We need to do a local coffee meet up for ITS owners in here. Agreed regarding mileage.

Had a TSX Wagon a few years ago that my brother now drives, almost 200k and still runs like a champ. Burns oil like no tomorrow but nothing an occasional oil top-off can't fix

I'm at 7600 miles, picked the car up the first week of April. Haven't even gone in for my first service yet...Though I have been checking the oil condition pretty regularly and it appears fine (level, viscosity, and clarity-wise). I'm going to follow their recommended service guide and bring the car in for the first service and oil change once I hit 15% oil life unless the oil starts to get grungy.

Tell me about this 2nd gear grind please?
