Re: How Many Miles on Your Lumina

1998 with 100K. Initial problems with Brakes where all lights would dim when braking, fixed by dealer under warranty. Alternator replaced with new Durlast Gold 3 yrs ago. Serpentine replaced due to cracks. Turn signal switch starting to go bad. Seat springs are getting worn. A/C went out and replaced compressor and drier unit. Oil leaks from top of engine from under throttle body, small leak but annoying. Suspension is getting soft and can feel it in turns and bumpy roads.

No other repairs and car starts every day.

Need to replace original hoses. Did flush coolant at 90K.

Power windows, power seats and radio work fine. No rain water leaks from body, really thankful for this.

Re: How Many Miles on Your Lumina

135500 on the 90, still going strong after a near call with the transmission (Torque converter, required drop to get moving wihtout stall) A/C still blows cold, however the selenoid recently got stuck on FULL HOT!!!! Suspension is very soft, hit the gas on an oily-at-all road and you'll spin the tires!

Re: How Many Miles on Your Lumina

Hi I have a 99 lumina with a 3.1 and it has 180,000 miles on it and the only thing that I have done is the regular maintenance to it. It still gets well over 30 miles to the gallon on the highway . She isn't prettiest car but she is paid for and runs just as smooth as the day I drove it off the lot. Yes I bought it brand new!!

Re: How Many Miles on Your Lumina

My 99 w/3.1 has 123K.

I became a Lumina fan with my 96 w/3.1 which I sold 3 years ago with 215K miles. Other than the white paint that was falling off in sheets and the cup holder that the bottom bar broke off of, this car never saw a repair - only routine maintenance. It even still had the OEM exhaust!

Re: How Many Miles on Your Lumina

My 1996 Lumina has 103K on it. I have replaced alternator, a cracked Exhaust Manifold (cracked)...Intake gasket (twice), once under warrantee and once last year..(600.00)...
Rear Struts, and I its been skipping at a stop light, I sprayed a can of carb cleaner in PVC hose and put some 93 octane in it along with a couple of cans of Fuel Injector Cleaner, running better now.
I love this car however, white leather interior, just starting to show rust..
Oh yea, AC has not worked in a few years, I just recharge it myself with one of those quick and dirty kits from the Autoparts store..It last about a month
Best of all
ITS PAID FOR!
