Default High milage newbie

Hello all,

I've been visiting the forums for a while now and finally decided to join. My 2003 X-Type has 221,000 and still going strong. Although she is needing a little care these days, hence increased visitation to the forums. Just replaced the plugs, cabin filter, and breather hose. I have replaced the entire suspension at 150,000 (never worked harder or got dirtier in my life). Oh, and fixed an electrical short by replacing the hood cable, yeah, that's right, but I'll take the luck when I can get it!!

Thanks to all the contributing members with clear step by steps and pics on repairs and improvements!!

Welcome to the forum!

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.
