Last time I celebrated a mileage milestone I got in trouble... my '75 Volvo 164E rolled over to 200K and about 3 miles later the recently rebuilt transmission started acting up.... would only drop in and out of 1st gear. :(

95Q + warranty > 75 Volvo.

Kind of hoping the transmission goes out this year. That's the only part I'd really be worried about AFTER the warranty expires.

That and randomly shifting in traffic over the next 12 months ought to do the trick.

Nick :)

P.S. if your transmission goes out, these posts will be removed ;)

Congrats, on the 100K.

I just did a power flush on my transmission. It was it's 60,000 mile birthday present. The car shifts really good, for now. It was hunting a little too much, at low RPM's.

I am saving up for my Q's 200th K present, maybe I'll vacume the carpet.:D

I guess you have to know me, to know how funny that really was.

Spelling is not my strong suit. It's a good thing I have a Q45, and not a chervolet, frod, or a poitnac.;) By the way, I got cash! I'll get the "package" to you, tomorrow.

Sounds like Quella is getting a new CD changer, for her birthday.

Actually, it is the quality of each post and not the quantity of posts that make this board the resource it is.

Post whoring is not a contribution.

Congrats, Hitman, you big post whore!!!!!LOL I've never owned a car where passing the 100k was an actual milestone as oppossed to a "holy sh*t, I can't believe it still runs" kinda thing!LOL

I'm debating what to do with my Q since my odometer doesn't work,,,,,,fix it to keep track, or just keep going, keeping a mental estimation, cause' I plan on keepin' her till' she dies......then a proper funeral, of course.LOL Jeff
