I suppose you need to track it yourself.

If I draw in two more boxes on the right page, I'll have room to do PM up to 160K miles. Then I guess I'll have to stop.

I have to assume this is for the Jag, because that was never ment to go past 120k miles.

No, 2003 Civic.

The Jag only goes to 36K (but you start repeating them up to 72K)

Here is the last entry for PM.

and sometimes you have to unfold the map.

I should scan or take some photos of the rest of it. The drawings are pretty awesome for an owner's manual. Same artists that did the shop manual did the illustrations for the owners..

Once you run out of boxes you can switch to excel. Then you can have fun with all kinds of formulas too. Mine tells me what the total cost of maintenence is, and average cost per year. As well as number of miles driven per year.

I use Excel for everything. Every penny I spent on my LGT was tracked which gave me $/mile and $/day, along with the projected mileage on a certain date, and the days until I reach a certain mileage (helps for planning maintenance costs). I also track mileage with different tires used, oil used, ethanol percentage, city/hwy/commute driving, the time of year, average speed, and tire pressure. Yeah, I'm a bit nuts about that, but it's amazing what kind of results you can get when you pay attention to the little things

After 120k you've probably replaced everything so maybe start from the beginning?

I'm afraid to see cost per mile! Would probably make me not want to drive.

Actually, I can count on my hands the things that have been replaced on it at 140K.

It's been a fantastic car.

That's great, very reliable.
I've always wondered what happens when you reach the end of the suggested maintenance schedule. Hope your next 120k miles are as reliable as the first!

Aside from regular items (water pump/timing belt, brakes, tires, filters & fluids, plugs) We have only replaced a cam sensor, starter, and a head gasket.

And that transmission under warranty at 65K

From the 2 cars I've been doing this for, between $0.53-$0.58/mi is what it costs after the purchase price, gas, insurance, parts/maintenance, etc. There's no getting around it
