2006 Mustang GT 152,000 Mile Report
It seemed like only yesterday I was hitting 100,000 miles. I have had literally 0 issues with this car in course of accumulating 152K on the odo. I've recapped the maintenance/service highlights below. Does anyone else on the forum have over 150,000 on their s197 (any year)?
Ford Service
>>> Fuel Pump - had replaced as a preventative measure due to TSB
>>> Rear end whine - repaired early under warranty - bad clutch pack
>>> Coolant flush/fill
Maintenance By Me
>>> Approx 30 synthetic oil changes from 2k
>>> Multiple fuel filters
>>> Serpentine belt
>>> Clean air filter
>>> Cabin filter
>>> RP fluid in trans and rear diff
>>> Brakes at about 125K?
>>> 3 sets of tires + oe
>>> Optima yellow top battery
>>> Spark plugs at 105k
Clutch is still stock and tight. Burns virtually no oil between changes if any. How long will she go?

Wow! Keep going! Before long you'll be like that guy that bought his '71 brand new and now has 600k + miles on it! Gives me something to look forward to with my car. Good Luck with her!!!
I'd also like to see a high mileage auto, see how the 5R55S holds up...

I must admit, I'm jealous...I figured as I was reading your post that you must be stock and drive like a grandma lol, but then I see you have a number of mods...
Me, I'm heading towards my SECOND transmission rebuild, with less than half the miles you have on your car. But what can you do? I sure hope my next 100k go as smoothly as yours have!
