Greetings All

Not done this for a while, I turned over 170k miles yesterday which includes 77k in my 15 year ownership.

What are you lot showing on the odometer?



And yes, needs a clean inside!

When mine turned over 100k, I thought that's buggered the value. It's done 103k now, 24k of them by me since 2008.
 
205955! and the engine has never been taken apart... until now! (I don't even think the head had ever been removed).



Do I win a prize? surely got to be the highest mileage turbo on the forum? a credit to how strong they are to get to that mileage with no surgery.

Think it was on about 115k when I purchased back in 2007 (will check later and update).
 
Yes, you are the current winner! If your original HG has lasted until now, you have done very well! I'm sure I read the OEM Victor Reinz HG has a 10 year service interval. It must have been like a sieve when you took it apart............I think my original HG lasted 115k miles (about 22 years) and resembled a cheese grater upon removal. Got about 10 years and 50k miles from a replacement OEM gasket which failed preceding my engine build. Boost may have been involved in it's demise................

Believe it or not it looks fine! crazy really as my aftermarket boost gauge was indicating max boost of 16 psi with my boost enhancer intermittently (believe it more commonly hit 12-13).
