Default Car Just Turned Over 200K Miles!

Car just turned over 200K miles--Still looks and runs like a champ! Engine and trans still running strong.

It has some minor issues--The usual oil consumption (but is not blowing blue smoke), electrical glitches (mirror reverse tilt down feature, lines in the auto dim mirror), some interior rattles, CEL on for bank 2 cat below efficiency (it already passed smog and I have spare exhaust manifold/cat from recycle yard), minor oil leak from head gaskets.

But everyday it starts and gets me where Im going. Legendary Lexus/Toyota reliability and durability. I will keep driving it indefinitely!

I’m catching up with 185,000! Any oil pan seal leaks? Mines look wet underneath but no oil on my floor! Did you change your alternator? I just bought it with 179,000 so I’m praying haha
