Default NX w/114K Miles

I have owned my NX for a few years now and have racked up 114K miles on it. Other than spark plugs, tires, front and rear brakes, two batteries, oil changes every 10K miles, and other minor misc. maintenance the vehicle has been super reliable. No leaks, no issues ever. I am pretty happy with it and it is super well taken care of but I have been pondering the idea of getting into a Hybrid RX350 being that I drive so much and would love to get into a roomier more comfortable car. I only owe a few thousand on the NX so I have a good chunk of equity. I was wondering if any high mileage NX owners have any input with any major problems or expensive maintenance at or near my mileage that I have to consider. Does this vehicle have any major timing components that will require upcoming maintenance? The idea of just paying off the NX and keeping it until the wheels fall off is also in my head but I do worry about the long term maintenance and reliability with so much mileage raking up... Any thoughts and/or input would be appreciated.

Consumer Reports just rated the NX the most reliable SUV. Although I drive a RX450h and love it there is a side of me that says keep the NX. Save money unless you are considering a used RX.

Thank for the input. I too am leaning towards just paying off the NX and running it to the ground. Especially because it is so well taken care of. So far my NX burns on oil, no fluid leaks, and still drives like day one.

Same here, 112k on my 2016 base, absolutely no problems. Dealer never touched the car except for a recall and replacing a plastic rivet. I am waiting for things to blow over before buying a new car.

If deciding on keeping it the following I would do;
Oil Catch Can
oil changes every 6k instead of 10k, full synthetic of course.

Am not sure on those models, regardless if they say transmission and diff oil is lifetime, would put fresh fluids now at the 100k mile (would have been great at 70k), following every 30k changes at least for transmission.
