@ @ both bombproof. Idk why 3.4 dont get that status though. Works fine for me. I like 3.4 because the motor internals are more audible and it sounds very mechanical. Its not just a roar and exhaust. 3.4 and 3.8 have subtle differences and even share the same block and very similar valve train layout. Ima just be honest, 3/4 of problems i experienced with my 3.4 are shortcomings of my beginner lvel repairs and maintains. As well as previous owners negligence. i rebuild motor (all new component bearings) at just over 200000 im at 240 now. The transaxle gave out at 180k which exceeds my 160k mile minimum transmission durability with a single transmission fluid change being its only service. This transaxle had no service. I bet to say that if previous owner wouldve serviced the trans fluid when it hit 100k it would still have original transmission. Yes…. I rebuilt the transmission.

BTW we own a 2015 Acura RDX 169,000 Km SUV that has cost us only the factory suggested maintenance procedures---- no unexpected repair bills. We don't pay premium rates at an Acura dealer any more as we have found a reliable private shop. I requested a tappet check and adjustment at 140,000 K and it now responds like a new engine. We still have good mileage and passing power with the 3.5 L V-6 and 6 speed tranny. We have no reason to sell it and buy an expensive replacement with direct injection, troublesome turbo or untested tranny, etc. Thanks for the helpful videos!

Nissan CVT fluid should be replaced every 20k-30k miles as opposed to the Nissan recommendation of just checking its quality with specialized tools. Nissan CVT fluid is expensive, so owners don't want to replace it without Nissan asking them to do it, but the CVT transmission is even more expensive than the fluid. The original CVT fluid is almost see through. After 30k miles, it is as black as asphalt ... and when you drain and fill CVT fluid, only half of it drains out (4.5 qt out of 9 qt for the Rogue)

I do not have an oil dilution issue, but I have an MG ZS EV Mk1 and I do about 5,000 km per year. I am aged 78 and my oil change is at 100,000 km. This means I will be 98 when the time comes to change the oil. The question I have is whether I should try and remember to do the oil change when I am 98, or whether I should live dangerously and change the oil when I turn 100 which would be easier to remember when I am blowing out the candles on my birthday cake, assuming it is not too hot to get close enough because of all the candles.

There is an E class W212 up for sale parked on my street with 3.5 v6. I thought they were quite unreliable from what I heard about 21st century Mercedes cars, quite surprised of what you said in the video. I gotta say the rear looks good but the front with the double headlights is awful, i dont like double headlights unless its inside the grille. I much prefer post face lift version.

It's weird how in the USA/Canada, Kia and Hyundai cars are among the worst. Whereas in Australia they consistently top the ranks for long-term quality...

I think a lot of it is the engine and secondly where they are built. A lot of Hyundai\Kia's are built in the USA\Mexico unlike the rest of the world where they are made in South Korea and Thailand. Also Kia engines like the 2.0 aren't allowed to in the USA as they don't meet emissions. So they use a weaker Hyundai modified engines which have lower tolerances requiring finer oils and more refined fuel. Finally most markets use diesels (Europe, SE Asia) which the USA doesn't. Good luck finding a small diesel SUV in the States.

The newest car I've ever bought (I'm 26 gimme a break) is my new to me 2009 volvo c30. Needed a cheap manual with low km feels as solid as a toyota in most aspects is comfy and drives like new so a pretty good buy. Until 2 weeks ago when the car told me to pull over and then wouldn't start again. Literally went into "take me to the dealer now please" mode. 7 hours of "volvo tech" labour later it was all because of a worn out ignition switch total cost 2600 australian dollarydoos. I'm sticking to late 90s early 2000s cars after this one.

Chasing all the various emissions perversely can increase fuel consumption, combustion temps have to be managed and dpfs regenerated, it all impacts economy and increases CO2, to enable them to manage particulates and nitrous oxides etc. Obviously there's been a bit of trouble with that manufacturers parent company, so having to make them less efficient to meet specs, rather than just having bs figures.

There are still some (like my Miata ND2 RF, Lexus UX 250h, Suzuki Jimny LCV), but you need more research on reliability, low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) etc. Then you will go for the top Japanese cars. I am still shocked how little investigation is done by snowflakes on the main life expenses: houses, cars and exotic holidays. Getting loans, mortgages, leasing (making you a slave) for inefficient, unsafe, unreliable, high TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) products is extremely dumb.

The GMC Terrain had a lot of problems when they first came out around 2010 but I read a study that showed they continued to fix problems and about 2020 they have very few problems. Lots of Terrain owners like their cars and rate them higher than Toyotas and Hondas which lately are having failures. Terrain has real transmission.
