Re: Astro Mileages

1997 Astro AWD - 191,000

New - Alternator, tires, intake gasket, injectors, speed sensor, AC compressor, fuel pump, misc. hoses and clamps, brakes, - over the years.

I like the over-all feel and look of the van, it's great for my job, but man they do have their issues.

Will be 195,000 by the end of this week for sure.

Re: Astro Mileages

I had a 94 utility van I bought second hand--I lowered it, painted it candy blue--nice rims, headers, and put a full interior in it to show off the stereo systems I was a rep for (Rockford Fosgate) This poor van always had lots of weight in it, and I ran it hard!. Changed oil regularly--at 297000 it went better than the 96 I bought to replace it. Took everything out and got $2500 for it

Im on my 3rd Safari and wish GM would bring them back to Canada

New Astro van, well sort of. it is a 93 Astro van, 4.3 v6 with a rebuild engine and tranny. the odo Says
391,000.00 km

Some issues with my instrument cluster and steering column, but the van runs like a dream.
Just need to upgrade the suspension and exhaust and a new paint job. i'll post a picture of it later on.

Re: Astro Mileages

1998 Safari = 290,000 miles: engine, transmission, & rear axle have never been apart.

2002 Astro = 330,000 miles: engine, transmission, & rear axle have never been apart. Sees 350 miles a day, 5 days a week. Oil & filter every other weekend.

Both run perfectly.

Re: Astro Mileages

2004 cargo 340,000 KM (212,500 miles) original transmission, engine, and rear axle. I bought it new in 2004, maintained regularly, oil change every 7,000 km; transmission fluid every 50,000km, it still runs great, however, its rear universal join has been replaced in every 2 years, replaced its alternator at 220,000km(137,500miles).
