Re: how many miles on orig motor and trans

Have an 02 Suburban with 5.3 and 4L60E K1500 with 188,000 miles. Both running strong! Using Amsoil in engine and transmission. Getting ready to change trans. fluid for the second time. Using Amsoil in front and rear ends and no problems whatsoever. So far, I am very satisfied with Amsoil. Not sure if Amsoil is letting me get this kind of performance out of my truck, or this is normal expectations.

Re: how many miles on orig motor and trans

1995 Suburban K1500 1/2ton/4wd with 211,000 miles on the original engine/transmission. The burb has always used a quart of oil every 1500 miles. Changed oil regularly every 3000-3500 miles. Never, not once, changed the tranny fluid. Still running on the original fuel pump/sending unit, too.

The alternator was rebuilt at 100k miles. At 150k, I did some PM work.... timing chain, water pump, hoses, belts, etc. At 200k, I did front end work except for the ball joints.

The tail pipe has been replaced 3 times........also had to replace the hvac control module somewhere along the way.

1995 Suburban is the best of the series..........without some of the bugs in later years....Still looks great as well!
