The blinker "works" in the steering head was replaced at 200k.
The alternator replace at 110k.
The starter replaced at 180k.
The waterpump replaced at 210k.
Thermostat replaced 2 times, 125k and 240k.
Repainted at 100k, and is now peeling.
This has been the best family car I have ever owned and has never rusted. This is the model without power windows, but has AC (still cold) and power steering/brakes and it all works and never worked on in 250k!
It has always use about 1 quart of oil in between oil changes, even did this when it had only 100k on it.
The springs/struts/front-end is now worn as the rest of the car, but who can blame it. This was mostly city driving.
I did all the oil changes/work myself except the blinker and paint.
The serpentine belt, replaced 4 times.
Tire size 15k (all 4) has been replaced 3 times.
The disk pads every 40k.
I appreciate your record of repairs. I am currently looking at a 1995 Lumina Sedan 3.1L non-LS. I wanted to know what others thought of it and what repairs I would be making down the road. Every used car will need some work eventually. It's better to be aware of what may come.
