Maintenance issues over 100k?
Just curious if any ES 300 drivers (97-01 style) have had any issues as the mileage increases? I have had some slight issues in starting the car (slight stall in colder weather) ...Curious if there have been any major maintenance issues experienced by others? Also what are the general costs of the regular services over this interval. I read through the manual and see there are a lot of recommended replacements, etc. Just curious what others are shelling out for services over 100K miles.

My 98 has 220K miles on it right now.
The main thing is timing belt and water pump if you haven't done those yet.
I had to replace that 2 times at the dealer which cost me $800 or so each time.
They also found additional items that I was not aware of.
That always seem to happen.
Additionally just some minor things like light bulbs, gas cap, etc.
Still drives well and the best part is, its carefree. I never worry about it not starting.
