Default 300k miles...!
2000 RX300
Original Engine/trans (powertrain), axles, hubs, bearings, driveshaft.
3 Timing belts
Replaced rear main, torque conv seal at around 200k
Re-sealed coolant galley (under intake manifold) @260k
15-20k drain/fill trans fluid (Toyota T4)
Of course, only the rear hatch actuator works. lol
But everything else is operable.
