Default 200,000 miles...

Hit the big 200K today. Now no snide remarks about how I shouldn't even post mileage til I've hit at least 400K or how my car is barely even broken in yet

Non maitenance items replaced to date:

1) Radiator.
2) Power steering return line o-ring.
3) Alternator (because I let the power steering leak go too long).
4) Alternator again (because the first time I replaced it with a Bosch instead of factory OEM).
5) Lock key switch in drivers door.
6) Complete interior restoration.

Tell me more about this driver's lock key switch. How did you know it needed replacing? I'm asking because my driver's side door lock is acting up a little right now. It's somewhat difficult to turn without jiggling the key for a bit.

As for the PS return line o-ring, what did that repair run? Thanks for the info

It's just a sensor switch that reads the current rotation of the key cylinder. Our's broke and the car kept locking itself when you try to unlock it. Sometimes the alarm would go off instead.
