Holy crap.. that's awesome! You're talking Miles right?... Not Kilometers?

Have you had any problems with timing chain guides/tensioners wearing out on your car, or any specific problems that have repeated themselves more than once such as the rear axle click or door window actuators, etc?

The only problem I have is the driver door lock doesn't work, so I have to lock it manually. Other than that nope hahaha I'm the third owner, the first two were both over 55 yrs old. The car has been meticulously maintained (oil chaned every 5,000Km's) and as such there haven't been any leaks, squeaks or whatnot. The only thing I've replaced were the front pads and shoes.

AND they both drove it all season long, through hard Alberta winters. I won't be doing that though, so she's getting parked as soon as snow hits the ground.

So I'm going to assume you mean your 286,000 is Kilometers and not Miles... since you mentioned you live in Canada and also you mentioned your oil changes intervals in Km's. That equates to about 177,000 Miles for those of us in the United States.

My freaking left door actuator is going out. Sometimes when I press unlock on the key it doesn't unlock.

Still runs like its new too, the only thing I hate about the high mileage is when I go resell it I doubt I'll get more than $8,000. Regardless of how much money I drop into it.

That's how much my mileage was when I bought mine.
