I've done the fluids (a few times at this point). Done the struts and tires (also a few times).


My wheels are straight...my A/C doesn't smell.


As for my Catalytic Converter, Oxygen Sensors, etc. I haven't touched them. Even my after market Magnaflow mufflers and resonator were installed when the Monte has less than 1K on it. Never touched since.


My Monte has 231K on it, runs like a new car and drive straight down the road, no vibrations, etc. Suspension is solid.

I'm glad I ran across your post and got top see the miles on your car. I parked mine two years ago with 197k miles on it. And now it's time to breathe new life back into it. This past weekend, I took it out of retirement and it's going to break that 200k mile mark after all.
