Winnie :: 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage RF (Garage entry)

[Dirk Diggler]

Car is around 55k now, had the CVT serviced last year before Mentor Mitsubishi closed.

Still doing well! No problems really whatsoever.

Man, your a good brother taking care of your sister's car like that. I do the same for my wife but that's just because she doesn't get what an oil change is. She had a 2007 Mustang that somehow she got to 2019 doing oil changes every 10k miles I'm guessing? I'm amazed the Stang lasted as long as it did with total neglect. I guess because it's their halo car they put stronger parts in it.

Yeah, over time I've been able to hand off alot of stuff to her boyfriend, which has been nice.

The car is around 68k now, still no issues and looks like the day we got it. One of the center caps lost it's paint due to uv damage. Amazing little car!

Oh and she paid it off earlier this year!

10k mile oil changes ain't no big deal. Probably just fine. I'm guessing rental cars NEVER get an oil change. Possibly right before they sell them because some buyers pull dipsticks.

Updates:

About 76k now. Still averaging mid 40s MPG.

No issues. Finally going to replace the summer tires (Enasaves) this year. lol

Chawesome! Winnie is a heckuva good vehicle.

This car is still hanging on, no real issues. I've become a bit of an area Mirage Mechanic...

Two of her friends and a friend of mine has one now.

I just helped them out with the green one, caliper failed and they were about 15k over their oil change. Had about a quart left and a VVT code..lol Changed the oil, codes gone runs fine.



Belts, plugs, brakes and cvts. All these cars ever need.

Amazing how durable these cars are.
