I was not nice to her, I was doing 80- 90 mph a lot and I never felt like the rubber band was going to pop. I will say our g4 does dance around on the road being so little and the tires having a smaller contact patch. when I was going slower and keeping the ECO in she was sipping the gas, best on the idiot gauge was 50.1 and worst was 28 mpgs AC blasting all the time . I do wish I had the oem led head lights like I seen on a few peoples Mirage's but I didn't even know we could get that till after we got ours . next week when im off of work ill be doing the 2nd oil change on her. for what these cars are they rock!!! I got a few videos to post of her doing hills and some heavy rain just not there yet. have a great day and keep the awesome info coming.
A CVT fluid and filter change would be highly recommended before 30k miles if you've driven under these circumstances. Heat is the killer of CVT's and our CVT cooler in the Mirage is lackluster at best.
