Mine is similar, but burns a little bit of oil (not any more than it ever has though). I see no indication that these things aren't going to last another several hundred thousand miles. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

With proper maintenance and no abuse the 3.4 should go >500K without major component failure.

I have almost 200k on mine, bought it with 175k on it. The only thing that bugs me is the oil pressure drops pretty low on the meter when it warms up. It purrs and pulls though.

My original motor died at 156k. It threw a cam threw the front of the head. I beleave it to be because the original owner didn't change the oil very often. But the new motor has run great ever since.
