Re: How many miles on your V6?
hmm, so with a few exceptions, it sounds like our cars are holding up OK. 
might want to try wearing some lighter shoes.

I think I'm "stuck with it" because it's still showroom condition but worth nothing, it would be a loss to try to sell it

I've burned oil on ocasion in the past, but very little, maybe 1/4 -1/2 a quart over 3,000 miles, but not lately.

Somewhere near the engine oil drain plug closes to the exhaust system.

1993 3.4 liter, 202,750 miles on completely unrebuilt engine and m5 transmission. Hell, I think the rear end is even original in this thing. Just a small rear main seal leak, but runs really well. I love my car.
