Pls at what engine mileage does a vehicle start to suffer from fatigue for an I4 engine. The vehicle is a toyota corolla 2004 and it has gotten to 200000km. Is their any noticeable effect i would feel when driving beyond this point.

2000000km is equivalent of 125k miles which is still OK. so far ur car is given proper maintainance when due and u avoid Kazeem as much as possible , u are good to go.

cheesy because they are very simple cars.

well I have seen a VOLVO car with 400000+ mileage still sound.
if you take care of your car well it could last a life time. I mean good cars like Benz, BMW, Volvo, Ford and the likes

Some cars are reported to have done more than a million miles. The record belongs to a 1966 Volvo with close to 3million miles on the clock! 125k is nothing. Meanwhile, the odometer is not connected to the engine, but final drive.

1st you need to understand that the odometer is not connected to the engine but the wheels.
so odometer could run 200k km on 3 engines (replacement one after another packup).
2nd is if your engine is well maintained, it can actually run the body till warn out.
3rd is Volvo av a High mileage Club in Europe where High milage is a pride and you get the 1st badge as a member when your odometer hits 500,000km.
so my Volvo V40 2001 is 265,238km and still rocking it. if allowed, I want to drive the car till it hits 1,000,000km.

so bros, pls rock your ride on and maintain it well. it can serve for a life time.�
