I know this is highly speculative, but has anyone an opinion of how long a properly maintained 1.4 turbo engine will last? At 20,000 a year, 50% highway, will it go 200,000 without major repairs? Have we any data on this yet?

Will it for example be as tough as the old 3.8 litre GM engine?

thanks,
Joe

Hard to believe it's been over five years since I started this thread. I now have 98,000 miles on my 1.4 turbo and all is well.

Any further feedback on the general durability of the 1.4 turbo? I'm hoping to make it to 200,000.

I would like to hit 200,000 also I just hit 71,000
