Default So who has the most miles on their DII?

So I am wondering who has the most miles on their DII with the original engine. Counting factory block replacements as original. My 2000 is sitting at 186k and going strong.

Well mine (2002) has 256K on it, never opened it and I just strictly service it per the LR maintenance schedule.

Always run on diesel engine lube oil from 15K on Mobil Delvac 1300 15/40.
Tremendo Carro.

My D2 TD5 has 121K miles and never been opened up or repaired. It's had a hard life towing as well, 20K miles probably @ 2.5 tons plus.

I'm at 218k miles on my 2001. I think the head gaskets were done in the past by a previous owner.

Ironically enough my '01 hit this yesterday as I parked in my driveway after work

Both driver and passenger side head gaskets are leaking externally

Just rolled 130K on my 04 DII. Going strong.

Head gaskets were done by a previous owner (I think) as was a valve job (I Know).


Going on a slightly long trip this weekend. Truck doesn't over heat nor does it eat coolant. It does burn a little oil but not bad.

Hoping to get 50K out of her before I get a 07 or 08 LR3 at the end of the year.

That's the plan any way.

I am at 195k miles with a mysterious coolant leak that I can't find.
