I have a high mileage car that I would like to keep for as long as possible.
My car will occasionally have huge issues upon start-up if I haven't driven it in over a day. It will run rough, buck and threaten to stall then after a few minutes of running, it will all of sudden "catch" and work fine from there on out. It is almost like it needs its morning coffee.
I have changed the O2 sensor, plugs/wires, fuel filter and do regular oil changes. However, at one point after a trip my oil dropped to the point that the light came on.
Lastly, my transmission fluid seems to need replaced alot these days.
