    Well mine is 2012 W8 which has always had major tech issues. Done abt 75000kms but almost every part except maybe engine has been changed. Authorized dealers in Delhi were outright thieves! Every servicing, Items used to go missing from car such as footmats etc. infotainment system went bad within 6 odd years & they said then that spares weren't avbl with company! After writing to top bosses, it finally got repaired (not replaced) tho with some minor issues which earlier dealers wr telling me wasn't possible. Their main income is through spares only! Then I started sending it to garage of an ex employee of authorized dealer. Suspension, steering, ac, clutch & gear & obviously tyres & battery also (these 2 are normal)- all systems have been replaced in these 10 odd years. Even now when it goes for normal servicing to a trusted garage, never comes back with expenses less than 20K approx....window rollers replaced dozens of times, door latches getting jammed regularly, regular wrong alerts etc etc....but when I do drive it, it's a beauty to handle. But for the waiting period, wudve replaced with XYV 700 but now many better models/ companies avbl. Btw, city mileage has never been over 9.2 (Diff cities like Kochi, Delhi, Mumbai) & highway around 12Km.

    Hi, No fixed Parameters to judge or to limit the life of any engine, it depends on a lot of factors. My XUV is touching 1.15L KMs, it is 5 years old but still performs like new, I used it for both, city driving and highways, it has never let me down so far. I have done non-stop solo trips in extremely rainy conditions, in extreme summers, and in extreme wintery condition as well, all such trips I'm talking are between 800 to 1200 KMs. Never a problem, ever! If you'll respect it, it will respect you back, if you'll abuse it, well, it will still reciprocate!With my engine, I'm sure I'm not gonna have any major issues in the engine before 5L KMs. Regards!
