IQ3 with high mileage

[Iceman29]

Hi,

I recently sold my IQ3 (which I’ve regretted ever since) and have seen another one with 140,000 miles on the clock. Are there any issues or things to look out for with mileage that high?

 

I’m not scared of high mileage cars at all but just want some advice/tips on the IQ3.

 

many thanks!

The clutch would be my worry mines on a 113,000 and I'm dreading that bill.  Wet floors with the A/C leaking but thats a easy fix.

Thanks for the input.

I ended up buying it yesterday. The gearbox/gear changes are more direct and feels better than my last IQ which had done 90k. Clutch biting point is a little high but overall I’m very happy. Has the facelift interior and aftermarket sat nav screen as well.

To refer back to your comment, are clutches more expensive on an IQ than other cars or are you just dreading it because it’s another big expense?

 

thanks

I tend to get my jobs done at toyota as its just piece of mind for me, I'm sure other garages can fit a new clutch there is a youtube video but every thing is tightly packed in and i sooner have someone that should know what there doing.
