Hi and welcome to the forum. 138K is just about delivery milage on the V6. If you look after her, she will do twice that.

Hi Sparticus and welcome aboard. Thumbs Up!

138k on a V6 is not too bad - my first Omega had 132k on the clock and ran smooth as silk, just watch out for leaking rocker cover gaskets.

Welcome to the site Smiley

138k is nothing for these engines Thumbs Up!


Cambelt and tensioners need to be done every 40k/4yrs. Cam cover gaskets can fail, but doable following our guides.


The suspension bushes can fail around that time, but again doable if you are handy with the spanners.
