That is very impressive! My 2002 SAAB 9-5 V6 has 180K town miles. Probably 90% of the miles are literally running around town, grocery shopping, errands, Doctors, Work. Mine was eating water pumps like candy until I got an OEM from England. No more issues since. My SAI pump falied at 160K and I bought one for a Buick new and cheap and moved stuff across from the SAAB. My SAI failed pump was full of water/rust so instead of replacing all the piping and check valves. I drilled a 3/16" hole in the SAI pipe near the bottom as a drain. I've had camshaft seals leak, valve cover gaskets, radiator failed, oil cooler under warranty, and not sure what else. Last summer I used my OEM tools cylinder leakdown tester and leakdown averaged 4% which I find amazingly excellent. Doesn't burn oil but has some leaks. I like my V6 FWIW. Congrats on 325k miles!
