Hi
Mine went at 130K - top end was scrap metal afterwards. Much simpler and cheaper to just swap out the engine. Do yourself a favout though and replace with a 3.0L from a 9000 as the extra power and torque really transforms the car and doesn't hurt fuel consumption either. The ecu handles it happily right through the range.
