After 14 years of owning this car most of that time being on this forum it's my opinion that all mileage is not equal when it comes to this issue. If the miles were from daily driving where not-IMS-friendly contaminants are regularly burned off and the car is not left parked sitting in this stew, the better.

If the mileage is mostly from long stints with long periods of sitting parked with long oil change intervals...not better.

One forum member here had over 300k miles but daily drove the car for more than an hour obviously and maintained a strict oil change regiment. He said "what's an IMS?"
