And so much more. As already stated, cold starts but also spark plugs don't have to be changed nearly as frequently, catalytic converters plug up less, vehicles die more of old age rather than excessive mileage. Having said that, more problems now are due to faulty sensors than actual engine problems. I have had the engine light coming on in my truck (1998 Silverado 5.7)for over a year now. I scanned it with my handheld scanner and it's the EGR valve. Truck still runs just fine but from what I'm told it can affect your fuel mileage and eventually foul plugs etc. But if I didn't have the scanner I likely would have taken it to the shop and dumped a bunch of $$ into it.
Bottom line is that I've had it for 5-6 years and other than oil changes, I have not had to do a thing to it. It's now 12 years old and in the shop for a front end alignment. No parts needed, just alignment. It has apparently never been done in 12 years..........and it really wasn't driving all that badly but I hate driving straight with my wheel turning to the right!
