How many miles now? This really depends on how well you maintain it and your repair budget.

i bought my 1998 Oldsmobile 88 almost a year ago at 119k miles, i now have roughly 152k on her now. the car has been wonderful to me. it rides smooth and gets great gas mileage. i have only had one big scare with it so far and it was just a simple tune up of a new coil packs, also added a new thermostat so the car would run cooler. change oil every 4-5k miles. rotate tires, check fluids. also had to add a ac compressor but that was nothing.. the 3800 series engines will truly run forever if you take good care of them. also have a buddy who has a 1998 Oldsmobile 88 and he just hit 360k miles...

I have a 1999 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight and it has been acting real sluggish like it doesn't want to go it does fine on the highway but when you stop at a light or stop sign and then go it acts like it doesn't want to go. The spark plugs were changed in it and then it wouldn't start then we got a new battery and it started up then died and nothing works no lights anything. Does anyone know what could be the problem and how we could get it checked out with it not running? 2 Answers

Why is it so hard to start my car? I have 98,000 miles on it and I just had the timing chain and fuel pump and fuel filter replaced. I can't get it started usually in the cold months. It keeps turning over but it takes sometimes 45 minutes of trying to start it before it gets started. I have tried using starting fluid but it still takes a long time. Once I get it started it is fine for the rest of the day. It will start right up. But if I let it sit overnight it will have the same problem in the morning. I also just put a new alternator and battery in it and all the trying to start it is just wearing the battery down to where I have to hook the jumper cables up to another car to try and get it started. Thanks. 1 Answer
