Depends. Do you have monster truck tires and/or desert tires on or just regular RFT's or equivalent? Obviously you NEVER want to do that, as it can put unneeded stress on the drive line and/or transmission. However, the slots the wheels go into in those car washes were probably so loaded up with soap and water, you just slipped right along the entire time.
I do not claim to be an expert, but I can't imagine much damage (if any) was done. And holy crap! 100k miles on a 2008? I am about to hit 49k on my 2007 and every time I get in to drive, I pray to the God I don't believe in that nothing breaks. |

I think you're right. I have regular all season tires and as a result of getting the tire shine all 4 wheels were thoroughly sprayed down which probably helped them slide along. It probably also helped that the tires tread is nearing the bars as they have 55,000 miles on them.
I've slowed down the pace of the mileage in the last 6 months but it only took my 3 years and 4 months to get to 100,000. Thanks for your reply, monto |

I had to have the transmission replaced at 95,000 miles. Thankfully my dealer paid half out of good will and I now have a new transmission with 2 year unlimited mile warranty. Nothing major other than that.

My sentiments exactly. The fact that I only had to pay 50% made it much easier to stomach.
