QuestionI'm looking at a one owner with 43,000 miles. I'm about to get it checked by a mechanic-- what should I make sure they look for-- any known problems with the model and year that need special attention during inspection?
Answergood car if it has had routine maintenace, check the usual - rust , especially in floor boards, trunk, shock towers
Check for Cam noise - known problem - ticking or clicking noise coming from under cam cover- could indicate worn lobes, oiler malfunction ect
engine - should start without a fuss, even idle at 800 or so RPMS
Tranny - smooth but solid shifts
AC - cold?
Cruise - working?
check for vents open and closing - heat cool - some issues on this car with climate control
Good luck, let me know how else I can help
