Re: Signing Off
Unfortunately, I had to trade them in to a dealer on a new car (the first new car that I've ever bought). There were some serious problems that would've significantly reduced the price that I would've been able to ask for as a private seller Some of them were:
'92 -- Giving indications of needing a new transmission. (stuttering response in the steering when going around turns like coming out of the driveway, or turning from one steet to another); ABS light on the instrument panel; radio antenna/mast needed replacement; driver's window stuck in the up position (not a major issue, window sleeve lock replacement).
'96 -- 'Check engine' light on due to bad O2 sensor on the left side. Sensor was frozen into the catalytic converter and may (probably?) would've needed a new catalytic; heater/AC mix door (a.k.a 'bypass door') not closing all the way. When the heat was on (or AC in the summer), when the car was stopped, outside air would get into the cabin. Heat or AC only seemed to work while the car was in motion; stutter in the brake pedal (felt like a tone ring, although no ABS light and no LED code)
I can do small repair/replace work, but I not able to do major work that would've been needed to part the car out (not to mention the loss of time to replace them).
