How many gears does this car have? 5? also, a part of the bumper is almost white because of the sun, and AGAIN the shift **** is all peeled thanks to the sun, what product should i use to restore the bumper? forever bumper black?

 

4 Gears

 

oh so it will give me the same issue the volvo 940 gave me or not? that when i was going at 60mph, the car was going at 2,600RPM. >_> or this car will behave differently?

 

The gearing is a little different.

 

so it wont do that to me? it will be lower than 2600RPM?

 

Not sure not sure which engine it has and what trans it has.

 

It has a 2.3 V5 TURBO its an 1996, and its automatic

 

Yes but there is different transmissions. For Automatics.

 

how can i know which one it has?

 

Sticker under Hood.

 

a sticker under the hood? it will say a number?

 

It should give you the engine Like 5244t for the engine it should also tell you the Trans Like aw55-50 or something like that.

 

ok, what else should i look for in this car? because im going tomorrow and i would like to know what falws to look for or what else to look for for further info

 

Surf the 850 Section and you wil find alot of info on what to look for.

 

I was surfing but couldnt really find anything >_>

 

when should the timing belt be changed?

 

70,000 miles

 

well the car has like 78,000, so when i go tomorrow ill ask them if it has been changed

 

Of course there's the usual things to look for:

Rust, corrosion..etc
Make sure the A/C works
check for any oil leaks <-- Very important
Yes, definatly ask him about the timing belt.

 

1. A/C is not working, they need to change like 4 parts in it for it to work
2. Odometer is not working, its stuck at 79k miles
3. Velocimeter(not sure if this is right) is not working, it wont show at the speed im going
4. I have to paint the engine hood, and the fenders
5. Bumper is WHITE, well is black and white.
