New Purchase
I am looking at a 2002 CrossCountry with 80,000 miles. Is there anything I should look for?

RE: New Purchase
look for a good time, cause that is what you will get.
Open each door and look for paint tape lines aka rough edge from painted repairs Check owners manual for recent service Take vin to dealership and make sure recalls have been done Drive and enjoy the experience of a very weird transmission Look for surging on acceleration wear a glove and pull tranny dip stick look at fluid on white cloth: Black is bad and typical burned Brown is good but worn Red is recent flush make sure all options work Take car to gravel topped parking lot and make sure awd works you can tell when it happens listen for front end noises if youhave them they are usually end links, lower control arm bushings,strut bearings. etc purchase a warranty that will cover tranny Make sure they have both keys and transponders otherwise be prepared to charge you left arm and a leg for new ones look underneath for dents scrapes and gouges to determine previous use hummmm that about what i did. I think i got a steal for an 01 with 127k for 6500. |

Is a weird transmission a good thing?
