Can I get some more images of the interior and the back tint? I'm just curious if it's bubbly or good.

Also when did the EGR CEL come on and also when did the IMA light come on? And have you tried cycling the battery?

I will get pictures for you tomorrow, but the tint is good. The EGR light has been on since I bought it. It was bucking, so I unplugged the EGR and it went away. The IMA light came on for the first time a couple weeks ago. I cycled it and it is now off, but It may still have a code for it.

You mentioned that there were transmission issues. What kind of issues are you having? Only during downshifting or for both down and up?

blown240 · 04-28-2011, 10:51 AM

Its only during downshifting. Upshifting is perfect. The trans was actually worked on right after I bought it. I had new bearings, clutch and input shaft done. Too bad I didnt know about the synchros, or I would have done those too.

Just so everyone knows, I drive the car for work. I live by the beach, and work out in the desert. I go as far as the Arizona border. This is the car I have been using for the last year and a half. I put over 2000 miles on it last week, so it is totally driveable. The main reason I am selling it is because with a young family, I need 4 seats.

Good to know about the transmission. What's the condition of the tires/brakes?

Also, with the EGR, what are some of the issues with leaving it unplugged all this time? Or is it just a vacuum leak that really has no ill effects?

The EGR is still in the manfold, just not plugged in electrically. So there is no vacuum leak. I dont think there is any issues other than the light on. The rear tires are Potenzas that are still real good. The fronts are some cheapies that I had to put on when I was 500 miles from home and got some flats. Brakes seem fine, but its gonna need front pads soon.

Sounds good. When are you available to show the car?

Later today, later tomorrow, then depending on work, anytime next week. I am going to "move out" of it today, and get it washed.
