944s pre purchase inspection ?
Hello, guys.
I intend to inspect "87 944s (16 valve) with some "minor" front-end collision, which was repaired and the car what repainted. The car drives straight (per owner). What should I inspect and pay close attention to? |

Look for:
-engine oil leaks -power steering leaks -check clutch life/wear through inspection port -working gauges -body panels not lining up/frame damage/pinch welds -exhaust -suspension - bushings/ball joints/shocks -transmission shifts smoothly/clutch engagement smooth -belts (balance/timing) - last time changed? -water pump - last time changed?

Thanks, walfreyydo.
I checked most of the things you mentioned. Others were assumed old and in need of replacement. |
