ccv failed and let too much oil through. Led to an overspeed which made a new engine cheaper than a rebuild.
Front bumper is just the fascia clips. Body is *fine. No accidents, minor bits of parking lot dings if you look closely. No rust damage as far as I can tell (it's a west coast car for...
Before I forget - we made one last run on it. Bounced out to camp on the coast at Camp Merriweather (kids are scouts) for a family weekend. Day tripped up to Astoria. Handled fine on the gravel stuff. Took a twisty route home. Still grin inducing.
Okay - and here's me being a good forum member (been here since 2003!) and telling you what's wrong with it.
1) ghost sunroof activation. Only when the car's running. I suspect mystery veedub electrical issues. Thankfully it only ghosts up/down and doesn't open.
2) I'm not in a smogged area. I...
Okay. Mostly functional. I would not hesitate to drive cross country in it. There's minor issues that are more time than money that could use fixing. But we did just upgrade to a 2021 model so we need the parking room. 1 owner car, 10k maintenance intervals observed. Lots of <3 to the guys at...
Oh I definitely could. There are no showstoppers and everything could be repaired with enough time and energy. Which I'm short of these days, and I might as well take advantage of the rebates.

And...

Bilstein HDs all around, tow springs in the back. Air bags haven't been used in a while but were handy when we did tow with it. Used to go on a lot of trailheads with it as well.
Durable .. well it's been 3 years, second set of rubber. No issues so far - had to replace the stock 15s (enough...
I didn't think I'd post here again :P
Old tires had way too many slow leaks (was trying to make 'em last just a little longer) ..

Hello Vredestein Quatrac Pro A/Ws
Heh I'm on my 3rd oil pan. First one was on some tracks in s. seattle. Went a mite fast. :CRUNCH: .. plug bent in. Second was on the way down from a hike. After that - got the skid, but it was a little tight and make a hairline crack over some terrain. Slow leak at that point - but when I...
