Vehicle Detail
I've owned this car about 5 years and put about 23,000 miles on it. Always garaged. Everything works as it should except engine repair needed as mentioned. I have replaced the ECU and gave it a major tune up (the usual plus coil packs) about 8,000 miles ago. The engine turns over but just burps occasionally. The engine seems to be just as hard to hand crank as before so I expect there is compression but this is a guess. The buyer should assume the worse - rebuild of the valve assembly. I have no explanation as to why the timing was correct when rechecked. The car has never burned oil. Tires are good. I'm getting a little too old to tinker with it anymore.
