Re: 1994 855T Going Up for Sale after 28 Years


You could always try to post it on Cars and Bids. I think they have to accept it.

I tried Cars and Bids. They would not accept the auction because of the salvage title. I thought the condition and long maintenance record would compensate but it did not.

The car is now up for auction on eBay ...

1994 855T Brake Pedal Position Sensor Specs?

Before I take the time to tear apart my sensor I'd like to first measure the resistance of the potentiometer within the sensor. Does anyone have the specs at the ends of the plunger travel? It would be great if an 850 owner might be able to measure a good one directly as they're pretty easy to ...

Re: 1994 855T Going Up for Sale after 28 Years

A few more pics posted from yesterday. To anyone interested I’m willing to drive the car half way up to 250 miles to complete a sale.

What’s it worth to you?

Top Image is from 2019 after a car wash. Since that time the only difference is a small paint scrape on the lower front bumper that you can see in a subsequent pic. All other images I took 08Oct2023.

1994 855T Going Up for Sale after 28 Years

So this past weekend Wifey and I replaced the PVC system on our (her) two owner beige wagon and after the job decided to sell the car and finally purchase something with modern safety features. I'm writing this now to memorialize all I've recently done to the car and prepare the 'For Sale' ad ...

Re: Resetting Oil Life Countdown <5K Miles? (1994 855T)

Thx guys.

I know how to track my old change intervals but I'm wondering if the computer service counter can be reset to 'zero' prior to the service light actually coming on.
