Mileage: ~180k
Color: Silver/Charcoal
Transmission: Automatic
VIN: YV1LZ56D1X2626885
I bought this car in May with the intention of fixing it up and keeping it as a daily driver. When I got it, I fixed a few items and drove it as a daily for about a month while my R was being fixed. I would love to finish it off and keep it, but I really don't have the time to work on it anymore.
Let's start with The Good
The following work was done in the last few months:
-New battery
-Replaced CVVT solenoid
-Replaced upper engine mount with poly bushing
-Replaced firewall mount with OEM type
-Replaced cabin filter
-Replaced heater core
-Replaced ABS module
-Replaced Front O2 sensor
-Replaced Air Filter
-Replaced Spark Plugs
-Replaced front left caliper
-Flushed brake fluid
-Transmission flush performed with Mobil 3309 Synthetic
The following was performed by the previous owner within the last few years/30k miles:
-Timing Belt
-Radiator
-Coolant tank
-Xemodex ETM
And here are some general items:
-Pads have plenty of life on them (well over half)
-Rotors appear to have life on them (just the slightest lip can be felt)
-Tires are newer and all match
-Moonroof works well and does not leak
-Leather is in good shape, minimal cracking and still reasonably soft
-Car has Alpine CDE-W235BT Double Din receiver installed, with Bluetooth. Unless this is negotiated into the price, car will come with stock SC-816 unit in working condition with radio code.
-Car comes with working driveshaft/VC, albeit disconnected. Previous owner had VC repaired and never installed these items back. I have been driving with them disconnected for the time being.
-Transmission flush performed by previous owner at 150k
-Car shifts well, never bangs into gear
And now, The Bad
-Rear left quarter panel has small crease behind wheel well
-Rear right quarter panel is hazy/scratched
-Driver's seat forward/backwards switch is broken, motor works just fine
-One of the fog lights doesn't work
-A/C does not work (tried recharge, stayed cold for a day, obvious leak somewhere...)
-Needs PCV system (have the parts, can negotiate into price)
-Slight ticking at idle, worse on hot days. Suspected sump rings, will throw in ring kit and Volvo gasket sealant
-Front struts are original, front passenger side strut mount needs replacement at a minimum
-Rear shocks seem to be in better shape than fronts, but could probably use a change
Asking $1700
Photos: Flash makes the seats look rougher than they are IMO. Sorry for the car being dirty.
