Casey, The wagon was a project. The engine was a oily mess, injector pump leaking, water pump leaking, air conditioner inoperative, vacuum system problems - engine won't shut off - water leaks in rear from rear hatch - Engine was hot on my arrival but did start fine. Power seats blow fuses, speedometer states 129xxx but has not worked in a while. Steering tight but tracks bad, transmission shifts ok to about 40 mph then will not go into 4th until slowing down, then shifts into 4th with a thump. Something flapping under the hood or front on the car above 40 mph - managed only to 45 mph on a slight incline turbo may not be kicking in (plugged sensing line?). Interior needs more than TLC I could go on and on. I do not have enough time to assist the daughter with the work it needs.
Getting back into the daughter car with 306,7xx mils other than the steering slop her car was 10 times better than the wagon - she thought she had a winner until she got to look at it. I can put you in touch with the 'new owner' if you wish.
