How to sell a car that leaked and has some mold now?
2012年5月20日 · Hi, I am trying to sell a car that was part of my mother’s estate. It was left in the rain this winter and leaked - into the trunk and back seat. Once the weather warmed up, mold grew in the car. I am not sure how to sell it now. The blue book says it is worth $5300 in excellent condition (which it was in before the leak).
Selling a car with out-of-state title/registration/plates
2013年9月17日 · In the early 1990’s my friend moved to California with a two year old Mazda Protege purchased in Nevada and paid a $600 emissions penalty. I believe that went away in the ninty’s. California won’t accept a new car without California emissions package. I have seen new car sales “unwinds” because the buyer was a California resident and ...

2010年5月2日 · On Selling Your Car To A Former Friend: As others have pointed out, this can be risky. I’d let my friend in on this theory and maybe even use some of the money (that discounts the car below fair market value) to have the condition of the whole car thoroughly assessed by a competent mechanic.

Why would someone sell a car with low mileage
2007年7月18日 · There are as many reasons as there are people. People lease cars for two years and turn them in. People move or get married, or decide they don’t need a car. You never know. I recently bought a low-mileage used car from a fellow who was moving to Japan to teach English. There is no reason to be suspicious of low mileage.
New car document fees - General Discussion - Car ... - Car Talk …
2024年2月2日 · I haven’t purchased a new car for 17 years. I am finding that every dealer has posted signs stating that they will charge $399 - $799 for document preparation. Did this come during the crazy covid market time? I am also finding published invoice prices that seem too high ($29K on a 30K car). What is the real story about dealer profit margins? Do they really just …
Help! I'm moving abroad for 28 months - Car Talk Community
2008年2月9日 · Theoretically, you should be able to sell it now and buy a 2008 model when you get back. However, a manual transmission CRV is a somewhat rare vehicle-- they didn’t sell many of them and I don’t think you can get a manual CRV new anymore-- and if you really like this car, it may not be quite as simple to just buy a new one when you get back.

2011年1月18日 · I have a 2006 Honda Civic LX 4 dr sedan with 45,000 miles that I am trying to sell, as I’m getting a new car. The problem is I have several dents and scrapes on the car. I’ve gotten estimates and it will cost ~$2800 to fix the body damage. Other than the body damage, which is only cosmetic, the car runs great and has been well-maintained. Should I fix the …
Who designs automatic transmissions? - Car Talk Community
2024年10月18日 · Manufacturer’s agree to provide repair parts back 10 model years. If you fall into a hole where parts are no longer serviced and the aftermarket hasn’t stepped up, the car becomes scrap unless you can find a swap alternative. And some states (cough… California) have rules that make that darn near impossible to swap and register.
Replace a catalytic converter? To pass an ... - Car Talk Community
2013年3月7日 · I ask is it really necessary to replace a catalytic converter (at ~ $1200 and up) after the check engine came on, and one of two mechanics said a bypass valve was plugging up, and the solution is to replace the “second” catalytic converter. This car, a Prius, has twice failed a State inspection of auto emissions. The diagnostic codes were (at first) P 171 and P1436; but …
