1990 Oldsmobile 98 Touring Sedan review from North America
"It's reliable, comfortable and well appointed. The best car I've owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the mass airflow sensor at 240000 kms. That was the only unexpected repair I've done.
I had to replace the brakes a year ago, and all other maintenance is done at the proper intervals.
Body and drivetrain are all in very good shape.
General comments?
The Touring Sedan doesn't handle like a regular Olds; the suspension is considerably firmer.
The rear brakes are larger than the standard 98 Regency.
16 inch wheels versus the Regency 15's.
It's not the fastest or most nimble car on the road, but is a very decent mode of transportation.
