I have some problems with it.
The alternator is weak so I have to replace it.
My head gasket is leaking preston onto the engine in the front and is also leaking oil into the preston. So I am looking at a little project for changing it. Anyways I hope that the oil leaking in the preston is coming from there and it isn't the block or head that is cracked.
There is also some oil getting into the spark plug chambers, probably an o-ring that is leaking.
Apart from this I am happy with it, it always gets me to were I want to go and the body is really nice, no rust.
Althought it isn't the most fun car to drive because it lacks power if I compare it to my friends Nissan Stanza witch is a very powerful 2.4 liter engine.
So in all a great first car!!
The is only one problem I am wondering about, is when I move with my hands the front left wheel there is some kind of loose in it. I move a little, in the same way as it would turn. So when I move it with my hands I hear like a tok, tok???
That tok tok is your universal joint, which is inexpensive if you do the work; not that hard, read! the book first though!
To check if that is what it is, get moving let, off the gas and turn. If no noise, then it is not that bad yet, then get moving and add power while turning. If the tokking is there, it is the front uni joint on the transaxle probably.
