Great Advice! I too am a bit leary of the findings. I did get the mechanic to give me the following engine codes....
P0335
P0336
P1361
P1362
P1381
He also offered to fix one of my leaks...rear main seal, but its still up to me. Would leaks like the rear main seal, oil pan gasket or valve cover gasket be "show stoppers" for a private seller? None of these leaks drop oil on the pavement, they just build up on the engine.
Also, My mechanic from back home feels because those 2 sensors don't go bad at the same time and the engine codes that came back the car only needs a distributor. Does this sound about right?
