I bought the exact same car. When I bought it, it look good to me. The next day I continued to drive it I started to hear rumbling on the left rear. I'm not sure what it is but I think it could be the bushings. And also I noticed the door panels are different color leather. I called the dealership they said that they can't do anything for me and that I should of caught it before I bought it. Is there anything I can do? If so please email me @ reyes.e86@gmail.com
Ive watch several of these videos and they usually inspect a car which has no problems at all so its kinda hard to know what they mean is some of the things.. They should use a piece of crap car instead! :)
First off don't buy from a Used car lot, try a private party first. Original owner if you can find one, that has maintenance records since new. If a dealer then a CPO or certified pre-owned. Ask them to provide a CarFax or the VIN so you can do a CarFax. That will show if it had a poor history. Sometime minor fenderbenders are not reported and not in the CarFax, so keep that in mind. I have bought and sold many BMWs, Mercedes, and other Euro cars.
I've been looking at an 2004 BMW 525i with 52,000 miles on it for about $17,000. I'm kind of cautious about buying a used car. But can't afford a brand new BMW. So my question hoping someone answers lol. Should I avoid buying a used BMW like this and just stick with like a Volkswagen? Or Should I give the used BMW a try?
what should a mechanic look for when inspecting a used car that im interested in buying.or is there a check list i could have so that i can make sure he knows what he's doing. the last used car i bought ended up haveing major engine problems. problems that i feel should have been noticed by the Mechanic that checked it out for me
uhm everything lol, just tell whoever ur buying the car from to take it to a mechanic with you. and fuck your ol its 3 dollars a bottle and oil change u can do urself, fram oil filters arent more than 10 bucks. and if its a or any luxury car stay away cuz ull spend more on repairs than the whole car. like a beemers tranny if it needs to be replaced is gona be close to 4000$, and i doubt u wanna spend that just for a tranny u could prolly buy two civics that will last you longer.
ummm the guy made a good effort, but hes saying get it to a mechanic and check underneath. alot of folks miss the obvious things, check the AC and heat works, the AC wd lok gr8 in winters so inspect it thoroughly. the check engine light, alwys lok underneath the car for leaks, rust, exhaust damage. the car shdnt dip excesively when u break. check for gaps in the doors, panels for door replacement etc, sometime cars r painted, the parts r just replaced. chk carpets, bakseats, tears, spills
another thign you can do is open the trunk and lift the flap and look there for inward dents this will make it very obvious if it has been in previous accident
Please take note of when the comment was made. Also, no not everyone understands car lingo. If I threw some PC lingo at you it might make your head spin.
what lingo? Hood, brakes, transmission, shift, windows,radio, oil, strange noises. If you can't figure these out, you probably shouldn't own a car lol.
Thankyou for these tips

I agree with Madsipuli. They should use a messed up car and spot out all the problems... It'd definitely make it more interesting.
