Hey guys,

I am looking to buy a C5, found a few, got some information back from one of the sellers, service reports, clean title , etc.. I was wondering if any of ya'll could look at it and give your opinions? It's a .doc file, so if you wouldn't mind helping me I could send it via e-mail to ya. I just wanted to make sure that it's not a lemon or gonna crap out on me based on the past service reports (might not even be bad, could be just maintenance) but just want to make sure

TIA

Kasp!

 

you could cut and paste it into a PM and ship it that way - I'd look at it for you...

or send it to my Yahoo account (same userid)

 

PM sent, I didnt think it would cut/paste proeperly (why i didnt initially include with post) But it turned out readable so I'll post it here as well, TIA again! Car currently has 34k miles on it from what I was told.

Sent you PM response - it certainly has a rich history. Maybe others will chime in with their thoughts too.

 

Whomever owned this car certainly stayed after it and didn't let things go. The car certainly did seem to have more than it's share of problems. The ones that would bother me the most are the ECL RELAY HARNESS being replaced twice within 200 miles and the BCM having to be replaced.

I do NOT know enough about this car but if I were thinking of buying it and THEN read this report, I'd pass this one up and continune looking.

That is just MY opinion, I am NOT an expert by any means.

The previous owner seems to have cared for the car pretty well, just the cars seems to have had too many problems for me.
