🛠️ Notes:
– Engine light: was on for 2+ years, mechanics diagnosed it as a non-critical sensor issue (code 16555 – fuel trim bank 1 too lean, likely short to B+). It doesn't affect performance and the car has driven perfectly the whole time. The light has now been cleared, but it may return eventually.
– Headliner recently sagged — has been fixed with pins
– Passenger roof light button broken (bulb removed)
– Rear left seat doesn’t fold (spring issue)
– Regularly maintained and serviced. Engine runs smooth
Still in daily use — clean, honest car with years of life left. Cheap to run, cheap to insure, and ready to go.
