    Unless you got a tool box and diving head first in it you won't find anything suspicious there have been cases where a major impacted car is done in hurry only to have a light hit somewhere else on the body so the value comes up and unsuspecting people getting trapped...

    I had unfortunate few hours on the day of Eid for running hot the water jacket on the block leaked spilling all the water mixed with Lil bit of coolent while on my way back from AUD as it reached the red mark I would just switch off the engine and be coasting until the speed dropped real low the start it again and acclerate back up to 100 or 120 all the while keeping and eye on the heat gauge and once in awhile parking to refill water up...was a crazy day

    Better to flush completely and start using Toyota pink coolent as it has better rust protection and has property's to seal minor leak's too...

    Some boosters develop rust and dust in them then they make sound when friction affects it while pressing the brakes it's normal until the Bellow itself starts to leak...then things will go south a little bit...

    The sentras wonderful millage is because of it's cvt transmission...which is gonna save you few bucks but long term ownership will make you eligible for a bank banging 3500 repair work of cvt overhaul...to be exact after every 150k to 220k kms have yet to see one who's crossed 250k.... And as for the xj sale I remember someone had agreed on a clean auto in exchange for a manual one... I agree with the 430 it has all the fun and prestige plus you'll own the road and grow a bigger set of balls 😂

    Should open it up and take a look inside could be that the cable or linkage on the inside are not moving the way it should hence the door not opening...

    For old oil we can put new oil while the drain is open so as soon as new oil starts to come out we can close the drain bolt. But it's new oil which could add a liter more in price of changing oil price...and yet the heavier things still are there in the sump itself unless you open the sump and clean it manually....

    And regarding the electrical thing you could have taken the power from the source...taking positive from the fuse box is a bad idea...

    Give it 30 to 90 seconds for oil pump to lubricant the engine and off you go in normal driving if you are going to push it hard as soon as it starts then it's better to wait for the engine to reach operating temperature so you can be throttle happy and enjoy the performance Most turbo cars have a delay timer which leaves the engine running even after ignition switched off and doors locked which will turn off the engine after reaching it's required temperature

    Cars will always have give and take relationship with you as it takes you where you want and regardless wants you to take care of it by preventive maintenance...now here lies the problem people don't want to spend but only drive... I have seen people ignoring my advice to Change the break pads but later on come back on a tow truck with a major damaged front end.. Ignoring my advice of changing the radiator but later on coming back with a busted radiator or burned head gasket... Then they say that owning xyz car was expensive because it always had something up. I agree that some cars are lemons but not all cars are same that's why it's always better to research and get second or third opinion before you put your money in a car as it will save you much more hassle in the long run...

    From seeing this i believe that you always have to improvise with what you have as what's in your hand is much better then those hiding in the bush

    8 10 drives is never enough it's a continuous learning process being in group drives you get to experience many aspects which you might not experience

    Go to Jeep scrap regularly and who knows what you might stumble upon metal bumpers roof rakes performance mods all used but at almost half price but always carry cash with you as it will not be there for long those things go up pretty early...
