As expected
I hope Toyota reliable is going up
Socty is it worth to buy 1000 dollar 2001 corola with 278k km
Hi Scotty, What do you think about 2005 350ML? Are these old Mercedes any good? Thanks :)
Hey scotty! What do you think about 2016 audi q3? Are they reliability or parts not to expensive?
Me: Hey Scotty!! How ‘bout my beautiful fiancée??! Isn’t she gorgeous??
Scotty: Huge money pit. I’d walk away.
hahahaha what a legend ;D

So true on both accounts
Some of these questions crack me up. "Say, Scotty. Just wondering what you think of a used Audi".
Oh, new guy eh? 😉

Maybe he meant to show a picture of an Audi... an endless money pit... lol
Cruzes are junk
@@thomasdarby6084 The days that GM made good cars are mostly over, the only ones worth buying are the Camaros and Corvettes.

Hey Scotty,
I've watched your videos ever since I was planning to get my first car. Not only did you teach me how to fix my car but you gave some good advice about other things. I don't usually comment on RUclips or anything else as a matter of fact but I felt i should express my gratitude. Keep making awesome vids bud.
is it just me or did i miss the whole crv part
boosted b16a lol right it was like forty seconds

“Even for Volkswagen , That’s got to be some kinda record...”..Hahahaha
3 blown head gaskets within a 30K mile range = an avg. of 1 blown head gasket per 10K miles.. Shaking My Damned Head..
Lol
Haha
KMPNY I hate my effing lemon 🍋 Volkswagen Beetle convertible. But I hate the service even more! If you sneeze the electrical goes haywire. I’ve had more recalls and battery changes and ABS issues than years of ownership. 32 k miles. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬. Tires didn’t last either. My college Chevy lasted longer and it was 2nd hand. These bastards are so lazy they won’t even look up your warranty info without complaining.
Can't believe people are still asking are audis bmws and vws good cars
Lol
Obviously not, especially if they haven’t been maintained well at all. I have an 2009 Passat that has been pretty much nothing but a headache mainly. German cars aren’t that great.
MONEY PITS
MONEY PITS
MONEY PITS!!!!
Newbies I guess. I had a coworker who wanted to buy a used Mercedes Benz ML with over 100k miles. He said Mercedes are very reliable. He wasn’t asking me, he was telling me. LOL!
I’ve noticed it’s always people who just want to look rich 😂 Trying to look rich is going to have them broke maintaining a German car
Who else is watching this right after his "Is The Honda CR V Better Than The Rav 4" video?
I had a 2017 crv 1.5 turbo. Loved the look and feel while driving. But this 1.5 turbo is junk. We had 15000 km on this vehicle and the oil was black and smelled like gas. We had the supposed fix done but nothing changed. Plus the cvt transmission is costly if you need repairs. We dumped this vehicle and bought a rav4. It has a normal transmission and a 2.5 litre non turbo transmission. The problem with the 1.5 litre engine is it needed the turbo to get the horsepower up on a small engine. But the fuel pressure being greater got into the gas. Do your self a favour and buy a rav4 or Mazda suv.
@Jonathan Brea Good question. My daughter has a 2020 Mazda CX-5. She loves it. We have the rav4 2019. They both give great reviews. Both better than crv. I like the rav only because I still have my 2000 Toyota Sienna van with minimal rust.
@Jonathan Brea No problem brother. You won’t be disappointed. Take care.
@Jonathan Brea oh and if your thinking hybrid just research about the gas tank. I think they had a issue with filling only to 3/4 full. If your just going regular engine then no issue there.
I need that link
We're living in a screwing and scaming era...
Nothing new, welcome to the real world..
Real English yeah def getting worse
Thank God for bright spots like the Scotty Kilmer Channel tho!
Everytime I see this types of videos, I just wanna buy a Celica 🤣
Same
Know this bloke who bought one for about $10000 and spent $5000 on repairs on the first year of ownership..
Rowny Báez my dream car 🐢
Hey Scotty. I went to a junkyard the other day. Was surprised to see a lot of different brands at a Chevy dealer.
I changed two head gaskets last year and it was pretty easy. Took all day, but I'm pretty new to this stuff.
“Thank Scotty for fixing your car without getting near it.” ❤️
is it just me or did i miss the whole crv part
Brake rotor balancing weights rust and fall off. Perfectly balanced wheels and tires yet still vibrating; went through this on my 91 Volvo 940SE turbo wagon.
On the 03 Silverado vibration, check the drive shaft carrier bearing and U joints. The rubber on the carrier deteriorates. I have a 2002 and this happened to mine.
Me: Scotty I want a car that has 4 wheels and an engine
Scotty: Definitely a money pit
Lol
OMG ...that Honda CRV is my exact car ...I hope my head gasket is OK ...bought it 2 months ago and it had 102K miles on it already
We have a 2009 CRV with 173,000 miles the we bought new. Runs like a champ, only real issue was the air conditioner.
I'm most states, used car sales are "as is" unless the seller provides inaccurate information. Knowledge of a problem is not actionable in most states.
About Mitsubishi, I own a 10 years old Outlander 2.4 engine with cvt not the Sport model in Canada, This is my 2nd Outlander, the previous one I had it for 6 years before my son wrote it off. I picked the 4 instead of the V6 because it's chain driven not belt. Here temperature range from -40C in winter to +35C in the summer. Regular maintenance, tires and wipers plus change differential oil once at 96,000 Km, now at 180,000 Km with all original parts, even the brake pads, they are wearing thin should replace them soon. Brother-in-law had a 14 years old Outlander V6 traded it in for a new car recently. The other car in the family is a 10 years old Toyota Venza 4 cylinder, had differential leaked repaired, all shocks and brakes replaced, also some odds and ends on top of regular maintenance. Same vintage, the Toyota cost me more than the Mitsubishi to maintain.
Yep, Scotty has no idea on Mitsubishi and I think he is basing his opinion on some of their older products. I own a 2012 Outlander with nearly 180,000km. Not a single issue with the car since new and it also has the original brake pads. Good economy, cheap to service and an all round excellent vehicle. As for CVT failures, my mechanic said you run a higher risk of them failing after 300,000ks but they are generally more reliable than most other cars.
I have a 2008 Honda Accord coupe v6 3.5L with 170,000 miles and still running smoothly
My friend Accord sedan 06 or 08. 200k miles

I got a 2013 crv the only problem I’ve had is the awd light is on. Might need new tires too.
I got same at the dealer . I just noticed is burning oil
I have had a crv (a 2014 & then a 2016) for the last 6 yrs & have no issues. I'm so sad now
Make sure the CR-V has fresh differential fluid.
low brake fluid could be a sign of thin brake pads. its a good idea to check the pads all around to see if they need replaced before adding too much fluid,
Scotty Should I buy a car or should I start riding a horse? I hear they can be an endless money pit and they crap all over the place
I wonder if there is any automobile manufacturer that doesn't make a weak automatic transmission. The woman I met in late 2001 who became my wife bought a 2000 Chevrolet Malibu from the Used Car lot at a local Oldsmobile dealership not long after we met. That car had 30,000 miles on it then. In mid-2007 I traded the Malibu in on a 2000 Chevrolet Silverado at a Used-up Car lot. (A Used Car lot is at a New Car dealership. A Used-up Car lot are the trade-ins the New Car dealership sent straight to the auction!). Between late 2001 and mid-2007 the Malibu accumulated 192,000 miles. The only issues I had were replacing the intake gaskets twice within 80,000 miles of each other, the master window switch set up for the driver's door and the light bulb socket assembly for the passenger rear tail-lamp. Now, my 2000 Silverado has almost 200,000 miles and I ain't in any hurry to get rid of it!
Than you for the free honest advice!!
Same in Cali, the car lot will do the best they can to give you another car off their lot or replace with another use engine to prevent from getting sued or losing their dealers license. Most lots will replace engine with another use engine instead for fixing head gasket
Doesn't anyone notice. In almost all videos of Scotty dissing some car models, it always involves something blowing up. The engine blows up. Transmission blows up. I'm not even sure if it's just a figure of speech. lol
My wife had an '84 Audi 5000S. Mechanically nothing ever went wrong. Electrically? Every switch had to be replace 4 or 5 times. We had 180K miles before trading it in.
-someone mentions Audi-
I think it’s one of the biggest money pits they ever made
I got a 2010 with 245k miles runs super good and strong still love it thinking about getting a 2015
I have a outlander from 2005 from Japan and its still running good
A 2016 honda cr v was your number 5 pick in Your video on the best used suvs to buy. Now it's a scam? I'm confused.....
scotty good day
is honda hrv a worth buy for my hard earned savings?? any advise?
At 0:22 Guy said people was Scammed by the same Car lot shows Chevy Dealer
At 1:01 Scotty if a Used Car lot Screws anyone over shows image of a Fiat Dealer
I own a 2005 Silverado. I didn't have bad tires on this truck, but have had bad tires on another and was so scared that my vehicle was going to fall apart! It was that bad! Found out it was the tires and when rectified, smooth sailing! So, yes, check tires first!
When the Audi A3 segment came on, I got the thought of how hilarious it would be to have Scotty infiltrate some Audi/VW engineering convention full of enthusiastic engine designers and him taking the podium and crushing their dreams with his blunt reality!! Priceless!! 🤣
German man/Werner von Braun absolutely cracked me up Scotty!
Scotty should just make his own cars. They’d be bullet proof!!!!
🙌🏽
Your '03 Silverado probably has a bad drive shaft. Had ours go bad out on an out-of-state trip & had to leave it there, rent a car home & back to pick it up! Crap Chevys.... ('02 Avalanche) the new improved driveshaft had a harmonic balancer on it. Expensive fix. Thank God it didn't go out on the interstate because it felt like we were driving in an earthquake as we limped it to the repair shop!
4:30 I have an 02, 256k miles still runs like new. It's a good car
I have a 2017 Honda CRV and it is a great car. Never a problem and Honda is tops in service.
Thing is, if you're a mechanic people only come to you when something's wrong. CR ranks Mitsubishi at almost last, so.... yeah. Might be something to his advance on that one.
Scotty my wife wants to get a new SUV. I suggested a Honda CRV because my sister has one 2007 model and never had a major issue, runs great and is over 200k miles now. Is the new CRV 2020 built the same way in terms of reliability?
I know im not Scotty, but I have a 2015 CRV and the 2015-2016 year models (made for 2 years) have a 2.4L 4 cylinder naturally aspirated engine making 185 horsepower, and the fuel economy is pretty solid. I’ve been modding mine though so economy on mine is probably different, but from the 2017 year model and on, so from 2017-2020 at the least, the CRVs at least here in the U.S. have a 1.5L 4 cylinder turbocharged engine making 190 horsepower, a difference of only 5 horsepower. The engine size of the 1.5L is a lot smaller than the 2.4L, and I just think that the 2.4 CRVs from 2015-2016 are the more solid and more self powering, maybe even the best crvs ever made but that’s debatable, but yeah I think just the sacrifice of 5 horsepower is worth it to have the bigger 2.4 engine. And I think there’s more headroom for more power with the 2.4. To me the 2015-2016s are the more solid and strong CR-V compared to the newer 1.5s. I believe the newest CRVs have an optional hybrid power train. Don’t know much about that but it’s interesting.
2015 wasn’t the first time the CR-V had a 2.4L engine. The 2014 model and before then to a certain point I guess, had 2.4s but for the 2015 model year, they took the 2.4s that were in the 2013-2017 Honda Accords and used those in the CR-Vs. That accord/CR-V 2015-2016 2.4L is called a K24W1, part of the K24 series, it has direct injection and increased torque compared to the 2.4 of the older CR-Vs. Also the 1.5 turbos are known to have oil issues, likely because it’s a tiny engine being pushed hard by a turbocharger to meet the power goal of 190hp, which the K24W1 2.4L of the 2015-2016s, without a turbocharger, makes only 5 less horsepower. And you could probably get the same as the 1.5L’s 190hp, if not more horsepower, from the 2.4L by just doing a few affordable and easy performance mods, which probably wouldn’t cost more than $300 or even $200 depending on what you do. I’m not a fan of the CVT transmissions, but for fuel economy, they’re built for that. And they’re really efficient in delivering optimal power at any given time. Extremely smooth acceleration and no shifts because it has no gear, instead two belt pulleys, which is different than an automatic transmission which does have noticeable gear shifting. It also vibrates like a son of a beach, but that’s just part of the 2015 experience.
Here in Florida, cars can be sold "as-is", with no warranty or responsibility for the dealers. If that guy bought the CR-V here in Florida, he'd be out of luck
I live in Florida too, the government is very hands-off.
@@tampabaybuccaneersfan7904 Very true....yet in some ways I like that. For instance, they got rid of all vehicle inspections, which is a plus
I learned how to drive a manual on an Audi GT from the '80s or '90s, can't remember. All 3 cars (same model) were owned by my neighbor. All 3 are still are running. That tells me that Audi is capable but lazy.
A smog station just damaged my transmission by putting it in park while it was still moving on the rollers.
They are denying that it ever happened, I'm about to sue them. wish me luck
Hmm. How old is your car? A once and while screw up doesn’t usually do damage...
@@brianfinn7644 It's a 96. Problem is guy was going almost full speed. Never hsd a problem before the
Guaranteed you will not get one penny in compensation. The burden of proof is on you, and “it was fine before I brought it there” is not proof.
@@mikek5298 A vehicle with a check engine light cannot pass a smog test. The seller, myself, and an other person I was with can confirm the condition of the car was good before the smog station. During the smog we all bore witness to him throwing my vehicle into park while it was still moving producing a large jolt through the car. 10 mins later the check engine light turned on for the transmission. It is impossible for my car to have had previous damage and pass the smog test.
Mike K Your word is your proof. It’s up to a judge to figure out who is telling the truth. Their insurance should cover this, make a claim or sue them.
I used to sell cars here in MS. If you signed as a "As is" statement, meaning that you're buying the car exactly as is, with no warranty, then honestly we are not responsible if you're car blows up 100 yards down the road.
We had a Outlander sport with a 5 speed manual. Great vehicle. Traded it up when it was near 100k and had zero issues. But ya wasn't a crap CVT that's for sure.
Solid car one problem in 153'000 , heater air conditioner fan sled, solid as a rock, had the gt with the 3 later v6.
"You drive her hard, she's gonna fall apart, especially when she's 19 years old"... Wait, what?
It seem the German cars in the USA have much more problems that here in Europe... I have bought Audi, VW and BMW over my life and generally only have little problems over their lifespan with me...
The only real issue I had was with a CVT transmission on a new Audi.. I sold it straight away and never bought another CVT vehicle...
Also there are plenty of ancient, scrappy Audi and BMW vehicles running around on the roads....
I wonder why they go so wrong so quickly in the States?
Hi Scotty I have a 2016 outlander which is the bigger one 3rd row and I love it so far got a good deal with only 4500 miles on it. If you replace CVT fluld every 30k like you are suppose too it will hold up. I do my own oil changes every 7k with Pennzoil and a great filter as well. But yeah I know it's not a Toyota 😂 but for the price I couldn't go wrong. Has 40k now never had a issue. I drive it 80 miles a day 5 days a week mostly hoghway.
Solid cars,,dont worry..i have one
I have one too and it's pretty good!
Was -12 overnight in Boise, Id. and I started my Subaru but when I slid the heater control over all the plastic behind the dash disintegrated! No way to turn heat on, Ugh. Tore the dash out and epoxied it all back together and sold it.
A Formula One motor race was held on 9 August 2020 at the Silverstone Circuit in Silverstone, United Kingdom. The Red Bull racing team finished first with a Honda-powered car. The folks at Mercedes, who have been dominating Formula One racing recently, were NOT happy.
I bought a 2015 Mitsubishi ASX that had done just over 60k kms in 2017. Worst mistake, but happy I got rid of it.
Im a very old school vw guy, 95 and older, excellent cars hands down, long range miles, and the diesels were amazing, went so long , it was worth rebuilding and going again...when interiors and engines lasted forever honestly, I've seen them start after sitting in fields for years.
same with old skodas. Janky cars, but man, could they take a beating. Those days are long gone though and current cars with same brands are totally different companies.
My daughters VW Cabrio was junk. The plastic disintegrated within a few years, the trim fell off, Top was shot 3 years. On and on. Yes those old VW's could take a beating and neglect, but that is a different era. Now she has a BMW and it has been a disaster too!
I Loved it when Scotty showed a picture of "Saul Goodman" Classic!
I know that on the GM 5.3 with cylinder deactivation, the deactivated cylinders end up filling with oil, "on demand" sound similar to deactivation. Probably doesn't help with wear.
scotty, most used cars in texas are sold "as is". this means no warranty. once you buy it, you own it for good or bad.
that last one, ford, should make some type of make-shift-shed to help protect that thing. i hate fords, but some love em.
For the Silverado that vibrates, check the U-Joints, if they’re worn out and have play it will cause a vibration past a certain speed. Changed one in the rear and one for the front diff. Shaking went away.
Or the opposite, binding u-joints, also from wear
Play in the steering is usually worn tie rod ends. Sometimes you'll hear a clunk when turning the steering wheel especially when your parking or driving in a parking lot.
Is it just my imagination or was this whole video basically the Endless Money Pits “Greatest Hits” album? 😂 “Scotty should I buy a...” NOPE!
Hi I have a 2004 Honda Pilot there is a noise coming from the front passenger wheel. Shaking the wheel does not have any play in any direction when jacked up. Going down hill in neutral the whiring sound stops only comes when in drive and acceleration.
Hey Scotty, how about doing a 300k daily driver roundup? My 2014 Honda CRV has over 300k and everything still works!
Does it have a CVT?
I hate having to keep comment this. On European cars, you have to maintain them. If you regularly follow maintence and PREVENTATIVE maintence plans, they run just fine. I can't tell you how many times I got a shocked look when I asked "When's the last time you got (insert thing here) checked?". Honda and Toyota don't necessarily make "better" cars, they simply use the computer to control the vehicle and over build for what that computer let's the driver do. In Europe, they engineer the vehicles to be preak or close to peak, and leave it to you, the owner, to take care of the thing. First thing to check when your brake light comes on ( especially if it's low on fluid) is for leaks and pad life. Your brake system is sealed. As the pads wear, the fluid drops to fill the gap your wheel cylinders or calipers need to extend. NEVER TOP OFF BRALE FLUID. It's super corrosive, and when you do need brake pads or shoes, all that fluid goes back into the reservoir, overflows, and eats away at paints and coatings on your vehicle. And if you're so ingorant to cars you somehow think a scan tool is going to tell you whats mechanically wrong with your vehicle, stop driving. Not to mention if that was a "mechanics" go to is to scan for codes on not going into a gear, they really should just stick to oil changes. On the VW, the head is warped. You can't just replace the gasket with out checking that nothing is warped.
Your instant inquiries of what’s wrong with all types of makes and models is impressive
Here's why this crv video just scammed you out of 10 min
What I bought a 2016 crv after you recommendation it has been awsome
jocelyn jones from what I understand, the 2014 and earlier CRV are great, as they have the bulletproof 2.4l and regular automatic (a weak point according to Scotty) but the 2015 and forward have the 1.5l GDI engine with oil dilution issues and the bloody CVT, avoid ANY car with a CVT!
MacTechG4 oh bugger
jocelyn jones; between the two issues, I think the more probable failure would be the transmission grenading, as push belt CVTs love to do, if you’ve had your CRV since new in ‘16, and the transmission is solid now, you most likely lucked out :)
Hold onto it until it fails, drive it into the ground, just put money aside for the potential transmission failure...
Let’s hope you won the luck lottery with your ‘16, good luck :)
(I’m in a similar situation as my ‘12 VW Golf TDI has the DSG dual clutch “automated manual”, if/when it grenades, I’m just going to go back to something with a manual transmission, maybe another Golf TDI/GTI or a Toyota Matrix XR-S, whatever it is, it’ll be a manual.
@@MacTechG4 does this apply to the hybrids? Because all the hybrids have the ecvt
Scotty! I enjoy your channel! Learned a lot! Persuaded my wife to buy a Toyota instead of the money pit Mercedes!!! Thank you!!! I am wondering what would you build for the perfect Scotty car??? James in Japan,, Thank you for your expertise and comedy!
Great video,,, sometimes you just make me smile and smirk!! I like that you tell it like it is!! Thanks you Scotty!! 👍
Hey Scotty, I'm being gifted a 1993 buick regal (not sure which engine) with 33K (yes) one 33k miles on it. It's in California and I live in Chicago. Should I drive it all the way back? What should I look out for?
I used to work for a bank, I had a customer bought a 2018 Mishibichi (I don't know how to spell it), within 3 weeks. Everything was falling apart, brake, coolant, AC, engine oil, etc.
I dont think scotty has ever said that any company has a good automatic transmission
I have an A4 1997 model with 1.8T engine Code AEB and it is a very relible and strong engine. The Turbo can go out but its typical wear.
Scottie, just bought the 2017 Honda accord 2.4l sedan that we had leased. What's your opinion on this car, any thing we should look out for?
The Brake Fluid Guy...that's why Scotty is great.
Scotty, I haven't bought a used car for over 50 years. I would blame the manufacturer if I bought it new and it broke. I have no one to blame but myself if a used car broke.
Scotty fixes your truck telepathically
Thoughts on a 2011 Accord with 112,000 miles and what an average price is and how long it might last??
Scotty I have a 1997 Honda Accord it has 216k and burns a quart a oil every week is it worth keeping it still runs fine sohc 2.2
Worth sinking real money into? No. Worth driving til it dies for real? Why not. Oil is cheap. Cars are not. I’d drive it the rest of the way into the ground myself if it’s already bought & paid for
Are you sure it's burning oil and not losing oil?
It is leaking oil from the pan gasket but it’s not bad where it leaves a puddle or drips
I lost my custom shades last night Scotty, and now I find out you are wearing them!!!
Every city needs a Scotty
Scotty got no chill disrespecting all car manufacturers lmaooooo
When Scotty talks about crappy cars, the picture of a Chevy Malibu pops up...This is my company car.
I agree with the positive comments and feedback. That said, your cat cushions are a hilarious understated plus. 🐾😁
In regards to the speed wobble replace the wheel bearings
Front right drive axle could be screwed up
Where does he talk about the Honda CR-V? I've watched the video through twice and can't find where he talks about it.
@@mcc7762 Thanks for the info!
The LX models had the 2.4 all the way up to 2019. But I just found out the 2020 even though it's a slight refresh they dropped the 2.4 and are putting the 1.5 across the board. and I just saw a motor week episode where the 0-60 time was only a .3 second difference. 7.5 for the 1.5 turbo and 7.8 for the 2.4.
lol yeah and the irony is the CR-V is mentioned!
My colleague owns a 2018 Outlander. He's got bad credit and they were the only dealership willing to finance him. Of course, they gave him a ridiculous interest rate. Now he's paying close to 600 dollars a month to drive a Mitsubishi. I don't want to be around when the thing starts crapping out on him. This is how Mitsubishi, Chrysler, and Nissan dealerships stay alive. They wait for some poor slob who's desperate to get into a vehicle and rake them over the coals. This is why people hate car dealers. Personally, I hope Tesla puts them all out of business.
I just bought a 1999 Honda CRV, manual trans with 100,000 miles (replaced motor) AWD... I love this car! It’s running rough though? It shifts well no other issues. I think it may just need spark plugs changed? It feels like something is shaking in the engine? Doesn’t have any leaks. It’s kinda loud in the cabin? I’m a female on a low budget. Any ideas what it could be? It starts right up w no hesitation. It doesn’t shake on the highway it just does it mostly when it is idling?
Scotty, how is a price of 4,200 for a 2007 Toyota Corolla on a car lot? Paint a little chipped on the front and bottom lights aren’t working ( I assume fog lights) otherwise seems in pretty good shape and drives good. ??? I’m 62 and have been watching your videos. Would appreciate your opinion. 🙂 price WAS 4,900. Said
that 4,200 was the least they would take.
I respectfully disagree. I love the CR-V
You're not disagreeing at all....
Those B5 Audi/VW 1.8 engines are know for oil sludge problems stay away from them you may sneak in a few good miles but it’s a ticking bomb 💣
The other way to answer the question about the Canadian card at -15C is that no, wind chill does nothing to make a car colder than if there was no wind, if it has sat out long enough to already get down to -15C. If it wouldn't have gotten that cold yet, wind chill will accelerate the rate at which it cools down to -15C. Wind chill will also increase the amount of time it takes your defroster or defogger to become effective and how long it takes the engine to warm up unless you are driving the same direction as the wind.
Having written that much, if it's not a terrible inconvenience then I would hook the heater up at -15C, but it doesn't get that cold here, does get as cold as -9C and I've never had any plastic cracking issues at that temp, though I don't have vinyl seats and am pretty gentle on a vehicle, letting the defroster get some heat into it before trying to operate it.
I'm thinking of buying an Audi with a thirty speed DCT that was in a wreck while in a flood after it caught fire and had the engine rebuilt.
My wife's 2006 crv ex awd.has 336xxx miles on it.and still strong..well i do all the maintenance to all my cars,maybe thats why still strong 😊😊😊😊
Have a buddy with a 2001 Audi S4. Still going and he drives it hard!
Scotty you’re great at what you do!!
Always hire a Scotty to check you used cars because Scooty is telling others to get rid of it fast before it dies completely.
