    I sold my 2010 Audi A5 Convertible with 265k miles, and the car is still going strong from what the new owner said. German cars require more maintenance (belts, chains, tensioners, 3-5k mile oil changes, new suspension bushings) but if you can turn a wrench and download a service manual, or watch a you tube video and DIY the repairs, you can save $$$$ over a dealership, or euro independent mechanic.

    I don't really have to worry about repairing or maintaining a Mercedes, Audi, or BMW because I know I'll never own one. For me I have a simple rule - if it says "Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep" (WK Grand Cherokee onward), or "Fiat 500" I will just keep walking. I guess you could throw in anything with the GM 3.6 in that too. I've got experience with Chrysler stuff and I've learned my lesson.

    We now have 2 convertibles. I liked driving my wife's so much, I bought myself one. LOL
    I fix everything myself. So I save a lot of money. All though, I need to figure out how to fix my wife's convertible top so it opens. The Autel scan tool gives me 3 codes, but when I manually operate it, all the switches it says are a problem, each one shows when it's opened and closed. IDK
    I have to figure that one out.
    Those transmission problems may just be from people not changing the filter and fluid at the proper intervals?
    That one is older than mine. I have the 2008. It has a larger display.
    I like how it tells you exactly which light bulb is out.
    Thousands on the suspension? I only spent about $600 on all new control arms, shocks/struts, motor mounts, tranny filter and fluid. And I do my own work.

      @jp1087 6 месяцев назад +1

      @@kennywhiddon1497 There is a good market for salvaged cars. Many times cars get salvaged just due to the cost of repair labor when they are perfectly fine and roadworthy. Cosmetic damage or bumper cover replacements are a big one. If someone keys your $5k Altima with a bunch of cuss words, and you submit a claim, it would be salvaged. The cost of a repaint is going to be more than the car is worth. You take the $5k payout because insurance is required to pay market value. Market value being what people are currently buying and selling them for, not what KBB says. There is a big difference. You buy it back from insurance for $1500, pay "a guy you know" $2k to put a stage 1 paint job on it, or put a wrap on it, and you have a car you can sell for $4k. You just made money.
