Well maintained car with 218,000 but need new head gaskets. Runs well but will blow out coolant from time to time. Happened twice now 1st time shop said it was thermostat. So we had that changed and engine bay cleaned 5 days later Whoosh. . .it happened again shop says its head gaskets a known problem with the 2.5lt engine. Some rust on "A" pillar (around windshield) and few other small spots but no leaks few dings etc. Rust was ground down to metal and painted with single stage auto paint and a brush, visible repair but not ugly by far. rad was replaced in 08 @ 173k. Clutch, timing belt, Timing belt tensioner, water pump were all replaced Jan of 09. Gas tank filler pipe replaced 9/10. Has A/c but bad overunning clutch bearing so belt was cut off. We are non smokers and so is the car. We have No kids so rear seat has seen only grocery bags! we have owned this car 11 years
Easy fix for the handyman.
