[QUOTE="Vincent Hor, post: 417480, member: 1221"] Bro, 180,000kms on a 97 car is not considered a high mileage. It works out to be less than 15,000 kms per year. What I found out is most of the M50/M52 engines oil cap & view of the inside of the oil cap always shows minute strains of oil sludge. This is quite common. How does the car drives? Get a compression test done? Anyway these M52B28 engines are cheap in the potong shop. A nice low mileage engine kosong from Japan would probably cost less than RM4K PS hose can be a bit expensive. The one with the pressure can cost around RM1.5K to replace. Missing pixels can be repaired as some like Herbert has done it. Power window regulator set is expensive if you buy them new (RM1.5K) Second hand can be found at around RM450 - RM500 If you really like the car, then have it sent to a reliable mechanic to check the car throughly.
