[QUOTE="vanclanmike, post: 455265, member: 24555"] the rest of the story.... I always shudder when I sign a form that says "AS IS". Oh come on it's a used car, they wouldn't lie. I only got to drive it for a few miles, took it on the highway up to 80mph, no wobble, one of the cleanest drives of the ones I tested. So let's give it a run, up the mountain I go. thought I smelled a little coolant but gauge was steady. On the way back I thought i heard a scraping in the brakes, must be some cinder in there from the roads.....oh hum what could it be?...so now the real truth. The right front caliper was defective causing the pad to stick and had ruined the rotor. The ECT (engine coolant temp) sensor was defective and the ECM had no clue what the temp was. This is where most would have buyers remorse I guess. But I am a jeeper for life....here we go again [ATTACH=full]123589[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]123592[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
