Hi guys,
I want to make checklist for buying a used Proton.
What's do you guys recommend one should check/keep in mind when buying a used Proton/Used Car.
Here are few points from me which may or may not be correct so please correct if I am wrong.
1: Prefer to buy used car from owners instead of dealers.
2: Check engine blow back. If there is some then engine is weak.
3: Check exhaust fume color. If light blueish then engine burns engine oil.
4: Check engine bay for any leakages.
5: During test run if squeeky noise comes after applying breaks then break pads need changing and/or break system needs service.
6: Open the engine cap and see the engine looks clean. If there are carbon deposits (black colored stuff sticking here and there) then that engines has not been maintained well.
What are your points? Or corrections for my list?
