Okay my old car (2000 Sunfire) needs brakes, rotors and wheel barings. It needs a new coolant resevoir, bc it leaks and there is also an oil leak into the 3rd cylinder (I don’t really know what that means, mechanic tells me this). I am planning on selling the car as is, but I am disclosing all this info and hoping to figure out how much these repairs would cost a) from a mechanic and B) just parts to do it yourself. Just trying to set a fair price for selling it as is! Thanks, where I live this car in good working condition goes for about $2000-2500.
Well i listed the car for 900, it isn’t it fabulous shape…. the one front tire has a slow leak and the hubcaps aren’t lookin to good either. I know its not easy work.. I was hoping someone who fixes cars would buy it and maybe re-sell it. The mechanic who looked at it didn’t seem to think the oil leak was an expensive problem.. but again, I don’t know much about cars. The body is in decent shape. No dents or anything, a tiny bit of rust and a scratch here and there but nothing significant. I am getting flooded with responses for 900 dollars, but I think once everything is on the table I will be lucky to get the 900, i just dont want to be greedy!
Btw its a 2.4 litre engine, with 170,000km (sorry not sure what that is in miles off hand) and its automatic/2 door.
