As rubber seals age, "slight oil seepage (oil stains but no dripping)" is very common in used cars and is not considered a major fault. Our recommendation is: as long as the oil level does not drop abnormally, just clean and monitor it regularly after arrival, without the need to immediately incur high costs to disassemble and replace the seals.
The method to deceive the dashboard warning light is to install a resistor. Our technicians will deeply read the real-time resistance values from the airbag control module (SRS Module) data stream and check for any non-factory stitching or adhesive marks on the steering wheel/passenger panel to uncover the disguise.
The lifespan of rubber sealing strips for frameless doors is usually only 4-5 years. We carefully press the sealing strip at the edge of the roof to check for loss of elasticity and use a high-pressure water gun to wash the seams of the windows to check for direct water leakage due to aging.
