Vehicle in good condition, passed inspection; vehicle in fair condition, 1 claim filed, 1 ownership transfer.
This vehicle is 5 years old, with an average annual mileage of 17,700 kilometers, and is used with normal family daily frequency. It has been transferred once. The exterior paint is in good condition, but there may be a few minor marks. The interior is in good condition, with normal signs of use on the surface. The overall body frame is intact and without any abnormalities. The fluids are normal, and the power system is operating well.
To prevent intermittent failures due to aging of the resistance wire, we will start the engine and set the seat heating/ventilation to maximum for at least 5 minutes, confirming significant temperature changes or airflow output in the cushion and backrest using an infrared thermometer or body sensor.
We thoroughly rule them out by checking if the cabin wiring harness is melted, if the seat belts have water stains or mold, if there is unusual rust or debris in the seat tracks and cigarette lighter, and by verifying with the insurance company for any "total loss claims." These two types of cars are an absolute sales ban for us.
We use two steps: 1. Insert a medical-grade endoscope through the spark plug hole to visually inspect cylinder wall scratches and carbon buildup on the piston top; 2. Extract an engine oil sample to check for large metal debris or emulsification (caused by coolant leakage).
