The car could have been an all city driving car, or driven twice a day on a very short commute (i.e. always cold started and never got warmed up properly). And check the service records to make sure that maintenance was done by the time schedule (where it says "every 15,000 miles or one year" a 3400 miles per year car needs it done every year). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Timothy J.
