Hello. Been reading your board this week as my wife and I are considering buying a 2001 9-5 with 147,000 miles. It's in good shape, black on black, 2.3 turbo, auto tranny (wish it were 5 spd). I think I can get it under $3000. Looks as though there has been top end engine work done, maybe turbo work, too. Dealer thought the rack may be bad due to popping noise, but it had the wrong power steering fluid in it, it was flushed and changed and all problems have disappeared. Car is tight, shifting is excellent and not much turbo lag. Previous owner put new Yoko Avis all around about five months ago. What do you guys think? Any other things I should check before purchase?
I appreciate any help and advice. Thanks!
Rob
