Hi there!
![]() 1. Is it a good deal? 2. If I do get this car, would swapping out the motor be easier/cheaper than rebuilding it? 3. Any things I should make sure to check when I go look at the car tomorrow? Thanks! |

Yeah, the 5s is an absolute beast. I replaced the oil pump gasket and a few other things one day, then headed out on a 3 hour trip the next day. Something let loose and I kept leaking oil out the a$$. Went through 4 quarts of oil 3/4's of the way into the trip, was in the mountains and need to add more since my valves started ticking. Got pissed off at that point and did not pay attention to the levels and filled it till oil was coming out of the dipstick.
