2013 E350 Convert.
I am thinking of purchasing an E350. However, I thought I'd check with this forum to see if any surprises await me, or things to inspect I look at it Friday. I welcome any pearls of advice, even if they are full of Jaffe's.
Thank you for any hot tips.
Regards
Fred

pre-inspection
These are nice predictable vehicles: the maintenance they have not have is the one they'll need.
-- Inquire about previous maintenance records
-- What sort of mileage are you considering: less than 100kMi or beyond?
-- Cylinder scoring with non-contributing compression.
-- New VVT gears and failed camshafts can add up x4
-- A OBD Scan will reveal faulty module activities.
Are you good with wrenching? Would you consider changing your fuel pumps?

Thank you CaliBenzDriver..I currently have a 2012 Caddy Coupe CTS-4. I really like it, but I want something a little more sporty. I used to have a 2013 Ford Convert. Coyote 5.0 w/ a 6-speed fun very fast car, but in town, I hated all the shifting. Thank you for your Reply and advice.
