Used 2017 maintaince

Maintenance and Repairs

About 50k miles for sale that I’m on the fence about buying.

My concerns are I can’t verify the Haldex has been serviced at all or the frequency of oil changes based on the CARFAX.

O2 sensor, sway bar link, and serpentine belt replaced.

Price works for me. My biggest concern is the maintenance (or potential lack there of). I will replace the spark plugs if I buy it.

What do you all think?

Worst case?

How do older R’s hold up?
