Hi Guys,
I have my eye on a 4.8 petrol/gas Auto with 150,000 klms on it. Any thoughts on what I should check/look for. I am hoping to test drive on Friday.

Cheers

Hey Barry. Having not owned a 4.8 i dont exactly know what to look for apart from the obvious things. Chech the soomthness of the trany and gear changes. Fuel economy was never great on these things but dual fuel is a plus. They are a great car and engine. If the test drive goes well... go for it.

I like to check tran oils pull the dipstick smell for burnt oil check motor oil water all your normal start up proccedures
crawl under and look for gouges dents in sub tank and check for mud around seals and bushes

hope this helps good luck with your find
