At Jay Wolfe of Blue Springs you can always be assured a wide selection of quality used vehicles, as everything on our lot goes through a rigorous 160-point inspection by our well-trained service technicians before being detailed and presented to our customers. When shopping pre-owned though, especially from individual sellers, it pays to be as informed a buyer as possible so as to detect any potential unpleasant surprises before money changes hands. With that in mind we’ve comprised a simple checklist to help you with some of the basic, yet most important, things to look for as you navigate the used car jungle.

The Engine:
We start with the engine as it’s the heart and soul of the car, and should there be issue, this is also where you could end up spending the most money in repairs.

- Proper oil changes with quality oil are integral to a vehicle’s longevity, so be sure to ask the seller for records when possible.
- Most late model cars have moved to belt-driven engines as opposed to chain-driven, so do your research to find what your prospective car utilizes, then find out if and when it’s been changed. Most cars recommend the belt be changed every 60,000 to 80,000 miles, and though the procedure isn’t cheap, it’s much less expensive than the repairs involved should the belt break.
- Look at the engine to see if it’s covered in black, sticky dirt – if so, it may have a serious oil leak.
- Bluish or black smoke from the exhaust indicates the engine’s burning oil, likely a result of worn piston rings.
- White smoke is coolant, usually the result of a blown head gasket.
- Ticking from the top of the engine could simply require adjustment of valve clearances, while knocking from deep inside the engine could be a warning of serious internal damage.

The Drive Train
Barring any clunking and grinding sounds from u-joints, or CV joints, or, of course, noticeable slipping of the transmission, this is another area where you should at least ask for preventative maintenance service records. For automatic transmissions it would be good to see fluid and filter changes at least once a year, and for manual the oil changed every two.

The Brake System
Solid horsepower and delivery are great, but sketchy brakes can be downright dangerous. Again, ask the seller for any records of brake maintenance.

- Look for abnormal wear on the surface of disc and drum brakes, such as jagged or deep grooves.
- See if the pads or shoes are worn evenly or not.
- Check for leaks in the hydraulic lines.

The higher the mileage on your prospective purchase, the more you’ll want to ask maintenance questions in regards to carburetor tune ups or replacements, fuel pump and filter replacement; has the antifreeze been changed and flushed at least every couple years? The more documentation the seller can deliver the better for your peace of mind.

And should you find that car of your dreams from an individual seller and want a more thorough inspection before making the deal, feel free to bring it in to our service facility where our professional team of technicians can delve a bit deeper to flush out any hidden gremlins.

No matter what, it’s important to set your needs before setting off on this venture and keep them in the front of your mind throughout. It’s all too easy to fall in love with a gorgeous car while neglecting to check out what’s behind that pretty exterior. If you set your own restrictions ahead of time and stick to them you’ll be much happier in the long run.

Happy hunting!
