Tip #2: Do a visual inspection.
Another big area is the engine. First and foremost, look for oil leaks. If you look closely enough, you can usually identify an oil leak and where it came from. When an engine is dirty and dusty, you’ll often see the oil in the dust. And if the machine sits over a pool of oil, you know you’ve got some issues. We also need to look and see if the engine has been deleted of emission components and software. As a dealer, we need to sell a used piece in whole condition.
