Hi, I am looking into buying an sc300 or 400. I know all cars have common problems with them. I was wondering what to look for when I go to look at cars. What are some common problems that i can check? I have done a little research and i learned the motor mounts are a common problem? How can I check to see if those are ok when i check out a car?

Put the car in drive and push on the gas and brake at the same time, and see how far the motor moves.

List of common problems..

window regulators
control arm bushings
motor mounts
leaky headlights
power steering leaks, which takes out the alternator
cluster needles
climate control bleeds or turns black
fuel ecu

Thats all that I can think of off the top of my head. Good luck and try searching on here for your answers..

That just about covers it. Make sure to check for cracks in the taillights, tears in the door panels, and that all of the electronics in the car work.
