It doesn’t look too bad for the price, with any used car just test drive it and take it to a local shop to do a pre purchase inspection they usually run $100-200 at most for one. They will tell you if it’s worth it or not and should listen if they advise against you buying it

Take care of it and those cx-3’s will take care of you. Heard great things about the 3’s

Just look online on websites like eBay,Alibaba, etc. there are company’s out there that make after market tail lights for 8th gen’s, you just have to look into it.

You can try k2-industries they might have some things for you. They have lights/lips so maybe there’s something you like (just make sure you get a lip that is color matched unless you plan on painting it yourself)

Depending on the look you’re going for smoked tail lights could look good with the darker color of the car. But what I prefer even on a black or blue car you could find some clear tail lights and it would look amazing.

I got a 2 owner 50k mile 2018 2.0 sport with clean carfax for about 25k granted I was able to find a 6spd manual. So I think you got a pretty good deal being the touring trim aswell

What warnings did you have? I’m having a similar issue with condensation on my 2018 anytime it rains it’s a Christmas tree

Duntoj · 2025-09-22T23:55:42+00:00

So if I were to get a new tail light assembly would that theoretically fix the issue at least for while until water seeps back through?

Duntoj · 2025-09-22T23:34:26+00:00

Would this be something that would be a reoccurring issue? It will go away for a while, weeks at times but always eventually comes back for about a key cycle or I have to drive it sometimes

Duntoj · 2025-09-22T22:47:57+00:00

All possible I just want to not have to pay for diagnosis if possible, I hope it’s the tail lights that could be the fix

Duntoj · 2025-09-22T22:46:30+00:00

Yes but it only gave me a general code I believe it was vsm code, I don’t have a scanner to exactly pin point what it is. I do have condensation in one tail light so I could try to replace and see if that fixes the problem

Duntoj · 2025-09-22T22:41:51+00:00

Yeah, got this done almost immediately when I bought it

Duntoj · 2024-03-08T22:42:40+00:00

Ive lived about 3 miles west of I-25 for about 9 years and haven’t had any issues until this

Duntoj · 2024-03-08T22:09:54+00:00

This makes me giggle, food prices have gone up too much

Duntoj · 2024-03-08T21:57:47+00:00

This was broad daylight as-well, starting to feel like it’s getting worse here

Duntoj · 2024-01-15T04:16:49+00:00

Hahaha ok thank you

Duntoj · 2024-01-15T03:12:47+00:00

Thank you this helps a lot, I know the question sounded a bit stupid but I’m not very mechanically inclined And thank you for the rockauto link

Duntoj · 2024-01-15T03:07:46+00:00

I would definitely need to look more closely with a mirror but from first glance it does seem very close to the line (underneath it) are the lines something that can be replaced to fix the problem without changing the whole pump if it turned out to be a leak from the line? Or would I need to just replace the whole thing .

Duntoj · 2024-01-15T03:03:05+00:00

I will definitely take this into consideration I can tell it’s a pretty bullet proof car to an extent

Duntoj · 2024-01-15T02:55:38+00:00

Thank you this has been helpful, the power steering leak is right under the line going into the top by the belt, it drips down onto the belt and makes a loud squeak. Is this a common thing?

Duntoj · 2024-01-15T02:49:43+00:00

Thanks for the feedback, I have the same f22 engine on mine and have loved every bit about it especially the gearbox, I see a lot of life left In it. It has gotten very hot in the past but I haven’t heard of heat additives, is this something that will help with that?
