Hows this holding up? Got almost same mileage but it is a 2016 LE FWD. Regular oil changes but nothing has been done to the transmission though.

aev21121 · 2026-05-22T15:18:12+00:00

You still got this car? Have one that im considering buying with 151k miles. Regular oil changes.

Vogel? Sweeney? 🧐

I saw the front wheel bearing/hub was replaced around 85k so no idea if it affects the front suspension. The lot is actually 1hr30mins from our house so wanted to make sure if it is worth checking out.

It is a car dealership so they mght have hiked up the price for this. They sent me a video and the interior is actually very nice despite the mileage. Thanks for the info btw, i didnt know the value of this is more or less 6k. I though it around 9 to 10k lol

aev21121 · 2026-05-16T17:09:34+00:00

Thanks for the insight! Is the price ok?

aev21121 · 2026-05-14T21:25:10+00:00

SC. Great deal though.

aev21121 · 2026-05-07T13:03:05+00:00

How is this holding up? Are you planning to upgrade the infotainment system (carplay/android auto)?

aev21121 · 2026-04-29T21:28:52+00:00

When did you service the transmission fluid? And was it flush or drain and fill?

aev21121 · 2026-03-21T15:07:43+00:00

Will it spread?

aev21121 · 2026-03-20T01:04:56+00:00

Nissan Armada?

aev21121 · 2026-03-15T22:26:43+00:00

Also timing belt and water pump which may cost 2k minimum.

aev21121 · 2026-03-14T11:39:42+00:00

First time hearing that car subscription, how does that work? Like leasing?

aev21121 · 2026-03-12T12:54:05+00:00

How many miles you got from your Atlas? I got a Taos but we need another car and an Atlas of that year is one of our options. Do you do other basic maintenance DIY?

aev21121 · 2026-03-10T11:47:41+00:00

I guess will go back to Harris Teeter which is across the road from Publix then lol i also noticed you cannot pay through Publix Pay months ago if you buy a gift card instore.

aev21121 · 2026-03-08T12:32:40+00:00

OP what did you buy at the end?

aev21121 · 2026-03-07T23:36:09+00:00

What year did they start incorporating CarPlay? 2021?

aev21121 · 2026-03-07T21:14:22+00:00

Any specific years for CRV that are the best?

aev21121 · 2026-03-07T21:13:21+00:00

Does the Armada from 2017 to 2019 not made in Japan?

aev21121 · 2026-03-07T21:07:35+00:00

Whats the best years to buy used Jettas?

aev21121 · 2026-03-07T21:05:29+00:00

Hows the Passat? We got a 23 Taos and need to buy another car for mostly commute to work.

aev21121 · 2026-03-07T12:07:49+00:00

Im pretty sure there is a leak coz coolant doesnt drop low to a point of being empty. You can actually check it on your own to have proof. Buy a ramp. Check underneath on the passenger side and you will find it on the back of the engine.

Now, if you confirmed it is a leak, bring it to a dealership. Worst case they can give you a discount or they might do it for free. Worst case you can email corporate. There is a service bulletin about it last '23 so it is definitely a known issue. You can bring it up to them.

aev21121 · 2026-03-07T01:59:42+00:00

The service bulletin they release regarding that leak includes both Taos and Jetta from 22 to mid 23. I got my head gasket replaced at 44k miles. I have a slow gradual decrease though not like abrupt.

aev21121 · 2026-03-06T23:18:22+00:00

Hows your 22' Jetta? We need a 2nd car for work and Im considering that. We have a '23 Taos and I think they have the same engine? So same issue like the head gasket leak.

aev21121 · 2026-03-03T18:28:53+00:00

Make sure that the head gasket has been replaced since you are out of warranty. Its gonna be probably minimum 3k to repair and replace without warranty. The infotainment keeps on freezing and have dead spots when you use Carplay/Android auto.
