hi guys, this is nahc from south east china.
i am new here and also a new owner of is200, bought it off my dad haha.
i dont think my dad has done anything to the car over the past 10 years other than oil change. im planning to take it for a check up.
for this 10 year old car, is there anything i should check or pay attention to? like the post about the "timing belt" issue is really useful, thanks a lot guys!!!
few more questions
*i think everything remains orginal in this car. its a little bit noisey when accelrating what do you guys think the problem is?
*there are 3 little meters on the meter panel, one is water temperature, one is the battery, what is the bottom one? when driving it goes down to 0 i think, but wehn stop at traffic light, it goes up to 30... is it normal?
*is200 has about 160 horses, pls correct me if im wrong, but i still feel it kinda lacks power, is there anything i can do to it to gain an extra 20 or 30 horses? i dont exactly have enough paper to do a engine change or turbo tho...hehe, pls guys, put in your advices.
thank you~~!!!
