Thanks, Gilly ...

Have one in mind, but a bit concerned in that looks like owner followed the oil change warning system interval and this one preceded the shift to Mobil 1 ... engine compartment had never seen a bit of cleaning, either ... passenger side head had oil all over it, but likely just a cover gasket, I think ...

I did see in some of the records there had been some trans work, but the dealership invoice showed very little I could understand - orings, seals, gaskets, and "Under Warranty" or "N/C" under labor so couldn't tell ... owner pretty clueless - wife simply drove in when warning light for maintenance came on ... anything common re trans leaks, etc?

Thanks for your continuing support to this community of interest!
