Today I found a white 1995 SDV with a blue cloth top, gold package, hand pinstripes, very nice car, for $8k. The car has 67k on it, in great shape, CD player, blue leather interior, 4.9 V8, the works. Here's what I got when I ran diagnostics on it.
DTC's:
P052 History
I032 History
I039 Current
T072 History
The first time I started it the Service Vehicle Soon light was on but the second time it went out. The display also said "SERVICE RIDE CONTROL." The car runs and drives just fine without any problems. Can someone tell me what those codes mean and if this is a good car? Depending on the severity of these/this problem(s) I will request a price drop accordingly. Thanks.
Service Ride Control-the electronic struts went on it.
its expensive to replace the struts with OEM electronic struts, but if you go for the passive struts like I have, its $80 a strut, and they do fit. Thats what Rick did on his '93.
$8000...seems damn steep through these eyes. you should buy my 94 deville with 92,000 miles for a third of the price. It Looks beautiful and runs great. Best of all, it'll save ya around $4-5000.
$8k? Gosh, that is quie a chunk.... I'd offer $5k.
Service Ride Control, yup, struts went... tho it may ride and drive fine, because they still work, but the electronic part that changes the dampening rates went bad.

rule of thumb is to check the private party blue book value, and the dealer resale value, both checked off in "good" condition (if the car appaears average for the year) and make an offer that falls in betweenthose 2 figures, if form a dealer.
Yeah, he's nuts for wanting $8k! My gorgeous '94 Deville with 94k miles was $3,500. I know this car has less miles, but not enough to double the price!
theres a data issue somewherethats hurting the ABS , (your to72) its also whinging at the ipc level about the abs issue too , (io32) , io39 is a data issue with the road sensing suspension , dont worry about this one , i now know all the workarounds so we can get rid of that one , io52 just indicates the battery was pulled at somepoint ....
im very concerned about the ABS data codes , i would have to look at the car and figure out what we had , it could be the controller or just a wire that got pinched somewhere between the trunk electronics rack and the ipc , or from the abs black under the hood to the ipc or to ....see i could go on all day

Well, the ABS code is history. Doesn't that mean it was a problem at some point but is no longer? Thanks for decoding those by the way. The road sensing suspension I don't give a shit about, as long as the suspension does its regular job, I'm happy.
Yep, I039 was the only current one and I believe that was the ride control which was also the message the speedo displayed for me to see. The bullshit dealer told me that message meant it was the air shocks but they were fixed and he couldn't make the message go away. I even suggested it being the road sensing suspension and he's like, "Naah that's not it!"
:thepan: Dyurrrrrr....
