2.7 Engine

Written by: bernsax on Feb 18, 2008 05:06 PM

I didn't really do the research on this engine before I bought it and now all I hear what a bad engine it is from car experts.

Maintenance Schedule: Change the alternator and drive belt at 60,000 miles

Written by: automotivebuff on Nov 23, 2006 09:26 PM
