Hello again. Still asking about 7M's in general. My friend is kind of panicky about buying a car, because he thinks that 155000km is a lot for an engine.
The engine is a 7MGTE, its got a metal head gasket, ARP head studs, all the seals in the head have been replaced, the turbo has been rebuilt, and as long as the current owner has had it, its seen oil changes every 5000km, plug changes every 10000km and has always used Toyota "red" coolant.
I know hes just being cautious, and everything he knows is based on his fathers experience with engines in Commodores, but we all know they aren't quite built to the same standard.
Is it really something to worry about? Looking for honest opinions here.
Thanks,
Nathan
