I am considering a 2001 Sebring Sedan with a 2.7L engine. It has
112,000 miles on it. The dealer says that it runs good, but does not know how well maintained it was.If I was to purchase it and perform regular oil changes, would that gradually clean out any existing sludge that may have accumulated, hopefully avoiding any problems, or could I still be in for problems down the road?
Is a well maintained 2.7 reliable, or should it be avoided altogether?
I know that there are some posters on this NG that have been satisfied with their 2.7's, but have been careful to change the oil on a regular basis, and even use synthetic oil.
Thanks,
