    What should I look out for

    Hi all. I'm new here. I'm going to be purchasing a 2002 ES GT next week. I was wondering what are the known issues with the car that aren't common knowledge.
    I know it's a great car (it's why I'm buying it) but like everything else, I want to know what to tell my mechanic to pay close attention to when he's doing the pre-purchase inspection (it's my mechanic, not the dealer's).

    I've read through a bit of the forums and saw stuff on clutch chatter.

    Thanks.


    fyi, located in GTA, canada.


    ps. what's with two identical looking protege forums?

    I think the clutch chatter is really the only common problem on the 2.0 liter's.

    I'd just have him check the usual stuff.

    As for the identical forums, that's a long long story. But this forum has a new and different skin. I guess you're using the old one?

      Thanks. I checked out all the recalls for the car and strangely enough, that wasn't even mentioned. weird.

          There wasn't a full recall on the clutch chatter problem. But in most cases, if you take it to the dealership and complain that you're having the problem, they'll fix it for free.
