What they changed, except for the hydraulic clutch between those two years ? Is it true that the 1996 is a banned year and nobody should buy a 96 2.3L model? I was told to buy a 97 or later, because they made changes on the engine, I can't believe it.
I had the balancing shaft problem, got it fixed for 500$ (CAN) which is quite cheap but still, I'm so impressed that such a nightmare happend on a "long life reputated car"... Is the 2.3 still in the 9 5 model has this problem of hyper sensibility to oil changes?
My basic question is, even if it seems in perfect shape and nothing so far lookes weaked, should i change my 1996 900 S 3 door 5sp. 98k Miles for getting away of eventual major repairs???
I read so many stories about bursted engines at this milage...
thanks !
