I am interested in 2002/3 SE 6-speed. I found this one locally its in great condition from what I see and after test drive. They want $14,976 (final price) it has 47,379 mile is it worth that price and how do I tell if it has HLSD?
Thanks for the advice

That's a fair deal, not spectacular though. I'd take the deal if it was $14K out the door.

 

I just paid 14,7 for mine with 45,000 miles. 02 SE, 6 speed. I think its a decent deal but not a fantastic deal.

 

Why does the ad say 13,988?

If its a florida car you better check, double check and triple check for flood damage. A buddy of mine lives there and he refuses to buy a car from FL. He said its amazing the extent people go to in order to cover up damage. Assuming the car hasn't been wrecked is in good shape and is 13,988 I'd be ALL over it.

 

they said its 13988+ with 988Dn. dont make sense thanks for your advice

 

How do i tell if a car has HLSD??? heck what does the dang thing do?

 

LSD = Limited Slip Differential, makes both front tires spin equally instead of just one.

I would like to know how to tell if it has it as well because I just bought my 02 and I dunno.

BTW that one in the add has cloth interior. Mine was fully loaded except nav and I paid 14,7. So 14,9 seems a bit high given the options.

 

I think i have to be patient even though i am itching to buy. My pedals are
Aluminum i think i read somewhere on the org that hlsd car have the alumimum
pedals.

 

If thats the case I dont have LSD, I think my pedals are black.

 

I have an 02 SE and it has LSD and I have black pedals. I am not sure how to check visually for the LSD. I suggest launching the car aggressively so that you spin the tires. If you have a lot of torque steer it does not have LSD. You should be able to feel the LSD spinning both tires.

 

1. There are many threads on here about "Looking into buying an 02-03, what do I need to know?". Please read around a bit.

2. There are also many threads about how to tell if your car has HLSD. Pop the hood and look at the transaxle code on the firewall. If it ends in "H" the car has HLSD and if it ends in "A" it does not.

 

Not if the previous owner replaced the pedals with aluminium ones. Check the transaxle code.

 

Not really. HLSD transfers power to the wheel with most traction, so in some conditions one will be spinning more than the other.

What does your transaxle code say?

Ok makes sense. I just need to find time to get on.

 

I just need to find some time to come down there, my car is a disaster.

 

Uh oh, that doesn't sound good.

Make sure that if you buy an 02 it dyno's over 204 ft-lbs

 

Ok, retarded question, can an automatic have HLSD?

 

Nevermind, I found the answer

 

H = Hellical? (sp)

Limited Slip on my TA simply presses the clutch together in the diff if more than 70ft/lbs is applied and spins both tires equally, are you sure it will send to whichever tire has the most traction?

 

On these cars, yes, I'm sure.

I paid 14,000even for my 2k2 6spd w/hlsd in feb and it had 58000miles, got it in florida, say that price is fair deal for the car

 

Cool I figured it worked like the diff in my TA, I was wrong

 

Go ***** your other forum...

 

Too bad that's still more than yours... even with the bad MAF, coils, exhaust leaks, etc etc...

 

i paid $14K even for my 02 6SPD/HLSD w/ 43,000 in january fully loaded with everything but navi....

so if its not fully loaded, dont let them bend u over...

 

im jelous

 

Hey folks, keep an eye out for me i am willing to drive 500 miles from florida
to pick up a 2002/3 6-speed with less than 60k my max price is 14k. Thanks for the advice

2002 6-speed 28187 miles cloth, hlsd, cd changer
Check it out guys they would let it go for 15K, is it worth my time the description is wrong the car is a 6-speed not auto

 

I LOVE that color. I think you could get it for less than 15 since it doesn't have all the options. How do you know it has HLSD?
