I'm planning to buy this honda s2000 tomorrow but i just notice in the carfax that it had a Differential and transfer case service on it. Is it a good idea to still buy the car because i'm sure it was in some kind of accident but i cant tell even when i was there. Can anyone explain any reason if there was a Differential and transfer case service.

 

Service would imply that the diff fluid was changed.

 

It's just routine maintennance, every 30K miles, I believe.

-good luck.

Sounds like a maintenance notice. Where are you buying it from - a Honda dealer or another?

 

Depending on how in depth you want to go. It should where the service was rendered and you can contact them and have them look up what was done to the car just to confirm.

 

oh, what about VIN glass etching when it was at 3 miles is that common or suspicious. States on the CarFax

 

That's just to help prevent theft. I wouldn't be scared of it.

 

From a Chevrolet dealer lol

 

One last question is it bad to see Engine/powertrain computer/module checked on Carfax at 35,000 on a 08 s2k

 

SuperSaiyan, just like on Honda-Tech.

If you have concerns over the vehicle, pay the $70 or so to have a Honda dealership do a Pre-Purchase Inspection and they will be more than happy to tell you every little minor detail wrong with it. Simple as that.

Asking the same questions over again isn't going to net you too many different responses, and I'm guessing this probably is your first car purchase?
