I found a 2012 Honda Fit on Craigslist with 113,000 miles on odometer (actual mileage: 230,000+ odometer tampered with, CarFax calls this car a Branded Not Actual Mileage car.)
You can feel the clunking the slight lurch (and kinda hear it too) in various acceleration actions (though not decelerating I think.) What do you suppose the problem is? Do you think this is something I can fix short of replacing the AT?
Other than that and the fake mileage, the seller is asking for about half the cost of a typical 2012 Honda Fit, a quick VIN search on Google reveals that this car was sold at action for about a thousand less than his asking price. The seller is a Craigslist curb stoner, my guess is that they generally buy cars at auction to refurbish for sale at dealerships, but rejected this one for possible real transmission issues----this would explain why they didn't fix the minor issues such as the mirrors not working or one of the windows not working (why put more money into it right?)
Can the AT be repaired? Other than this clunking the engine accelerates very well, the CarFax reveals that the previous owner did maintenance religiously on it.
