Nissan altima repairs .. How crucial ?

I am in process of buying a 97 nissan altima , 120k , the quote is $2800. I got it checked from mechanic and he suggested following repairs.



1) Strut Assembly

2) Strut Mounts

3) Motor Mounts

4) Flat Belts

5) Valve Cover Gasket, cover, outer

6) Valve Cover Gasket, spark plug, inner

7) flat P/S flush

8) flat tranny flush

9) flat coolant flush

10) axle shaft seals



In all repairs worth 1900 $ including labour. I understand the motor mounts and struts .. but are other things required. how crucial are they. This might be a little bit silly as you havent seen the car, but still any suggestions.



The biggest cost in all is motor mounts. It costs about 900 including labour. They have never been changed in 120k. The car does vibrate a bit due to that, but if i dont change them what will be the effects ?



Looking forward to your help.Nissan altima repairs .. How crucial ?
Nissans are good cars, if you do go through with the repairs, the car will probably last you a very long time. But, imports, as you know, are incredibly expensive to repair when something does go wrong.



I'm no mechanic, but the coolant flush is not necessary. You should not get the tranny flushed either, unless you notice significant problems in shifting.



I really don't know about the rest. I'd say for that year and that kind of mileage, you are probably getting a good deal buy paying $2800 for the car and getting the repairs done on top of that. Having said that, I would probably do it, but also be prepared to drive the car into the ground, because if you decide to sell it, you will not get out of it what you put into it, as far as a sale price goes.



If this is really causing you to struggle with a decision, I would not hesitate to take it somewhere else for a second (or even third) opinion. You will surely find out if you are getting scammed or not. If you happen to decide to follow through with all of the recommended repairs, it's not like you have to get everything done at once either. Nothing on that list is incredibly pressing, but I guess it's importance depends on what you intend to use the vehicle for. Example, do you need it for work, or just to get back and forth to work?Nissan altima repairs .. How crucial ?
