91 Allante

[CHL2T]

I am going to look at a 91 Allante and was wondering if the OBD code retrieval is the same as my 95 SLS....i.e. off/ warmer buttons

Car is only $1995 and if it aint too trashed, I'm gonna try to grab it

Anything in particular to look for that is going to be a deal breaker?

Thanks!

I would check for leaks (both drivetrain and roof)

check the electrical to be sure all is functioning.

Oh and dont forget to post pictures

There's probably a reason why it's that cheap so tread carefully.

Check the brakes very carefully. If you get any brake messages, prepare to spend $$$'s.

Also, check the tail light's very carefully. If the wrong bulbs were used, they will melt. Tail lights for these cars are extremely expensive. The same can be said for head lights.

Check the header pull down mechanism very carefully. It's almost impossible to find parts for these.

Anyways, good luck. These are very nice cars but can also eat a hole in your wallet.

I know all about money pit cars, I have 5 Mopars...lol

Thanks for the advice

As for the OBD?? Does it work the same as the 95 SLS?

Thanks again

Yes, should be pretty close. However, codes would be near the bottom of the list of things I would look for. Drive train parts and sensors are relatively inexpensive for this car. It's the Allante specific stuff that can kill you. Those things are Bosch Brakes, headlights, taillights, glass, window switches, seat switches, sheet metal, bumpers, weatherstripping, etc.
