- ✓Avoid early "DuoSelect" (robotized manual) cars unless you specifically want that experience; they eat clutches
- ✓Listen for a 2-3 second "rattle" on a cold start; this indicates cam variator failure
- ✓Check for sticky interior buttons, which can cost thousands to professionally refinish
- ✓The ZF automatic (2007+) is significantly more reliable and cheaper to run than the DuoSelect
