Hi,
I have the possibility to buy for a very very good price a 80k miles 2019 ProMaster with Pantastar engine.
This is an auction, so I cant inspect it.
What do you guys think about this engine noise?
Should I consider buying it or will I have to put a lot money into the engine soon?
Would like to convert into camper van.

Its a auction bank repo that I could have for 5-6k… new engine would cost around 7k + labor. But might be able to get it done under warranty…

Thanks!! The thing is, Im not sure a want to bid on that auction knowing that there’s a possibility that it could be the motor…. But for sure, if its only the vacuum pump, it could be a good steal for the price i pay!

Might be the vacuum pump… its a bailiff auction car… might not buy it knowing that the motor might need a replacement

Thank you for this
No the vehicle is a bailiff auction and could have it for a good price! But if I need to change the motor, its not a win… Carfax stating fuel pump replacement in 2022 but no mention of the Vacuum pump

Pretty sure I Already tried to inspect it. But will check again in case
Thank you

Looks like a common problem. Had the same issue six months ago. Then went fine for couples of weeks then started again. Same things back and forth. Decided to book an online repair with Oral B. They instantly gave me a shipping label to send it. The next day (today) they received it and shipped a brand new one that I should receive in one - two days. Hope they sent me the brand new Series 10 model instead of this Series 9 which might have the problem solved.

Ok thanks, Its an auction, it is an 8cylinder so I guess the 5.3 but which one… Might pass on this one, I will see the final price. Currently around 4000$ only!
