Thoroughly inspect the CVT transmission for smooth operation, listen for unusual noises, and check its service history.
Check for rust, especially on the subframe, rocker panels, and wheel arches, particularly if the car originates from regions with road salt.
Conduct a comprehensive test drive at various speeds to assess road noise, steering feel, and overall vehicle dynamics.
Verify maintenance records, paying close attention to regular CVT fluid changes, which are crucial for its longevity.
Arrange a pre-purchase inspection by a trusted independent mechanic, especially for vehicles imported from auctions.
Factor in potential future CVT repair or replacement costs into your budget, as it's the most common and expensive issue.
