What to check before you keep, repair, or sell

Inspection checklist
- Scan all modules and keep the codes and readiness-monitor report before anything is cleared.
- Inspect fluid condition and leaks, cooling-system pressure, charging system, tires, brakes, suspension play, and corrosion.
- Review maintenance records and list every due item for the next 12 months, not just today's repair.
- Get a condition-adjusted value using the actual trim, mileage, title status, body condition, and local market.
