I want to buy this 2005 Honda crv with 166,000 miles. The a/c compressor was changed on it and the motor shakes at idle and when I'm braking. Would this car be a good buy? The owner only wants 4,000 for the vehicle. I'm worried about the "Black Death"
Scotty always recommends you have it checked by a mechanic you trust before you buy it but it sounds good to me. I checked and 4k seems like a good deal to me as long as it runs well and doesn't need any major maintenance. Give her a test drive and Scotty got the rest of the deets below

Sounds like the vehicle needs new engine and/or transmission mounts, if that’s all that’s wrong with it.
Have your mechanic check the car especially the shaking. Does it also shake when you put in gear and your foot on the brake?
Definitely have a mechanic check it. It could just be mounts, or something more serious.
