I just bought an abused 2006 PT Cruiser for my kids, it only has 144500 km but it was not taken care of, I've replaced the front wheel bearing and the boot and tires and spent 2 whole days just cleaning. I have an OBDll reader and the only code was a battery disconnected in last 50 starts. But the thing is the dash displays P,R,N, D only and the shifter has 1 and 3 on the floor unit but it doesn't go down beyond drive. I have gone out on the highway and you can feel and see the tach indicate that the transmission is shifting as it should. 100 kph (60mph) is a touch over 2000 rpm.
So is this normal with the base model with a 2.4 engine and automatic transmission? It runs fine and with the bearing replaced an awful lot quieter.
