Carfax or Autocheck

Hello,

Carfax: $40, 30 days unlimited
Autocheck: $22, 60 days unlimited

To you, which one is more reliable?
Thank you

Or someone could run a free carfax for me that would be great

Did you ask the seller if they have the carfax? The guy I bought my turbo from bought it for me...maybe your seller can do the same?

I've used both, not sure if there is a difference. Maybe check them both and see where they are sourcing from.

Carfax might be higher priced due to their name.

Edwin,

I have not asked yet....but I did ask once before like: do you have its carfax available that could provide me? He replied: No, I do not have one. So, that meant a big no no

I saw autocheck has 17records, and carfax has 22 records. Therefore, am confused which one should I run?!

Thank you

Thank you David.

I just talked to Chris, service manager at Hennessy, about its service records. So far so good. No problems found.
Let's see how Ryland's PPI first, then I will go from there.
