Bought an Aurora Today
So me and the GF bought a 97 Aurora today.. 98000 miles.
There was some oil leaking and the ABS and Traction lights were on so we got the guy down to 3000 bucks..
I figure for 3 grand i didnt do too bad, hes gonna look into the ABS problem before we take delivery in a couple days
PICS COMING SOON

Congrats on the new aurora purchase!
As for the ABS problem:
Occasional problems on this vehicle are failures of the Antilock Brake System (ABS) Pressure Modulator Valve (PMV) and the ABS Relay. The cost to repair the ABS PMV is estimated at $474.00 for parts and $117.00 for labor. The cost to repair the ABS Relay is estimated at $12.00 for parts and $26.00 for labor. All prices are estimates based on $65 per flat rate hour and do not include diagnostic time or any applicable sales tax.
For the oil leak, I'm not too positive of what it could be. We'd need a little more details, etc.

im not too concerned abouit the ABS, its not worth me putting 500 into fixing it.. The oil leak im assuming is one of the crank seals or the oil pan... the pan has some wet spots on it but doesnt look t be leaking all that badly..
