Buying an RXP supercharged 2007

[Rubends]

I am looking to buy a 2007 RXP 215hp with just 82 hours on it...
Can you tell me what the problems are with these engines? I know about the supercharger needs to be rebuild. But is there also something with the valves? Or is this only with the older models?

Thanks for your reply's...:thumbsup:

The valve stem issues were solved with the 2007 models and up. The only issue I have heard with this model year is some had a bad rear motor mount - try to wiggle engine - should be no movement
if it moves you have a mount issue - replace if necc.

On the supercharger make sure you have PROOF it's been done. Most sellers will say it's been done as they know of these issues but it's a $500 bill so unless that's been completed as
part of the PO regular maintenance I doubt they would spend the $500 prior to selling - and remember it's 100 hours or two years.

Thanks for your reply...

Good news on the valve stem!
If i buy it i will rebuild the sc no matter what. So then i'll know its ok.
I will check the motormount!

You've been a great help!
Thanks again!

Some bad valves were still found on the 2007 models I think. 2008 and newer are 100% good valves. Bad valves will have a number that starts with 72 and the good valves will have a number that starts with 75.

Hope that helps
