    Funny that the dealer wouldn't budge due to inadequate maintenance. I could
    imagine what he would have said if it was brought in for warranty work......

    I very much doubt whether there is any problem with the engine. What
    I would do is to have the oil pressure checked. If there is excesive
    wear, clearances within the engine would increase leading to a fall in
    oil pressure.

    The oil filter is very efficient at taking out particulate matter and
    with gas engines there is no or very little dilution of the oil by
    fuel so lack oil lubricity, which will lead to wear, will not occur.
    What might be a problem is a loss of additives in the oil that leads
    to some sludge. That can easily be rectified with an engines as young
    as this one by flushing. In conclusion if the price is right, go for
    it, you are most unlikely to have problems.

    I've never regretted *not* buying a specific car!
