Asked by murray_toby - Fri Nov 3 16:59:22 2006 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. I work for a major auto insurance company as an adjuster. We send all of our vehicles to IAA. It might not be as accurate as calling, but you should be able to get a pretty good approximation of a vehicle's salvage value online at their salvage analysis site. There are about 25 different classes of damage, and the option to look at pictures to get a better idea of the true salvage value. All you need is a year, make, model, and general description of the damage (left side, rollover, flood, etc.) and it will give you the average salvage sale amount for all matching vehicles within the last year. I dispatch IAA to pick vehicles up through their website as well. I don't know if it costs anything, as if it is, my company pays for it.

Q. I have a 98 nissan altima with a blown motor. should I buy a used engine/tranny from Japan. There is a local business here that imports them and sells them with a one year warranty. they claim they have 30,000 to 60,000 miles on them. Or should I buy from the local yard its got 80,000 with a six month warranty. Prices are a wash so im more interested in what would be the best investment. just to clarify the japan motor is sold from a local business. they have it in stock and do take returns if necessary they are 200 more. I just wonder if someone fwould maintain a car that they know must have a motor replacement in a couple of years Asked by Paul V - Thu Mar 5 21:44:41 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. I have installed one of the engines from overseas in a customers car. No problems what so ever. There are some goofy laws in some country's over seas that wont allow a engine with over a certain number miles on it to be used any longer. I believe its an emissions thing. So they are good running engines.
