These were the codes pulled from the car. Is it worth buying at $5500? Or should I just wait for something else to come along?

These codes are actually normal. The power steering throws this code when the codes are checked with the engine off. If you start the car check the codes, this goes away. The other codes are with the automatic air and I see them often there’s no problem.

I figured as such. I ran the codes in accessory mode, which is what I'm used to doing. The AC worked fine, so until it becomes an issue I'm not gonna bother. Overall, is this car a good buy?

Its a good buy if the trans is in perfect condition. I would have liked to have viewed a picture of the trans pan floor and filter screen to be sure of its condition.

I didn't notice anything "off" during the test drive. No grinding or squealing, just a barely audible whirring, almost like an EV. My local AutoZone has the filters for pretty cheap, which is a bonus.
