pull the fuel filter heater plug and look for fuel.

if you can - you might try to pull one end of the hose from Turbo to Intercooler to look for oil buildup.
(unless the previous owner had a Provent or EHM - there will be some - you're just trying to figure out how much)

In the test drive, see if you can get some time out on the interstate and see how it performs accelerating and decelerating between 55-60 mph. If there is a shudder, it is likely either from the notorius air in fuel problem or a dying torque converter.

Also check and see if it has had the F37 and F31 recalls done. If not, the value would be higher in my estimation (as the tranny shift points have not been neutered.)
