Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Replaced struts and now have ABS light

    Hi all: I have a 2003 Regal GS. I just replaced all 4 struts and as soon as I put it back together and went to start it the service vehicle and ABS lights came on (they came on almost instantly, it didn't seem like the car even needed to think about it). I didn't notice anything out of the...

    Code P0502 and P0503

    Hey all: Was driving along and car started bucking and speedo jumping all around. Then speedo completely died and car started running fine. Has codes P0502 and P0503 pending. I suspect the P0503 was when things were bouncing around going wonky, then the P0502 came when it totally cut off. Any...

    Glove box light

    Hello: I had to remove the glove box light for something and now I can't seem to figure out the correct orientation to re-install it. Anyone know the correct direction or willing to send a quick picture (2002 GP)? Thanks in advance!

    Oil change better every 10k miles with full synthetic, or 3k with conventional?

    The title basically says it all, but all else being equal would you prefer to buy a car that had the oil changed every 10k miles or so with full synthetic, or would you prefer a vehicle that had the oil changed every 3k miles with conventional oil? Thoughts, and what are your reasons?

    Driver's window auto down switch

    I just did the window switch cleaning, and things are working MUCH better. However, I think I mixed up some parts in putting it back together. I swear that the driver's window auto-down you could push it lightly to manually go down, or give it a 'full' push to auto-down. However, mine now...

    How do I change ALL the fluid (in converter and such) when servicing?

    So I have dropped the pan and changed the filter, but I would also like to change ALL the fluid. Usually I finish the job and refill the pan, then remove the return line and start the car to pump out the fluid from the converter and cooler/lines, then put back together, top off and I am done...

    Need help--heater randomly only works on high, DIC goes out when fan stops

    So I had this weird/random problem today. I was driving along and noticed the DIC went blank. Like totally blank (I have gone through it and replaced all bulbs awhile back). It then came back on a few seconds later and I didn't think anything of it, but then it did it again for longer. This time...

    Ideas on no crank/start?

    So I went out to the car this morning to go to work and when I opened the door the interior lights came on like normal, then I put the key in and turned and nothing happened. Not only that, but the interior lights went off when I turned the key (I still had the door open). After this I noticed...

    Shift lock solenoid wiring diagram/schematic

    So the dreaded 'won't come out of park' finally happened. Does anyone have a wiring diagram/schematic for the park lock solenoid? I want to put some power to it and confirm it is the solenoid. The ignition switch works just fine--key always comes out (after putting it back in park), it doesn't...

    Speedo and weight savings question

    Hello: I have an issue that seems abnormal with the speedometer. I was cruising down the road the other day and threw it in neutral while coasting (don't ask why--I had a reason but I don't remember now), and when it went into neutral the speedo almost immediately went down to zero. This can't...

    Question for owners of/about anniversay, special edition, daytona cars

    Hi all: I have the 40th anniversary edition and I have noticed that when opening the hood after it rains or after washing the car that a ton of water runs out of the hood onto the windshield/cowl area. It seems that the vents on the hood are allowing water in and then the hood liner is holding...
