• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    2001 GP SE AutoZone Pilot Collision Brand Replaement Headlight Lenses - Pre Aligned?

    Just put a set of the subject replacement headlight lenses on my 2001 GP SE. I picked them up through AutoZone for about 80 per side. Big improvement over the originals, which were fogged on both the outside and INSIDE of the lenses. I previously cleaned up the outside fogging, but didn't...

    2001 GP SE Rocker Panel Repair - Update

    Well, I FINALLY was able to get to replacing the rockers on the 2001 GP SE. Bought the Sherman 844-04s direct from Sherman, they arrived in a few days, several days ahead of the quoted date. The 8440-04s sent were universals, same straight sections for both left and right sides. They are...

    2001 GP SE - Recommendations for Drop in Front Speaker Replacements?

    I'm OK with the original stock sound system in my 2001 GP SE, but the main front speakers are starting to rattle a bit, probably dried out and torn cones from the sound of them. Looking for a pair of reasonably priced drop in replacements. Once I pop the grilles off, will they go back on, or...

    2002 GP SE 3.1 with 95K - 87 or 93 Octane?

    Our 2001 GP SE has really been running great since it got its new Walker factory replacement cat, rear O2 sensor, new Delco platinum plugs and wires, fuel pump, fuel filter and MAF sensor. Pulls like a locomotive now all the way up to 5 grand going uphill, prior to the cat replacement it could...

    Power Loss and Bogy Throttle Shortly After Startup/Warmup Every Day - 2001 GP SE 3.1

    So it looks like I've come through my slow loss of coolant situation in my 2001 GP SE, after treating the coolant with Blue Devil sealer - everything is working fine in the coolant area, have only added a tiny amount of coolant since the treatment a few weeks ago, a dramatic improvement. Now I...

    2001 GP SE 3.1 slowly Losing Coolant - From Where?

    Been having to top off the coolant overflow tank quite a bit lately on the 2001 3.1. Not obvious where it is going though. No sign of it in the oil or the exhaust, engine running great, no CEL codes, no signs of leakage under the engine after parking it hot. Can't see any coolant collecting...

    2001 GP SE Rocker Panel Rust Repair

    Just got my 2001 GP SE back from insurance work to repair the left front fender, hood and headlight damage from a deer literally running into the car (NOT the other way around). That part of the car now looks great, and the body shop is also gong to replace an old damage right front door on my...

    2001 GP SE - Swap Manual Pasenger Side Seat and (Non-Working) Power Driver Side Seat?

    The power driver's side seat won't move forward or aft, although the height and tilt adjustments do work. I'm hoping for just a bad switch or something easy /cheap to fix. No indication that the motor is trying to run in the fore and aft mode. For a short term quick fix, so my wife and I can...

    2001 GP SE Body Parts Needed

    Looking for a good used dark bronzemist metallic front passenger door, ideally complete with a taupe interior trim, that would hopefully make for an easy swap onto our 2001 GP SE. Anyone have one of these or can point me to a someone who has them? Also looking for replacement rocker panel...

    Sluggish Respose - Low Coolant Level Warning Light 2001 3.1 V6 GP

    Lately the subject warning light takes a very long time to go out after a cold engine start up. The car has not lost any significant amount of coolant and level is exactly where it should be, and was previous to this problem developing. Eventually the light will go out and stay out until the...

    Other End of the Hard Platic Hose That Plugs Into the Air Inlet Duct Goes Where?

    The whole darn hose assembly came off while I was trying to unplug the upper end of it from the nipple on the top dead center of the rubber air duct at the inlet to the throttle body in prep for taking the duct off. Was taking the duct off to fix pinched wiring to the Throttle Position Sensor...

    Car Suddenly Throwing Codes P0122 P0452 P1635 On Starting, Fuel Gauge Wacky

    This all started a few days ago during our near zero degree weather. CEL on startup, can clear the subject codes and they wont come back until the next engine start up. Fuel gauge (tank is actually about 1/2 to 3/4 full) all over the place, goes randomly from empty with associated low fuel...

    Front Passenger Side Floorboard Flooded Out After Heavy Wet Snow Followed By Rain

    Went to use my 2001 GP this morning after we had about 2 inches of heavy wet snow followed by heavy rain all night. Huge lake in the front passenger foot well, was not there when the car was parked early last night. We have had some minor in-leakage on that side and and I suspect the cowl bulb...

    2001 GP ABS/TRAC OFF Warning Lights Come On When Turning Right

    Has been happening fairly regularly of late, suspect a bad connection or damaged wiring at one of the front wheel speed sensors, based on when the lights are triggered on. I sometimes can trigger them on simply by cranking the steering wheel over to the right with the car fully stopped. Going...

    2001 GP SE Factory CD Radio Lights for Controls All Work, Digital Display Doesn't

    At first I thought the radio digital frequency display digits were completely out, but today with the sun shining on the display, I could actually see that the display is working, but is VERY dim. I can shine a flashlight on the display to see the digits as well. All of the rest of the radio...
