• 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.

    Blower fan stop working after car wouldn't start

    On Friday we had a really cold morning and my car wouldn't start, even tried to jumpstart it. So today I put it on the charger and got it started, however the blower wasn't working - it's never had this problem before. I have a 99 GTP with digital climate controls. I can hear the doors etc...

    Smoke from rear of engine compartment - oil?

    My car has been sitting most of the summer, and when I start it now I'm getting a lot of smoke from the engine bay by the firewall. I'm guessing this is the rear valve cover and oil / needs gasket? I believe this was replaced previously in a recall. I don't think it's coolant / LIM? I'm not...

    Headlights/interior lights go out, work fine with high beams

    I was coming home this evening in my 99 GTP in the rain and suddenly my headlights and dash/dic went out. Fog lamps stayed on. Turning on the high beams the dash lights all came back on. Turning them off the dash would flicker few a few seconds/stereo between daytime/night lighting and go off...

    P0650 - Check Engine Light issue, bulb ok, low voltage to bulb

    I've had a P0650 issue for a while, which is an issue with the check engine light itself which in my case won't light. Clear code and it and it comes back. I took it apart and replaced the bulb, even though the old one tested ok. Still not fixed. From what I read the light is controlled by the...

    Lack of power when passing

    I have a 99 GTP and when at highway speeds when I go to pass and pull out and give a decent amount of gas the boost gauge does to full but it just slowly accelerates and doesn't feel right. Does start to accelerate quicker. Previously it would actually shake, but I replaced the plugs and that...

    Suspected brake line burst - condition of system? *pics*

    I had a brake failure after I had to slam on my brakes to avoid hitting someone who pulled out right in front of me. Luckily I did stop. After that I had almost no brakes, but was almost home. Fluid was very low, can see it pouring out when I hit the brakes but not sure the exact location...

    ac compressor leaking? (pic)

    I have a serious leak in my AC system - I fill it and it works fine for a day or two and then stops cooling. Put some dye in it and I believe I followed the whole system under the hood at least, only see some dye on the side of the compressor. Not very much, though. Tried to take a picture...

    Requesting pic of door sill with fender/ground effects - help with repair

    I've just replaced a fender after some old accident damaged. Took a lot of work to get everything lined up, needed some spacers at the bottom of the fender. The ground effects still need some work at the fender, I don't really have a good reference so I'm hoping someone here has a good 99-03...

    Source for hood release cable for 99 GTP?

    I have a 99 GTP and I think my hood release cable has stretched - the "bead" at the latch doesn't sit against the arm like I assume it should so you can't get enough pull to open the hood. I put a spacer in to fill the gap so it works but I want to replace the cable. Anyone sourced one...

    Missing HVAC CTRL fuse? Damaged? (pic)

    I was doing some work on my car and had pulled the air bag fuse and I noticed the HVAC CTRL fuse is missing shown on the sticker (and in the service manual), and it appears only one side has a contact. I'm not sure if this was a last minute change that isn't documented or the previous owner...

    Tip to repair broken clip on door switch plate bezel

    Having to go into my door so many times I broke the clip at the top of door switch plate - I wanted to try to repair mine, especially since they're more pricey for a couple. I also had a bunch of door panel clicks to replace the ones I wore out going into the door and they appear to be a perfect...

    Question on ABS wire

    I spliced in a new connector to wheel speed sensor and it fixed my ABS/TCS issue for about a week. Still looks ok (maybe it's another wheel, happened after a big temperature change, snow in wheel wells turned to ice) ... I just used butt splice connectors and a bunch of electrical tape. Going to...

    Park to reverse thunk, which mounts? (video)

    Ok, so I seem to have the fairly common park into reverse thunk on my 99 GTP (207K). I'm hoping it's the top mounts since those are easy to fix, but I'm not sure. I did check the bottom mount through the driver's wheel and it looks good - no coated in leaking fluid at least. I can't tell if...

    Question checking trans fluid level

    I have a newly acquired 99 GTP with 70K on the rebuilt transmission. I has a bit of a clunk going from park to reverse and when it shifts around 30mph. I checked the fluid level after driving about 30 miles (sub freezing temperatures currently) to warm it up, did the shift to all gears and idle...

    Air bag not working, module? (pics)

    After replacing the SRS bulb in my recently acquired 99 GTP I've discovered my air bag light is on. It blinks 7 times and then stays on. I know it was in an accident in the past, and checking the driver airbag I saw the bag connector was cut in the wheel and was twisted and taped back together...
