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

    Low Beams don't work but high beams do

    2006 Grand Prix GT So out of nowhere my low beams stopped working, both at the same time. Here's what I've done so far. 1. Verify that the low beam bulbs were not broken (I'm assuming this is the same as a regular light bulb?) The filament was not broken inside? 2. Replaced the headlight...

    Loss of power / stall / strange noise?

    Trying To Cool Intake Temps

    So the more I've been around this community, the more I'm learning that some of the best mods address cooling the intake temps. I don't have the money to intercool, and am wanting to swap to E85 in the future. But for now, I have a Hot air intake, which I figure is worse than the stock air box...

    Oil Pan

    So a few months ago, I had an engine put into my 2006 GT. The car came with an L32, but an L67 was put in. I went to change my oil over the weekend, and noticed that I was unable to fit my socket wrench over the bolt. The transmission fluid pan was in the way. I thought I was just being an...

    Pulsing / Pulsating Exhaust

    Hello, Got an engine put into my car so it's running again. I notice that my exhaust is pulsing, like vroom...vroom...vroom (maybe every second or so). I don't see the tach going up or down. What could be the cause? Thanks! Matt

    What To Look For When Buying Used Engine?

    My engine is shot, or at least to me it is, per my skill level. So I'm looking to buy a new to me engine for my 2006 GT. All I'm really seeing for a reasonable price are the Series II engines, which is fine as I can install my LIM and blower and that makes it series III? I was given some...

    Putt or Poof every 1.5 seconds or so

    I have a 2006 GP GT with 174000 miles on it. About every 1.5 to 2 seconds or so, at idle, I notice my engine go from about 700 rpm to about 600 (rough guess). Then it goes right back up. When I'm standing behind the car, I can hear it either puff or poof at the same interval as stated above...

    Is My Engine On Its Way Out?

    2006 Grand Prix GT - No mods My wife was driving merging onto the interstate yesterday and had car troubles. She called me and stated she wasn't able to get above 45 MPH or so, and that the CEL kept blinking. I've seen it blink a few times then go off a few weeks prior, so I decided to change...

    Hard Transmission Shift 06 GP GT

    A while back, a friend and I attempted to replace my radiator. There are two metal lines going into the bottom (maybe middle) right side of the radiator as you're looking towards the rear of the vehicle. I figured those needed to be removed to get the radiator out, but found when I attempted...
