• 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 GTP - A/C intermittently works

    Just got the system refilled and it blows cold most of the time but today it was just hot. Really warm outside and in. Then for no apparent reason it started blowing cool then ice cold. It has done this before but never been able to track it down. Any suggestions? Really would like it to be...

    surging between 2-3 and 3-4

    Funny problem. 2001 GTP with rebuilt tranny (195K miles) and currently 224K miles. Car runs great but I have noticed that when going up a slight grade and the car wants to shift up that it will oscillate between 2-3 or 3-4 gear unless I get on or off the throttle a bit. RPM will hunt about 1000...

    2001 GTP - Transmission fluid pressure at radiator?

    Hey, Just had a fun day with my car. Sometime before I got her someone did a repair and installed a fluid hose between the transmission and the radiator. Looks to be a low pressure hose with standard hose clamps but it's been there for over 100,000 miles with no problems. One end of the hose...

    2001 GTP w/ 213,000 miles and counting

    Just wanted to share an experience I had today. My '01 GTP has 213,000 miles on her and is doing great. I just changed the plugs and have to admit I was hesitant to roll the engine forward to get access to the back plugs but after I got into doing it I was OK. I bought a Haynes manual for her...

    2001 GTP won't start on 1st try - 2nd try is ok

    I see this problem quite a bit lately. I will put the key in and crank it but it won't start. If I release the key (not off, but just release it) and try again it starts fine. I can't seem to find any pattern to it as it does not do it every time but it is happening more often. Any ideas where...

    tcs off indicator and ABS indicator both on - why??

    I just had something come up on my 2001 GTP. I get an ABS light and TCS off light on at the same time. Sometimes the ABS light will go off on a restart but the TCS off light is on most of the time. Can anyone tell me what this might be caused by?? Thanks, Jerry

    idle problems - I may have spoken too soon

    Ok, the car died yesterday and while it would restart fine, it would not idle. Here is what I have done far: New fuel pump New fuel pressure regulator New MAF sensor (about 2 months ago due to error code) New IAC (adjusted on Friday and it fixed my chronic idle problem) Verified fuel pressure at...

    idle problems on my 2001 GTP - fixed

    Just wanted to share an experience I had tonight. My 2001 GTP would not idle. Period. It would run if I kept on the gas but take my foot off and it would die. I have changed the fuel pump, Idle Air Control Valve, Fuel Pressure regulator, fuel filter and tested the fuel pressure. I pulled the...

    changed a fuel pump and icv

    I have a 2001 GTP and had some stalling problems. I swapped out the fuel pump and idle control valve and it runs better but now it is hard to start. It has to crank longer or multiple times but once it starts we seem to run fine. I had some help swapping the fuel pump and wonder if it is...
