• 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.

    Sad puppy whine. SC oil went low. SC toast?

    My 02gtp has developed a sad whine, almost a puppy-ish whine, that is rpm dependent. It seems worse right now at idle and has developed into a varying whine. Sometimes its there, sometimes its not. It's like magic. The whine comes from the front passenger side. What do you think it is...

    Replacing rear struts in 02 GTP

    So, I got my car aligned and it fixed the steering wheel being way off... Now it seems to have amplified the rear struts squishiness. I reduced the air pressure and it helps, but they seriously need to be replaced b/c the back end hops around. And now on the interstate it rattles...

    Clearcoat Peeling on bumper below trunk lid

    I have a little bit of a clearcoat peeling problem on the concave portion of the bumper just below the trunklid. How do I repair it? And can I repair it without repainting the whole bumper? I intend to have the bumper repainted in probably less than 2 years so the fix would be temporary...

    Need new grille for 02 GTP... mine stolen...

    Yes, some bottomfeeding bottomfeeder neatly removed both my recessed grilles and 10 of my lug nut covers. Anyways... Since I need to head to the scrap yard, what kind of bit do I need to remove a donor grille? People are telling me I need a torx bit. But what size since I don't have any torx...

    Firestone Coolant Exchange

    I always get my coolant job done at Jiffy Lube, but this time I went to Firestone which has been better to me because they actually change your oil filter when they change your oil... You can skip to the last paragraph for the question. Anyways, it smelled horrible after I left and I just...

    Uh oh.... The dreaded oilcap...

    Well, I think I have been in denial. In January, I checked my oil and oil cap and noticed water droplets on the inside of the cap. I wiped it off and assumed it was from when I checked my oil after a car wash and I think a drop of water fell in from the hood. Anyways, I got a new batch of...

    Strange vibration/rattle... 02GTP

    I have a 2002 GTP with 46,000 miles. The power steering rack leaks and it is getting "groany" and whiney really fast, so that will need to be replaced. I add power steering fluid if needed, but the leak is miniscule. But the car has had a strange quirk that has been there since the day I...

    Tough hot starts.

    Well, I've browsed the forums and haven't found anything for tough hot starts, so here it goes. Yesterday it was warm (85F) and when I went to restart my 2002-40thGTP (38k mi) it was tough to get going. It took a good five seconds of cranking each time until it started. This happened twice...

    Heater problems: DRL, DIC go "out".

    I have a 2002 40th Anniv. GTP-S.C. with a hair under 36,000 miles. A few months ago the heater started acting funny. It would intermittently blow hard and then "slow down" for a moment and then return to normal all the while the DIC would dim slightly. This seems to be a "normal" problem here...
