• 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.

    Motor died - multiple error codes - clueless where to start looking

    Hi all. I know the rules about looking for post on a topic before posting but I wasn't sure where to start with this one. My 99 Grand Prix (non-super charged) was running smoothly when the check engine light came on flashing and the motor sputtered as if it was not getting fuel and died. Would...

    Over heating - Bad thermostat? Air in system?

    I changed out the heater core and thermostat on my 99 Prix. I flushed the entire system. Started overheating like mad. Heater temp would fluctuate. Possibly an air bleed issue? When running the motor with the heater on the air bleed screw would just sit there and hiss for over 30 minutes! No...

    Heater control - intermittantly working

    Odd problem - The control module in the dash for my 99 Grand Prix that controls the air flow, AC, Heater, temp etc intermittently works. The AC portion works OK. It will blow cold on the passenger side when Dual mode is selected. However the driver side vents blow mildly cool air at best. The...

    Fuel pump bad?

    I have a 99 Grand Prix 3.8 non super charged. The fuel gauge does not work and I have been monitoring my fuel via the digital consumption readout on the center consol. I let it get down pretty low, to probably about 1/2 to 3/4 of a gal. I parked on a slight hill, about 4% and the next day she...

    How to ID your Engine?

    Hi all. I know the drill and searched the forums first, but could not find something specific to my question. How do I ID the engine in my 99 Grand Prix? It was a salvaged car. The plastic cover for the motor that ID's the motor is gone. Nothing on the inside of the door or under the hood...

    Power side mirrors - not working

    Hi all. I searched the forums but was hard pressed to find something specific to my issue (If I missed it I apologize. I know that’s' a pet peeve for everyone here!) Neither of the power mirrors on my 99 Gran Prix work. I did not see the fuse in the box labeled accordingly. Did I miss...

    Rear view mirror - s'posed to do something?

    I have a 99 Grand Prix. Bought the car a few weeks back. Fixing all kinds of stuff. One thing I noticed it the rear view mirror has a cable running into the headliner. The mirror itself has a slightly different plane of view right in the middle that is oval shaped. THere is a button on there...

    Fuel sender - need to replace?

    99 Grand Prix 3.8 no super turbo flux capacitor. :th_laugh-lol3: Fuel gauge starts at full regardless of what's in the tank then creeps down to empty. Is this something with the gauge or is it the sending unit at the tank? I hope not the unit in the tank because the fuel pump and sending unit...

    Heater core - which hose?

    Hi all. Have a 99 Grand Prix. The heater core was bypassed by the previous owner. Obviously a leak or something. I ordered a new one. I was looking where it was bypassed and teh connectors for the old core, I am not sure which hose would go where. Which one is the intake and exit? I've attached...

    99 Grand Prix - general (sorta) questions

    Just bought a 99 Grand Prix (non super turbo - whatever). Needs some work. It runs ok and is smogged. That’s half the battle here in Calif. Some issues: Heater core was bypassed - I assume that mean a replacement Front windows do not work. - Is that a fuse? window regulator? Motor? How...
