• 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.

    P2135 code 2004 .....SOLVED

    Got the dreaded throttle position sensor code. The kinda needle in the haystack problem. All good if I don't go past half throttle. This is all happened when I had to hit it to merge into the correct lane. Instant pow when gassed and engine reduce power plus stabilitrak DIC. Checked when I got...

    04+ door latch

    Does anyone know if the left side and right side front and back are the same? All I can seem to find are the fronts...relatively cheap. The right front I see look the same physically as my right rear.

    Recommend an ABS code reader.

    Okay old stuff here but I checked the one Smuts recommended a few years ago and it's nowhere to be found. I'm thinking the Innova 3100i might be the one. I don't have the time to look every where(well I would if I had to but WTF why). If this can pin point the area it's worth the 100.

    Best strut mounts??

    K guys, I replaced my front Monroe strut mounts with some Duralast(I know not the best) to solve the groaning. So anyway I'm thinking my slow mph clunking from rear might be the POS Monroe strut mounts. I have replaced everything else(cept forward lateral links). The Monroes are about 3 years...

    2004-2006 style Moog front end link failure

    I replaced the end links on my 04 CompG with Moog problem solvers 2 years ago. After doing sway bar bushings, Moog C series LCAs and new strut mounts my right side is popping. I reached in and twisted the link on the passenger side easily, I couldn't budge the driver side. Yes I periodically...

    04+ Grand Prix coolant bottle level

    This has been eating at me. I used to keep it wherever towards the top. After replacing the o-rings on the metal elbows I decided to try and find the proper level. Fill it to the hot level/fill it to the cold level, I can't get the cold level line in my head because it seems too low. The line...

    compg trailing arm bolts, aluminum or Dorman steel?

    K guys. I am replacing the trailing arms and brackets with the Dorman bar and brackets. The old bracket bolts are aluminum with aluminum studs. Should I use the old or the new Dorman steel. I am thinking the old aluminum. In grand GM fashion they only used 3 of the 4 holes in the brackets...

    Rear facing lateral link adjustment

    I will be replacing the rear facing lateral links in hope of getting rid of some clunks. The Dorman trailing arms will also be going in with new brackets. If I use sized bolts mating old with new in the holes of the links, that should get me almost spot on wouldn't it? I really should have...

    GPONA.info

    So you are searching for some stuff and come across some links but the old GPONA.com links don't work. Replace the .com with info in the address bar and voila. Yeah most of us rocket scientists know this, but ya just never know. Nothing pisses me off more when I come across a write-up with...

    Geico or Progressive.

    I have Progressive now with a $366 renewal for 6 months. Problem is it's a $1000 deductible. Out of curiousity I checked Geico and I can get a $250 deductible for $388/6 months with the same coverage. Kind of a no brainer. I had to deal with Progressive in February when my daughters car was...

    Smoothing plasti dip with Xylene

    My daughter drives a 2004 Toyota Corolla with practically no clear left on the car. Well there are spots here and there. After I was done with sanding/polishing/Opti-lens on her yellowed headlights, I suggested using the the Dip on her hood and grill. She thought it would look better than what...

    Do Grand Prixs in stock form eat brakes?

    Okay my brother is buying a 2002(he didn't know what trim) Grand Prix. It will be his sons first car. $1000 and 130,000miles. He is actually buying it from a neighbor who is a mechanic at Pomps in Milwaukee. Apparently his neighbor told him it goes through brakes(meaning 20,000 miles) no matter...
