• 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.

    low end knock/rattle

    Ok, I have a 02 gtp, stock, it has a low end knock/rattle, I have knowledge of rod knocks since I've had 2 in my 97 gtp that I used to own, this sounds similar but not the same.

    02 gtp trans to 03 gtp trans?

    I have the "no OD" situation, and I don't have $1600 for a rebuild, $2000 for a re-manufactured, or $1200 for a clone that will probably result in the same problem, so I'm asking can I find an 03 4t65e-HD for my 02 gtp since GM realized that the 4th gear stripping was a major problem after all...

    Power Steering

    Ok, I shoudve asked this awhile ago. My P/S pump is groaning and chattering, it's been doing this since I had a mechanic put it on, mind that it was brand new when he did this and it did this as soon as he put it on and I drove it. The initial problem wasn't even the pump, it was a wobbling...

    Temperature, T-stat, Operating Temp

    Ok, I installed a Tstat on my 97 GP Gtp, 195 degree... now, on my temp guage (I live in Detroit and now the temps are 30-40 degrees) the car warms up faster now that I've replaced the t stat, but I'm still concerned that the temp guage needle is just above 1/4 of the temp guage, before I...
