• 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.

    Bike Rack???

    Anyone have any suggestions for a bike rack? I had a thule I had used on a previous car but it won't quite fit on the GP w/o scratching the lip of the spoiler. I can't seem to find any that would fit the car without causing any scratching... Anyone else have this problem or have a brand...

    HID for 2004

    What's a good HID conversion kit for an 04 grand prix? I am getting a little confused in my research and am not certain what exactly I need to be looking for! Help!:eek:

    04 GP wiper pain!

    If you check out any parking lot in New England during a snowy or otherwise icy day, you'll notice that most of the cars have their wipers popped up so that the windshield is easier to clean and you don't have to worry about the wipers being frozen to the windshield... Well... this is NOT the...

    How much

    How much do you think one could get for an 04' GTP with approx 50,000 miles? I see a few on Ebay with 100,000 + K going for 9,995- 12,000. My guess is I still couldn't get much more than that even with half the mileage... What do you think? I'm only considering this because of the price of...

    2004 GTP traction control issue

    I have an 04 GTP... Traction control was acting funny for a couple of days. I would get in the car and the light would be on the cluster, telling me that TC was off. While I was driving, the light would turn off, then I would hear the beep as it comes back on - it would go on and off on and...

    Intermediate Steering Shaft.

    CLICK - CLACK, CRUNCH. Not supposed to make that noise when you turn the wheel at low speeds... Doesn't seem to be any issue with the suspension. Anyone here have issues with the intermediate steering shaft in their 04 + Gp's? From what I have researched it seems to be a pretty frequent...

    Up, Up, up...

    I climbed Mt. Washington with the GP the other day... At one point I had to pull over because she started getting a little hot...creeping up the mountain in 1st. Midway up... Way too foggy to get any good pics.

    Whats the highest???

    Whats the highest mileage you've heard of these engines going for? I love my supercharged 3800. One of the reasons I wanted the car so bad was simply because of the 3800. We had a 3800 Buick PA (1990) that first sold me on the 3800.... Those old Buick's I know went for well over 200,000...

    General question...

    This has nothing to do with GP's... just thought I would ask some people who might know something... When you have a key that says "Duplication prohibited" - is it still possible to find someone willing to duplicate? How illegal is it to duplicate such a key? Just curious.

    Low maintenance mods.

    I'm using this thing as a daily driver and the last thing I want is for something to break because of a mod I put on the poor thing... SO, what would be the most simple, low maintenance mod that one could do if they intend to continue using the GP as a daily driver??

    Dexcool to no dexcool

    Dexcrap- I mean Dexcool sucks, IMO. Once the warranty runs out I am thinking of switching to the old stuff. I have heard of a lot people doing this with claims that it is better than dexcool. Is it true that dexcool can actually cause more damage than it promises to prevent? Such as eating at...

    Cheap Interior??

    I love my 04 GP. I love the looks from the outside and I love them from the inside. I think the placement of everything on the interior is just great... BUT... why such cheapo-materials? The 04 Grand Prix GTP is supposed to be a sporty and luxury type car... I get the sport part. I just don't...

    Stupid youtubers...

    Type "Pontiac Grand Prix" into youtube and you'll get a bunch of vids with people taping their speedometers as they go crazy speeds at what appears to be impossible times.. But here is the real kicker... they really are pretty darn impossible times as far as I am concerned... See, typically...

    04's are the same... lame!

    No No... the cars aren't lame... but some parts sure are! I just can't imagine why GM wouldn't have known that this water leak issue was so prevelant in the older models that they couldn't have prevented it from happening on yet another body style... I open it up to see this wonderful image...

    How packed?

    Out of curiosity... How jam-packed are the 5.3's in these cars? I was just looking at my 3.8 SC and was thinking.. "Dang, this thing is tight." As I'm trying to break my elbow and forearm mid way just so that I could reach behind to get at my Power Steering Reservoir. Turns out, breaking your...

    Ugly Butt.

    The 04 + Grand Prix's, IMO, are a very nice looking car. I would dare say, again, that this new body style is one of the finest for the GP's yet. I don't particularly like the 97-03 style very much as far as stock is concerned, but do like those model years when the right people do the right...

    Potentially stupid question...

    Did I say potentially? How about absolutely? To my knowledge, in order to have the heated seat option in the 2004 GTP, one must have the leather seats... and just to have heated seats I have almost considered purchasing the leather seats and sticking them in the car and hooking them up and yada...

    Power steering whine on left turns only...

    Strangest thing... My power steering pump seems to scream when making moderate to hard turns - LEFT only. Never have this issue turning right. Anyone have this or have an idea as to what could be the issue and why only in one direction? I'm also getting a loud "Clunk" or perhaps "Click" is a...

    Supercharger oil.. how often?

    How often do you change your supercharger oil? I know the manual has its own ratings... but if you drive it hard what would you recommend?
