Hello All

I am going to see a 99 Bronzmist 3.2L GTP (246,000 KLMs) that has its key stuck in the ignition ??
Can you please tell me how to remove it, and what are the Cons of this car ie: are these cars economical on gas and parts??...what faults should I look for??

Thanks a bunch :th_mechanic:

the key could be stuck in the ignition because of some dumb solenoid in the steering column. Common problem. I have this problem. There is a little plastic cap on the bottom of the steering column you can just pop off and shove something up there until you hear a click. That will release the key.

My best guess on that problem. I've never heard of a 3.2L before...but okay. check it out.

there are no 3.2L motors ........if it is a gtp it is a supercharged 3.8L motor

3.1 is the closet thing to that. GTP was a supercharged 3.8 liter V6.
