• 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.

What did you do to your Car today?

You 04+ guys can see your trans temps on the DIC, cant you? I don't think I can check mine, but I'm still planning on getting a cooler. Still not sure how to hook it up. (Cutting lines and using hose clamps on adapters or something)


Not all 04+ can. My old 04gp didn't. But their easy to hook up
 


Tried to tighten front bumper cover, missing a push pin. Is 11589290 the GM part number? Can I find something similar at AZ or Advance?
Looks common.
 


I didn't get the kit. I bypassed the radiator cooler, used the hose and clamps the cooler came with. I went with the Hayden 1404 and that was a tight fit. How will you fit the 1405 in there?

So you used a line cutter and cut the metal part of the trans cooler line, and hooked the rubber line right up to the metal line?
I have the 97-03 design, so it may be different than yours. I looked in there and I saw lots of room. I may try to get a pic

Nah just cut the rubber lines by the trans. The metal lines turn to rubber in between the transmission and radiator cooler. Splice those with 3/8 barbed fittings. I used fuel injection hose clamps and lock wired them to each other
 
Took the stripes off. (Ass pain).
Changed serpentine belt. (Still noise)

Tried to fix the bumper from the accident I had (saw how bad the frame and gave up)

Now car looks boring.

Thinking about painting the rims.
What color goes with silver gp?

Red rims?
Black?
White?

Should be a simple push type retainer. If you can get another one out you can compare them. Advance should have them on hand I'd grab extra as well cuz once they get dirt in them they don't slide at all to pull them back out. So if you ever try to fix something behind the bumper you'll more than likely break most of them

I simply took the clip off the radiator top and bottom, and put hose clamps on the trans lines into the trans cooler.

The cooler itself comes with hose, clamps, and some plastic mounting push thru type of things. I mounted mine to the radiator brace in front of the condenser instead of using the push thru things.

Had to take the GP up north to help move my grandma into the assisted living home, then drove her 93 Crown vic mega boat on wheels back down here so we can tune it up and sell it for her. Had my dad drive my car back home and I think we got an avg of 28-29 mpg with having to take the slower county roads round the Mille Lacs Lake. Chalk up another 260+ mile road trip.
 
Bought a new key fob on ebay and reprogrammed.

Finally I have an alarm. :)
Now I just need a shotgun and I dare these *****es to break into my car again.

I believe only those with the 5 button DIC.
