how do you know if you have a bose system or factory amp?

I want to install an aftermarket radio in my 01 SLE. I'm trying to find the right wiring harness, but can't figure out if I have a bose system, or even a factory amp. Nothing in my car says bose on it, so I'd imagine that it doesn't have a bose system, but I just want to make sure because I've heard ...

Should I Buy an 04 Bonneville GXP?

Found a 2004 Bonneville GXP online with 33k miles for $7000. Car looks like it's in really good shape inside and out. I'm not going to buy this one specifically, but I'm in the market for a new car and I like the 01 SLE that I have right now. I really like this GXP, but from what I've read online ...

Re: Power steering pump might be bad?

Yeah it sounds like I have the same problem you did. Seems almost too easy to turn sometimes and then other times you have to put all of your force into it.

Power steering pump might be bad?

So I was hanging out with some friends last night and we got a little bored so I went to go do some cookies in an empty gravel lot. I had never attempted one before and I obviously messed up by keeping the wheel cranked to one side the whole time. Although I'm not 100% positive, and I'm not sure if ...

SES light keeps popping up no matter what

I drive an 01 Bonneville, and for a long time my service engine soon light has been on. It has been throwing the PO442 code a lot. I have already replaced the gas cap, and I took the car to a mechanic a few days ago. When he scanned the car, a PO440 code popped up and he replaced the vapor canister ...

What parts do I need to install an aftermarket stereo?

I want to put a new aftermarket stereo in my 01 Bonneville. I'm clueless as to what parts I'm going to need but I do know that you need a special adapter to keep your door chimes working and onstar working. What are all of the different parts I'm going to need to install a new radio and keep ...

Re: Cigarette lighter problems in 01 Bonneville

Do you know where I can find the black circle trim that goes around the cigarette lighter? I accidentally broke one of the two little black clips on the trim that helps hold the cigarette lighter in place and it's kind of loose.

Cigarette lighter problems in 01 Bonneville

Every time I put in a new fuse for my cigarette lighter, it blows up, so there has to be something else that's wrong. The cigarette lighter its self will get warm but the fuse blows every time. I want to start by replacing my cigarette lighter socket for my 01 Bonneville but I can't find one ...

01 Bonnevile engine shakes while accelerating

So just about a week ago I noticed that my car started shaking when I tried to accelerate. It doesn't happen every time but it will shake every once in a while. When the car starts shaking the RPM's don't go up and sometimes the SES light will flash for about 20 seconds or so and then stop. I feel ...
