Re: sounds like a wheel bearing, but isn't?

i have a different GM vehicle that made terrible noise from the front end. i swore up and down it was a wheel bearing. it turned out to be my control bushings and gone bad and it caused the alignment to be thrown off. i replaced both wheel bearings and the noise persisted. i would check your control ...

Re: thinking about buying this 1999 SSE

Very nice and I think at a good price. Here in my part of the world, usually about $3999 Private Party is where any nice Bonneville with less than 100K miles will sell for. Too many down here like Pickups and Asian. Hope it serves you well. - BC

pickups are gas guzzlers and asian cars just plain ...

Re: thinking about buying this 1999 SSE

Nice find! you're gonna love it....I love my 99 SSEi .... best vehicle I have ever bought.

no one here has to convince me lol. the 96 SE has been a great car. i paid $1,400 for it 3 years ago and i will probably be able to flip it for $900 still. that's $500 to own a car 3 years. the 99 is ...

Re: thinking about buying this 1999 SSE

wiper linkage issue

so the delay failed on my wiper pulse unit. I replaced the motor with a used assembly from the JY. it worked fine for a little while after replacing the motor but then my wife went to drive the car the other day and the linkage fell off (the ball and socket end). i think it may have been slightly ...

Re: electronic climate control

is there a way to disconnect the air-mix regulator and just make it so it's hot all of the time, regulating heat output simply by controlling fan speed. i really need heat and at present i really dont want to be messing around with this air-mix regulator. i really wish this car did not have this ...

electronic climate control

im considering getting my wife a different 3800 powered car, one without electronic climate control. the climate control does not act properly and i personally do not think its the "airmix" actuator. the problem exists when you first start the car the display starts flashing. wait until the display ...

Re: wipers wont shut off 1996 bonneville

i assumed they were cables that drive the window. i guess im wrong. i had a 97 grand prix GTP and the power window had an issue. it was cable driven and i assume they were the same. when you push the switch you can hear the motor hum as if its is trying to run but the windows doesnt move.

Re: took the car in for a diagnosis

a vacuum leak would explain why my check engine light is on. i thought it was a loose connection at the purge selinod but i pushed that vacuum line back on. its not the alternator, its been replaced not only that but the noise exists with the serpentine belt removed, completely removing the ...

Re: took the car in for a diagnosis

honestly this car has been running literally thousands of miles with this noise. at first i assumed it was just a water pump, so i had one of these " i will change it when i get to it moments". now im running the car because i refuse to drive my nicer cars in the nasty, slop hole that im living in ...
