I just had the upper manifold gasket replaced and the mechanic replaced the coolant with Dex-Cool. Isn't Dex-Cool recalled?

I replaced my y2k SSEi's transmission at 96k mile. My 96 SSE has 198k miles and is almost ready to give up the ghost. When it goes I'm gonna leave it on the side of the road and take the tags.

My oil pressure gauge is hitting 120 PSI. Should I be concerned?

Where's the best place to find parts for my SSEi?

The dealer wants $200 for the supercharger belt and pulley. And another $85 for the center cap to my chrome wheel. I'm so tired of being robbed by the dealer....

Any ideas

NGK TR55 V-power coppers from NAPA. Gap to .055"

Rear plugs on the 2k and newer? Get a blanket, drape it over the motor, and climb up on your belly.

My Y2K SSEi has just started vibrating but only during a low speed accelleration. When I speed up the vibration disappears. I'm wondering if this ...

Yesterday, the anti-lock brake light, traction light and brake light all turned on while driving. I tried to reset the traction light but no response. The message "Stabilization Indicator" displayed for a couple of minutes and then disappeared.

Any ideas?

I just ordered the molding for all four doors. But $385 is ridiculous. GM should've recalled these door moldings.

I'm considering buying a sheet of glossy vinyl that matches the car's color to cover the tail light on most of the trunk.

The possibilities are endless. I'm considering getting radical with the angle where it meets the lights at either end. Who's good with photoshop?

What do you think?

I need a white lens cap for the tail lights on trunk lid. I take a black one if I had to.

Any Ideas?

Has anyone replaced the door molding at the window on a 2000 SSEi?

Mine is in terrible shape and I just need the cost. I hope GM has re-engineered the surface. Is there an after market molding available?

I'm beginning to believe that if I replace the window molding, I may be able resolve a door leak before it starts.

Any ideas?

I'd love to pull the cupholder out of the SSEi's console because it's shape limits what it will hold.

Are there aftermarket replacements available?

Just started going thru the repair receipts of my latest purchase, a Y2K SSEi. The previous owner has just installed the FOURTH intermediate steering shaft. There must be another issue creating the failure of the steering shaft and the dealer overlooked it.

Any ideas?

Does anyone have experience with using fuel additives in the L67 engines (SSEi)?

I've always used Marvel Mystery Oil, however, I'm concerned about it's effects on the SC.

While reviewing the repair history, it shows that the intermediate steering shaft has been replaced 4 times. This indicates another problem but I can't put my finger on it.

I just got the car home. The spare tire well had about 1/2 inch of water.

Any idea which seal is defective?

I've got the next two weeks to have the car inspected. First stop is to drain orange Dex-Cool in the cooling system, then drain the transmission. I'm tempted to completely replace the rain deflectors on each window just as a precaution.

Do you know how labor intensive it is to replace the ...

I flushed the Dex-Cool in my 95 after the first couple of years, but I've always lost coolant. I replaced the water pump back in 2000 and the intake manifold in January 2008.

Now it needs a new AC and the mechanic advised against spending $2k to replace it. Do I need a specialist to replace the ...

Peter - I'm gonna hold you to that. I want this car, and you just eliminated the top 3 defects.
