i have the same problem my friend told me to check the color of the Preston an also check the radiator it's probably that the problem case the transmission oil need to be filtred inside an get colder
80,000 ---100,000
no.... Pontiac changed to a new transmission in 2000
The battery on a 2005 Pontiac Montana is changed by raising the hood, loosening both of the battery cables, and lifting them off the posts. The old battery can then be lifted out, a new battery put in, and the cables reattached.
Your owner's manual will probably tell you never. IMO, I would have the transmission fluid changed at 75,000 miles. Of course this will have to be done at the dealer as the transmission is sealed.
If it's same as the 1993 (I believe it is) , there is NO filter. But the transmission oil drain bolt is magnetic and will have a good amount of metal shavings stuck to it. So when the transmission oil is changed, be sure to clean off the bolt.
If the 1999 Pontiac Montana glove box will not open with the key, there is probably something stuck in the latch, preventing it from opening. There is also a possibility that the lock was changed by a previous owner if the vehicle was purchased used.
as far as i know you cant check the transmission fluid on a 2000 Pontiac sunfire. It uses dexcool automatic transmission fluid and very rarley needs to be changed, i have a manual shift and it never has to be changed. Actually the only way that you can change it is by having it flushed the same way you flush a radiator, it has to be sucked out by a machine.
Does not have a belt, timing chain only, no maintenance required. Just keep your oil changed regularly.
I'm no mechanic but a well known transmission told me that if a vehicle had 80,000 miles on it, the fluid shouldn't be changed and he said that was because if you did it could stir up shavings and actually cause the transmission to go bad but use this info at your on digression.
my 99 transport dash fuses are in the glove compartment right in the back. i hope they never changed there position since then and i hope it helps you!!
every 25,000 miles or every five oil changes which ever comes first.
I'm not sure of the years....same as the Lumina I'd imagine. But the Pontiac was called a Trans Sport and was later changed to Montana. The Olds Silhouette was the other name you're looking for.
