Have fun with this oneMost of the sunfire clusters (odometer, RPM, Speed) are sealed and the odometer is digital like an alarm clock and can not be changed without replacement of the entire cluster (odometer, RPM, Speed) good luck... this will require the removal of the dashboard in most cases.

I'm not sure about newer Sunfires - but the information above is incorrect regarding older models. I replaced the bulbs on my instrument cluster without opening or compromising it on my 99 Sunfire.

You have to remove the dashboard, then remove the instrument cluster. On the back of the cluster, you'll find that you can unscrew the bulbs from the back and replace them.

How do you fix a fuel injector leak on a 97 Pontiac sunfire?

I've changed injectors on my '96, with help from my mechanic. I would assume that the procedure is similar for your car. It's a pretty direct job, but my best suggestion is to pick up a Haynes or Chilton manual. They are very good at showing and telling about injectors.


How does the seat in a 2005 Pontiac Sunfire fold down?

I assume you are referring to the rear seat. Open the trunk, look up toward the upper front of the trunk and you will see two black straps hanging down from below the rear window. Pull on them and it will releast the seat to fold down. There is a separate release for each side of the seat.

How long does it take to replace the water pump on a 2001 Pontiac sunfire?

1st time I did it it took me awhile. Probable about 5 hours. Most my time was spent accessing the water pump and cleaning off the old gasket. I assume someone with more experience and proper tooling could do it in a couple of hours. I had to remove the alternator and that mounting bracket that it sat on. Removed the mounting bracket because I had limited access to the gasket that was left on the engine from the water pump. I also didn't have the proper Serpitine Belt tensioner tool...so I had to run out and purchase one of those.


How to get 2003 Pontiac Montana drivers window to go up?

If you are having trouble with your window going back up to the up position, I assume that it has no trouble going down. The problem may be the motor in the door being to weak to push the window back up. You can replace this for about 55.00 good luck

How do you change fuel injectors on a 1995 Pontiac sunfire 2.3?

I've changed injectors on my '96, with help from my mechanic.I don't, however, have the 2.3 engine. I would assume that the procedure is similar. I've posted the entire procedure somewhere here, so you might want to look around a bit. My best suggestion is to pick up a Haynes or Chilton manual. They are very good at showing and telling about injectors. FriPilot


How do you check the transmission fluid on a 1998 Pontiac sunfire THAT HAS NO DIPSTICK?

GM never put a dipstick in the 1998 Pontiac Sunfire. They call it a sealed transmission. If you aren't noticing any leaking from the transmission under the car (pools of red fluid when you've been parked) then your fluid is probably not low. But in my opinion it is always good to change the transmission filter ever 10,000 miles or so. Your transmission pan does not have a drain plug so you will need to remove the pan, drop one corner slowly to help drain the fluid into a bucket, finish removal of the transmission pan, clean all the crud out of there such as dirt/metal flakes, replace the filter, replace the gasket (make sure you get all of the old gasket material off the pan before putting the new one on), then refill the transmission fluid back to the level stated in your owner manual. I believe its 7 quarts but always check your owners manual! I have to differ on the fact that some of the 1998 Sunfire 4 door sedans did have a traditional style tube and stick! These were in the 2200 or 2.2 model engines. I own one and and needed to replace the dip stick, I spent hours in junk yards and still never found the right one. So I assume they are not all that common. as such the prior contributor probably didn't know they existed. I myself was stunned when I saw that red dip stick ring sitting there on top the engine (Who whoulda thunk it?)
