Where is the oil pressure sensor located at on an 2006 Chevy Impala?

Couldn't get an answer for my 2005, but I did find and replaced the sensor myself. It was next to the oil filter. The only reasonable way to get to it was removing the passenger side front wheel. It was fairly easy after that. I think the guys who have been changing my oil were getting the sensor wet with oil and it started having problems. I have the 3.8 liter V6, but I think the 3.4 would be the same. A good place to start at any rate, would be near the oil filter.

Can a 3.8 Chevy engine fit in a 3.4 2005 impala?

Not without a TON of modification. The 3.8 is a 90 degree V6 while the 3.4 is a 60 degree. Not to mention the computer and wiring won't be correct either. By the time you are done with the modification you don't even gain that much.......the 3.8 is quite a bit heavier than the 3.4.

How can you fit 24 inch rims on a 2003 impala?

There are a few ways you can go about it...Since the skinnys are out now(very thin tires) you can get a set of those that's honestly the best way to go without messing anything up plus if you have a car payment on the car doin any modifications can void out a warranty...but if you really want to do it you can go with lift cups and air shocks...like i said you have to do your research and what not....check this site out you will find everything you need.... eastcoastryders/kingofthestreets.com

Hoodrich24 you can also ask me some questions on my yahoo jmeads53@yahoo.com

You can try going to http://universalcarlifts.com/ and check out some lift kits and they should have one for your car but yo should still get skinny because your wheels wouldn't look right with 30 or 35 series tires. but you do have to be careful not to break your rims because skinnys don't give your rims better protection than 30 or 35 series tires so be very careful for potholes, railroad track, and speed bumps on highways. but you can go to http://custom-wheels-car-rims.phatkars.com/ if you are trying to find some nice looking 24's. well that's all i can give you

Can wheels with the 5114 bolt pattern be used on 2004 impala?

Some old-timers will say you can, but you really cannot. There are a couple of reasons. First, 114.3mm is not the same as 115mm. Even if the center bore on the 5-114.3 wheel is the same or larger than the hub on the car and you can get the wheel on the studs with a flush mount, the small 0.7mm difference is enough to unduly stress the studs, This strain is enough to eventually crack and break them and potentially cause a wheel-off and possibly an accident. Second, even though you can get the wheel on the car, you will never be able to really center the wheel on the hub--as soon as you tighten one lug, it will pull the wheel out of centricity with the hub; you will never get it centered, so you will always have a vibration.

What problem do you have when your security light comes on in your 2002 Chevy impala?

The Impala, as well as other GM models, have a passive theft deterrent called 'Passlock' which will prevent your car from starting if there was an attempted theft or other unauthorized entry into the ignition. However, this same system is prone to randomly and sometimes frequently engage itself even when the car is being used properly.

Solutions: 1) If the car will not start or "crank", turn you key in the ignition to the 'on' position and leave it there for a minimum 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, turn the key to the 'off' position for two minutes. Now attempt to start the car. This is a built-in feature of the Passlock system to override the security lock. 2) If this does not work, you may need to have the car taken to a dealer (a regular mechanic will not be able to guarantee a fix). They will check for a diagnostic code, and if one is present which relates to this system, they will advise that you replace the BCM (Body Control Module), ignition cylinder, and the ignition switch. This will be around $800 depending upon your dealer and where you are located. Unfortunately, unless you systematically isolate each component, you may not know which part is actually causing the problem. However, the most likely culprit is a faulty ignition cylinder or a bad BCM. The BCM's are known to be "buggy".

GM is well aware of this problem, but they will not issue a recall.

Hope this helps a little.

How do you change a wiper blade?

1. Buy the correct-fit replacements. Correct replacement windshield wiper blades are not only correct length, but also correct attachment. Never just buy by length only. Always lookup your vehicle in an application guide at the store or now-a-days you can 'lookup wiper size' online. The key to an easy install is correct size/correct part numbers.

2. The new replacement wipers will have step-by-step, illustrated instructions. Take your new wiper blades and instructions out to your vehicle and physically get the old and new wipers in your hands and take a look. The instructions will make 100% sense once you're looking and touching them.

3. Most wiper replacements do not require tools and take approximately 2-15 minutes.

There are 22 different wiper arm attachments - see related links below for wiper blade installation videos for the 13 most common wiper arm attachments - front and rear.
