Where do you add freon on a 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix?
I have a '92 model that has the ports just under and behind the air filter box. Look for the one with a BLUE plastic cap. leave the RED one alone.
The power window motor/regulater on these cars are a cable based system .....when the window is slow to go up or down it means the cables are Rusting out and need replacing......OR if not rusty try oiling the cables on back of slider......NOTE:(( you can buy from the dealer or get an aftermarket at about half the price)).....this isn't all that hard to do ....First remove the inside door skin ....this is done by first removeing the screws behind the inside door handle ,,then use a flat screw driver to GENTLY pop the skin off ...working aroud the edge of the door. ...next reach in and unplug the power window and lock plugs and remove the skin......once this is done there are four screws that keep the motor in place 2 on bottom and 2 on top...you may have to move window down a bit to see top 2 screws ....NOTE use a shim to keep window from falling down when you remove screws...don;t want to let that window drop....once the screws are out you can remove the old assembly by manuevering it out thru the holes in door.....the window will have no support at this stage....REMEMBER to shim window ......replace with new assembly and do everything in reverse order... good luck .....takes about an hour
What would cause aGroaning noise when turning at low speeds in a grand prix?
Check the level of the power steering fluid. A low level or no level of fluid will cause the groaning noise.
Probably the waterpump.
Make sure the antifreeze is actually coming from the lower part of the engine. If so, I would agree it's the water pump. Pontiacs also use a rubber grommet seal located at the upper driver side of the engine. It is where the timing cover and manifold mate. This is a common cause of water leaks in a Pontiac. The seal gets brittle with age and needs to be replaced.
Where is the temperature sending unit on a 2002 Pontiac grandprix?
Hi, I recently replaced the coolant temperature sensor and thermostat on my '01 GTP. Are you referring to the temp. sensor? If so it's directly below the thermostat on the top of the motor obviously towards the driver's side. take the plastic cover off of the top of the motor and follow the upper raditor house down to the neck on the top of the intake manifold. directly below that is the sensor screwed into the manifold right below the neck (where the thermostat is).
Why won't air come out of the vents in the car on a 1997 Pontiac grand prix?
Check vacuum hoses and diaphrams under dash and at firewall
Where is the switch location for changing from high beams to low beams on a 1989 Pontiac Grand Prix?
It should either be on the dash board where you can turn your interior lights on or you should pull back on the directional to switch. Cars run with the low beams on and the high beams are switched to in the dark when you feel you need extra light. I feel bad for the people that have been coming in the other direction from this car if its high beams have been on constantly.
How far is the Belgian Grand Prix circuit from the center of Brussels?
The circuit is about 75 miles east-southeast of Brussels. I went to Spa in 2007 and took the train from Brussels to Mastricht, Netherlands- about 30 miles north of the circuit. From Maastricht, I commuted each day by train or rental car. I recommend the train plus taxi from Spa.
Will the check engine light come on when the water pump is bad on 2004 grand prix?
Not until the coolant temperature rises to a very high level or even boils over. When the water pump goes bad it usually (but not always!) starts making squeeling or rumbling noises. Next they will start leaking and THAT is what causes engine damage when the coolant drains out. If the old pump isn't leaking, making noise, or wobbling there is nothing wrong with it.
The check engine light (service engine soon) comes on and stays on when a problem is detected by the self diagnosis system of your vehicle. Generally, the problem is in the emissions or something that is affecting the effectiveness of the emissions, but other causes can trigger the light to come on, too. To determine the cause, the vehicle will need to be taken to a parts store or a shop that has an OBD2 scanner, or for 1995 and earlier models, an OBD1 scanner, While a scanner will not give you the magic answer, it will give you a code that narrows down the problem area.
Why does my 2000 Grand Prix make a grinding noise when I turn the wheel?
Get it checked out for a wheel hub bearing. That's what was wrong with mine, but caught it ahead of time
Why is the ABS light lit on a 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix?
You need to replace the WHEEL HUB ASSEMBLY (front right and left). You may just need one or the other. I went to Auto Zone and bought one unit then plugged it into each wheel to determine which one was bad. This saved a $50 diagnostic charge.
Total cost of repair by local mechanic was $250.
You have water leaking on the passenger side floor on your 1998 gmc c1500?
when your heater core is shot it will leak on the passenger side of vehicle and your windshield will fog up most of the time
How much does it cost to have a transmission installed in a 1995 Grand Prix?
It varies with what area of the country you live in. Call a couple of local garages for estimates.
I had mine done in x-mas of 2004 it cost $1800 OUCH dollars. I live in central Nebraska. I got a 1 year warranty with it. It is a 1996 auto trans with overdrive. I feel I could have done it cheaper if I had bought one on eBay NEW with warranty and just paid to get it installed. but I heard about shipping problems and core problems so I went local just in case some thing went wrong which it did twice. First the car cameout not driving straight. they had to adjust the engine cradle to put it back where it was or they have to get a front end alignment and guess who would pay for that? . second I lost drive some six months later. the original problem was I lost my overdrive. so back to the shop it went under warrenty. I have been going good since. KNOCK ON WOOD! If you are in large city I would think you should be able to get it done for $800-1500 to rebuild yours with converter Installed. Hope you have better luck than I did. $1800 on a $1200 quote still hurts and they never kissed me.

How do you remove the stereo on a 1991 Celica GT?
i have just bought a 90 celica gts with the 10 speaker and an amp stereo. i had to rewire all the speakers to the deck and there is no wiring harnwess so you have to wire it manually
AnswerI was replacing the stereo in my 91 Celica GTS, and I bought a direct ISO loom of eBay for a fiver! Saves chopping the wires man! Failing that, goto your local radio store and ask them for the Wiring Loom or ISO Loom for the car.Hope its not too late!Good luck

How do you use the start in second botton on your 94 Pontiac grand prix?
press button push down on gas peddle!
First of all, I just hope you upgraded the intake the exhaust and the transmission because if not than say ADIOS to your engine and trany especialy. But anyway you can find out by how much boost your putting out ether you purchase a little computer and software for it and hook it up to your lap top(that is if you know as what you are doing) or go the easy way and put the car on the dyno and that will tell you absolutely everything about your car and the specs. You do not need to upgrade the transmission if you only swapped to a 3.4, which would be the first recommended lower size supercharger pulley. But you do need to at the very least have some exhaust mods (especially a U-bend delete), a CAI, and it helps to run a colder t-stat, and a more dialed in PCM, such as a DHP. To determine your boost you can hook up a powertuner (generally around $400) or have it dyno'd. You will get approximately 10 HP per .1 drop in pulley diameter and yes if you dont have supporting mods you will damage your engine if you go too far. Check out the following webiste for a thorough discussion on pulley size and suporting mods. http://www.clubgp.com/newforum/tm.asp?m=2867792&p=1&tmode=1&smode=1 Hope this helps. "G"
