Losing Dash Power When Turning – 08 Grand Prix
Hello, I have an 08 GP, base with about 83K miles… For a few months now I’ve been losing electrical power to my dash when turning. It started out just on my right hand turns, but now I notice it happening when I turn left as well as when I have to brake harder than usual

Power steering rack leak
Hey guys, I guess I need a new PS rack. It’s leaking, I took it to a local shop – they said it’s a small leak, so they put stop leak in. No good.

lots of issues!
My 2000 GP GT keeps stalling, but then after i limp home and shut it off for an hour, it runs fine again. I have codes p0442, p1860 and p0102, I do have a exhaust leak so i’m not sure if thats causing issues. I unplugged the MAF but it made no difference.

Car Starts Weakly, After Time Doesn’t Start at All
My car starts “weakly.” It is difficult to describe, but the symptoms seem fairly consistent. When I turn the key/start the car, I can hear the motor turning over quickly and very well. But it takes a second or two for the vehicle to catch on and start

98 GP GT Bad coolant leak
So I had to rescue my daughter stranded on the highway this morning. There was a massive coolant leak and she says the car was smoking before she stopped. I was able to get it off the highway to a nearby gas station where i could see, after the smoke cleared, that the drive belt was now off, not snapped but off and coolant pouring out of the bottom of the car.

Temperature in 2002 Grand Prix Rises to 230 F on Cruise
I just replaced both intake gaskets on my ’02 Grand Prix GT (3.8L, non-supercharged, 114,000 miles). In the process I also replaced both the thermostat and the temperature switch – not that they were bad, but I had easy access to them and wanted to take advantage of it. Now, however, running on cruise control at 55 mph when 60 degrees Fahrenheit outside, the Grand Prix will level off at about 220-230 degrees Fahrenheit

I replaced my oil pressure switch last Thursday and immediately after installing, I noticed a power steering whine that was not there beforehand.
