Adjusted price to see if we can't stir some interest. $13k OBO.

Done!

1624 :) Let me know if you'd like a scan of the Monroney sticker, happy to facilitate.

Car has been sold.

Yeah that's going to cost thousands upon thousands. No way in hell is that worth doing vs just taking a hit on the sale value for damage that isn't in plain view. Oh well, can't win 'em all.

Oog. That doesn't bode well, then. Probably not worth the effort I guess, I'm just trying to get it ready for sale and the damage is mostly out of sight anyway (underside of the fender, behind the passenger front wheel) so maybe it won't affect the trade-in or sale price too horribly...

I've potentially located a part that I'd like to purchase but cannot personally inspect and compare to my car. A friend is willing to go check it out but I'd like to make sure that it's the correct paint code because silver or grey is notoriously hard to photograph and display accurately. GM...

I think I decided to just do it by hand, didn't have any issues to speak of. Coming from different banks seems odd to me though, I agree.

I can't say for sure but I'd say the coil pack is worth a look. Not ridiculously expensive and took about 10 minutes total to install. You can unplug the coil for cylinder #6 before you order and if you don't see any change, it's pretty strong evidence that it's an ignition issue. Keep in mind...

Update: Installing the coil pack fixed it! It was indeed the passenger side bank. I tested by unplugging the coil for the #7 cylinder and saw no change, so swapped the pack and my #7 cylinder lives again!

Hey all, this morning my '05 with 51,000 miles decided to act up and start shaking a bit when I left my house. Thought it was a bit weird, but no CEL so decided to go a mile or two and see what happens. Once I gave it a decent bit of throttle to overtake, the check engine light blinked at me...

What colour body and interior? Might be interested in floor mats, driver side seat control bezel if they're shale. If it's a satin nickel (I think… would have to double check since I mix up with platinum all the time) exterior by any chance, I'd also be keen on the passenger side mirror...

Great, just what I was hoping to find. So I'll replace the lost #1 and if it turns up later it can be #3.

I lost my primary keychain and am going to have that fob deauthorized in case someone in my neighbourhood found it and decided to keep it. In the event that it turns up later, can I re-add it, or does it become a paperweight? Not too concerned either way, just curious. Also, if I...

Sounds similar! How much did it come out to if you don't mind my asking?
