Maybe passenger side sensor? Just a guess but try everything else before considering replacing the heater box. I think they started the assembly line with the heater box and built the car around it.

You don’t have to replace the harness but best bet is to splice in a load resistor and mount it away from anything that will melt. Most places that sell the LED bulbs will offer the resisters.

Maybe a late 08 model but I can’t confirm that. Could be a modern radio replacement in it. The stock radio does not have car play so no apps. Just wireless phone connection.

Yes it can be done

I think it was about 160000 when I changed the plugs in mine. No issues. Really not hard to do takes about 20 min and a star driver, along with the plug socket.

Do a learn on the top.

Just take the two little star screws out of the hinges and you can lift the trunk to replace the struts without compressing them.

You can get K&N filters to fit the V but they can cause problems with the MAS getting contaminated by the oil.

AC tensioner is about $500 for part alone. Install isn’t too hard so hour or two. Dealer charges about $1800+ to replace fuel pump to fix the fuel gauge.

Vapor Canister Purge Solenoid - GM (12581282) about $27

It’s a purge valve for the fuel system. They tend to go bad if you drive on dirt roads. The valve is about 4” square black and is mounted on the inside frame rail in front of the transmission, behind the fuel tank, above the exhaust pipes. You probably have to loosed up the exhaust mounts to be...

What mickeytee said is correct. This is easily tested with a tech2. I’m thinking a minor leak in head gasket could do this. Simple compression test will tell.

System automatically turns the audio volume up then top is lowered to compensate for the wind noise.

Assuming you are talking about the cruise control, seems to me the CD player is the driver in some way for that. I have an 07 V so replacing the radio had no effect on the cruise control. Based on this, I might guess that the Gap button on the steering wheel is routed Thur the CD player? Seems...

So did something in the top short out the amp or just fate that both failed about the same time?

eBay. I have seen them for about $20 for set of 4. Look really good. I have black ones on my chrome V rims that look good on my black car. Seen them in silver also. 67mm are best fit.

How about the backup lights. 12volts and come on when in reverse. Wire is close by to where you will be mounting camera.

Finding parts for the V are getting just about impossible. If you are going to spend the loot, I would recommend an LSA.
