I am new to this board. I have a Buick Century 94 with 41000 original miles. This morning suddenly the front windows do not want to open. Thought may be because it is cold, had the heater on for a while still nothing.
The back ones do open, but one is very slow.
Can someone explain what is going on.
Hope I do not need a trip to the shop. Just spend my Christas money there over the weekend getting the brakes fixed.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
Also, I had an air conditioner compressor pulley go bad and it sounded like a very loud scraping with the A/C off and would go away when I turned on the A/C.
Just Guessing but I hope it helps.
I purchased it, and didnt even know it had a tick which would occur after the car was running for a minute... and it never goes away. It is harder to hear at higher RPM's (over 2,000) but it's still there.
I notice a lot of people have problems with engine tick at cold startup, but I have not seen any people post about engine tick AFTER a cold startup
What is wrong? Is it bad? Easy to fix? Expensive? Will my motor last? What should I do?
Thanks!
I purchased this car for winter use because I wanted to store my 1999 Grand Prix GTP 3.8L Supercharged V6

For the time being I've wired a switch to the primary fan but I really don't like rigging things. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
lpen.
The blue book value on my car is @ $2,300.00.
Trade in value is $500.00 which was an offer from one car dealership.
I don't know if I want to have the engine rebuilt, replaced with a new or used engine or just trade it in for whatever I can get for it.
Any suggestions?
Any ideas what I can do or look for. I do appreciate any help I can get.
anyone know the solution to this problem?
Can I get info on the web or so? I know it's a lot of ??? but i hate to go to the shop if I can do it myself even if it takes me hours. Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
I was attempting to install a new tailight lens on my car, and afterward discovered that for some reason the lights on the rear passenger side were brighter than the lights on the rear drivers side.
So I went back to Advanced auto parts and they told me they didn't know, so I grabbed some fuses and a new flasher. I traded out the appropriate fuses, changed the flasher, and the lights now work, but for some reason its as if they are always on as bright as they can possibly go, and when I turn my right signal on, the entire car flashes, all lights front and back, my radio lights and some of my dash lights!
Keep in mind this may have been an existing problem before I changed the lens as this is a new car to me, and had been sitting previously for around 6 months. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!! :confuse:
P.S. My neighbor seems to think maybe a ground came loose somewheres and is screwing with everything, I'm hoping thats all it is
The dealer shop and every service technician i have spoken with about it since, says this is nothing to worry about.
Just a nuisance!
Also, brakes have always squeaked a little in humid conditions.
I also have that problem and had it checked by a transmission expert. He said it's a common problem with the
2000-2002 buick century's and other gm cars that use the same transmission. The only real fix is to remove and replace the transmission with an upgraded unit. The cost is 2500.00 but comes with a 100,000 warrenty. I know it's a big cost but 2500 is cheaper than 20,000 for a new car
my Buick is a 2000 with 46000 miles.
One day, a few months ago, there was a puff of smoke coming from the steering column. Immediately, my left turn signal was gone. For a time, I managed to tweak the exposed wire, and the signal would work. (This only happened after the car had warmed up.) Now this does not work, and few people know what a hand signal looks like! As I truly believe in signalling, I have got to get this fixed. Inspection is next month, Is this a minor electrial problem? My other signal works fine.
Thank you in advance for any helpful advice! I just pray this is not a major fix, as our car has cost us plenty, especially since she was paid off.
When it worked, it blinked. It now now longer works.
It seems to not be making contact. I hope it is the rewiring.
