you're making me a little nervous about my purchase. it has a lot of miles on it, but a 6 cylinder will go 150-250 thou. miles. and we are getting it for a crazy good price. nothing shady about it...the company just gave them another one....so, they are selling it.
you don't like yours though, eh? tell me more, so i can keep a watchful eye on things... 4400 sounds like alot for 3 months worth of car. we aren't even paying that much for the vehicle. it was worth it, right?!?!??!?!
i'll be checkin' on if i can.
see ya

If you take the Head Gasket problem out of the equation, the van is great. I can even handle the windshield wiper problem (things are suppose to break down, correct?). I just drove 1400 km this weekend with it, ran great. 800 km on a tank of gas.
The things that have gone wrong with it are:
- Head gasket (with a cracked head)
- front wheel bearings
- driver's windshield wiper over extending
- air bag light always on
- blower fan resistor
- plus routine maintenance stuff
Good stuff with it:
- large & comfortable
- good body
- reasonable economy
- good handling
- so far good in the other major issues.
Let me know what you have found out about the wiper if you can. Right now I am using "Rain Dance" on the windshield to limit the wiper use (works great)
Thanks,

Thanks for any info! Rydel
As for the windshield wipers, I will have them checked out when we take it in for the float/fuel gage. I'll let you know. As for now, we have 3 cars, so no pressure getting things done. Anyone want an old buick? it works fine. ;-)
so, keep checking, and so will I.
seeeeee ya

the other thing that it gots on that venture is the fuel gauge it goes crazy. and the ligths at the back they all turn on when you hit the brakes.. what could it be done to fix that. thanks for your help.
Thanks.
Thanx,

To make an already long story shorter, I bought a new automotive VCR from Crutchfield, Clarion model VDH910. It works fine. I doubt Crutchfield still carries it.
If I were to replace it today, I would probably install a DVD player and then snake and hide new wiring to the AUX jacks by the monitor.
I'm not an expert on this subject, but let me know if you need any more info.

With my van if the voltage is below 12.5v she will not start. seems the starter is drawing alot of juice - time to replace it lol. hopes this helps! :mad:
when I checked the drain from my fuse box it seemed to be coming from the radio fuse. My radio works just fine, but I understand there is the security system that runs through the radio, I do not know if the is the problem or what!. The security system seems to be working fine also. someone told me onetime that it could be the computer board in the van, and that would be very expensive to replace. He said that sometimes the computer system will short out and that could be my problem. Well thanks for the info. on the neg. battery cable. I will try and give that a try.
The reservoir is located in a very awkward place.
Thanks
The brake fluid dropped in our 2001 Olds Silo because of leaking rear brake cylinders. This also caused a groaning type of sound when braking due to fluid on the rear drums. The cylinders were replaced under warranty.
Thanks
