#498 of 1891 '94 Astro growling/vibration by kpcoppa Nov 26, 2002 (7:21 am)
My '94 Astro with 135k miles has developed a nasty growling type vibration when started and in any gear except neutral. Sitting at a stop light you can really feel it. I took it to a reputable tranny shop (dealers terrify me), and he couldn't tell if it was in the tranny or in the engine, i.e. flywheel. In neutral it doesn't shake the car at all. Am considering running it until it becomes so bad it is more obvious but that could be a long time. Any similar episodes out there?

We have a 93 Safari with 181,000 on it, and in the past month it began to vibrate in the same manner. It is due to go in for service next week, so we'll see. There is still some vibration at a particular rpm, even in neutral, but it is much worse when in gear. Isn't as noticeable at higher speeds.
#501 of 1891 95 Astro Instrument Lights intermittent by mmariani Nov 29, 2002 (9:26 am)
Sometimes when I turn on the headlight switch the instrument panel lights do not come on. All the other dashboard lights come on (A/C,heater control, radio, rear A/C switch, etc.). I suppose there is a marginal electrical connection somewhere but I'm not sure where to look. The lights will sometimes either work right away, or will come on when I hit a bump on the road or release the parking brake. Can someone suggest a physical location to check? I don't like driving at night without knowing my speed and other engine info.
#502 of 1891 Wheelchair Access by randyolsen Nov 30, 2002 (10:21 pm)
Does the Astro/Safari have enough headroom in the interior for a passenger in a wheel chair. I would like to find a mini van that a wheelchair passenger could ride in without having to lower the floor. Along the same line, how difficult is it to remove the 2nd row captains seats and the third row seat?

#505 of 1891 98 Safari Climate Control Problems by mmack6 Dec 11, 2002 (3:10 pm)
Having the same problems as described by 67firebirdconv Post #496 - can you tell me exactly where the vacuum line routes to? I have located the broken section laying on top of the intake manifold, however have no clue as to the connecting points.   Thanks in advance.
