Replying to: des1203 (Jan 17, 2006 5:35 pm) You might want to have a look at your lockup torque converter. It could be that it's not unlocking when you slow down/stop, and the result is something not unlike stopping a standard shift car when it's in gear.

Replying to: kenlake (Mar 06, 2006 1:10 pm) I bought a Chiltons for my 1997 (covers 1997-2000 Lumina, Century, Gran Prix). I've found it a little less desirable than other chiltons because it doesn't always cover my 3.1 engine in the diagrams/instructions. What do you need to know?

Replying to: bbarg (Oct 24, 2005 4:11 pm) It took some effort but I got mine out. Just be careful with the washer tank, I broke the pump getting it out and it cost $28 for the motor (3 years ago).
#715 of 849 Post your odometer numbers here & repair costs! by sirius2 Mar 11, 2006 (4:54 pm)
I've got a 97 Lumina with $96K miles. I've spent over $5000 in maintenance the last five years on this beast! Consumer reports was right in every category of problem. Fuel pump $900, Rack & pinion $1000, AC leaks $750, Valve cover gaskets $700, Water Pump $500, tires, brakes, etc. Obviously some of this is normal maintenance, and I've had to pay the dealer to do some work. But I did the alternator, battery, and all oil changes myself.
#716 of 849 Temperature Gauge Goes Wild! by chimanbj Mar 14, 2006 (8:01 am)
I have a 96 Lumina that has had a series of things go wrong with it over the years, but it still runs fairly well. Recently, I was driving when I noticed that the temperature gauge was almost to the redline. I immediately turned a corner to go to a service station, and the gauge went from almost redline to a normal temperature within 5 seconds. I was freaked out, and was ready to dump the car, before common sense hit me. I've seen this happen in every drive since. In the cold weather, I have to drive for about 2 miles before this happens. In the warmer weather, it seems to start jumping around more often. I thought it was just a bad gauge, but now the heater seems to have stopped working, so I'm not sure what's going on. I have 106K miles and a lot of them recently are in urban stop-and-go traffic. Any thoughts?

Replying to: chimanbj (Mar 14, 2006 8:01 am) My 97 did the same thing until I put in a new water pump. Replies to this message: chimanbj (Mar 14, 2006 1:47 pm) sirius2 (Mar 21, 2006 9:26 am)

Replying to: chimanbj (Mar 14, 2006 1:47 pm) I had mine done by the dealer. The pump was cheap but there was some labor. I think it was about $200.
