Replying to: blk97aurora (Nov 06, 2007 5:55 pm) The 4th post on this has a picture of a 1998 Aurora window sticker: http://aurorah.proboards47.com/index.cgi?board=Gen&action=display&thread=1136232- 511 It does not appear to mention any overhead storage, though this car also has a sunroof. Usually though the standard equipment is listed even if an option replaces it. What was the eBay link to the window sticker you saw? Bob |

Replying to: fnyrad (Nov 13, 2007 11:02 am) The fuel door works with a solenoid mounted just to the rear of the fuel door. If, while the engine is off, you can hear or feel a faint click when you press the release button, you have power to the solenoid. Some have recomended lubricating the release tab which can be done when the fuel door is open. I fiddled with mine, adjusting the angle of the latch and lessening the tension on the door. It rarely worked. Since there's nothing sadder than driving a $34,000 car and having to open the trunk anytime I wanted to fuel up, I figured the solenoid was just weak and replaced it with another used one from a junk yard for 5 bux. That was 3 yrs ago and it still works, even if I have to click it 3 or 4 times.

Replying to: dano853 (Nov 27, 2007 9:55 pm) The QQX RPO code for Autobahn option can be found on the Service Parts Identification (SPI) label. For '95s that label was affixed to one of the rear fender wells inside the trunk. For '97 to '99s it was glued to the bottom of the cover over the spare tire. I do not remember which location for '96s. You are correct that Autobahn is not identified in the VIN. There are at least two other ways to determine Autobahn vs. non-Autobahn. The tire lable on the rear side of the driver's door shows the speed rating -- V for Autobahn and S for non-Autobahn. If the tire label is missing or illegible and the car has the original size tires (235/60-16), find a flat stretch of highway where you can maintain a constant speed with the transaxle in fourth gear and the torque converter locked up. At 2000 RPM, Autobahn speed will be 62 MPH while non-Autobahn speed will be 66 MPH. This is not as easy to do as it may seem because of traffic and hills. Hope this helps. Les |

96 Aurora: First ECC controls quit working. Then over night I lost Instrument gauges, driver information center, remote functions, auto door LOCKS (both doors). Car runs and all lights work, radio, and cd player work. Have not found any bad related fuses.;
