I had the same problem with my 04 Impala. I replaced a small electric motor that controls the cold/hot air on the outside of the plastic ductwork under the dash on the drivers side.

Funny, Our 2k LS has 45k miles on it and I just sprayed our ISS 2 days ago, usually once a year. never any need to replace it, that is the biggest scam going. My friend is a mechanic for a poolice dept that has that issue and he never replaced one ISS, one squirt and good to go. Glad to help.

Even funnier...I sold my 2k Impala almost 2 years ago, but I still regularly spray pbblaster on the ISS...of my next door neighbor's '04 Impala LS!!! My new neighbor on the other side of our house also has what looks like an '03, how long before he learns my secret and I end up maintaining his too!!

I'd have to dig around a little more, but I'm pretty sure the Impala has a timing chain instead of a belt...I don't recall any maintenance guideline about replacing a belt at some certain mileage point. I drove mine for 114k miles before I sold it (3.8l engine) and never replaced a timing belt; I did have the serpentine belt replaced that runs all the accessories (i.e. the "fan belt") just as a precaution at maybe 70-80k miles, but that's it.

2004 Malibu over heating?

During warm up, my Malibu will not heat. I will increase idle speed and at times, will get too much heat. When this happens the temp gauge is in normal range. Other times I will get no heat at idle and after driving < 1 mile the temp gauge will go into the red range and drop back down to normal. At other times in the red range, the car will power down to minimize damage and then return to normal. The water pump and thermostat is new. The intake gaskets have been replaced as well. I am taking a beating on repair costs and am still experiencing problems. There is no smell of fluid therefore, I assume heater core is fine. Has anyone experienced similar issues and found a solution?
