Replying to: ccguy878 (Aug 19, 2006 12:34 pm) If you go GTO there are tons of mods for the LSx engines (since they are shared with the old F-bodys (LS1's) and Corvettes (LS1's/LS2's), not to mention SSR's, Trailblazer SS's, and Caddy CTS-V's (LS2). I doubt much new is coming from GM on the under-35k performance front until you see the new Camaro in early 2009. Challenger is coming from DC, and the LY's will replace the LX's soon. Other than the Shelby GT's, not much new coming on the Mustang front for the next couple of years either. Gas price trends notwithstanding, it's still a pretty good time to be a gearhead...

Replying to: roadrunner70 (Aug 19, 2006 4:09 pm) The probelm with the January 2006 through early May 2006 builds is in fact the Macpherson struts leaking (due to a supplier change on the strut oil). I think I saw your post on the "other site" and that your car falls outside this date range. It's still possible the strut is blown - need to find a _competent_ dealer and take it in. Where are you located? --Robert

Replying to: hammen2 (Aug 21, 2006 10:44 am) Is there any chance it might be the same strut problem Robert just described for the front wheel noise? |

| I have a 2004 4A black and black GTO. I was driving down the road last week and was being checked by one of those big sign radar devices that tells you your speed and to be safe. My speedometer read 2 miles higher than what was on the radar sign. I vaguely remember that there was a TSB on this issue. Does anyone out there have any information on this or know where I can get a listing of all the TSB's for free? I thought there was a complete listing somewhere out there on another site. Thanks for any info!!!!! | |

Replying to: 1badgto (Aug 22, 2006 2:50 am) if you want to see the real speed, put the dash into diag-mode when you start, and click to that tiny speed display. it reads about about 3% lower than the regular speedo display. to get into diag mode, hold down mode/select buttons as you turn the key to start the car. i reported the problem to my dealership as "speedo reads 3% fast". their response "it's within pontiac's spec, which is 5%".

inHD channel has a documentary about GTO-R "refueled" - it was on twice last night. probably it will be repeated early & often. in other news i am seriously considering blizzaks or other hydrophilic snow tires and daily-driving the goat all winter. also yesterday i was noticing how awesome some of the GTO switchgear is compared to normal GM for example. in particular, the highbeam lever is so easy/ergonomic compared to most other cars !
