Replying to: jman33163 (Dec 02, 2007 5:54 pm) Unfortunately this transmission is not one of GM's best. It seems like it is hit or miss. I consider myself very lucky as i have 151k on my 2000 Intrigue and so far no issue with the tranny. Other items, yes but not the transmission.

Replying to: dtownfb (Dec 03, 2007 10:20 am) yeah, i have been reading of all kinds of issues with this tranny while researching this problem. still though, hard to argue with more than 200,000 miles (i believe it is around 227,000).   i called and told him the bad news but, he hasn't decided what he is going to do with it. he may run it till it blows the tranny up or may fix it. he was dissapointed it wasn't going to be an easy fix though   thanks again for the link!   jman Replies to this message: dtownfb (Dec 08, 2007 7:51 pm)

Replying to: jman33163 (Dec 03, 2007 4:32 pm) 227,000 miles is nothing to sneeze at. That is the most miles I have heard from an Intrigue with original equipment.

Replying to: bold_1 (Nov 28, 2007 8:14 pm) I wouldn't put in anthing in, but Dex- Cool because it may damage parts in the long run. I have two GM's One Intrigue and one Rendvous and have always put dex-cool in them and have had no probelms. I also have chrysler and will only put Mopar coolent in it.

#77 of 109 LOUD Noise in my Console (mid-chassis) by marykins Dec 20, 2007 (11:09 pm)
I own a 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue 6 cyl. 3800 which I absolutely love. I am wondering if any other Intrigue owners out have experienced a LOUD - high pitched squealing sound in, around or under the center console? It lasts only about 30 seconds upon start up. This noise is horrific, almost SCREACHING at me, then stops as suddenly as it starts. It does not seem to have any disabling effects, but is VERY unnerving!! I am so worried that something MAJOR is about to go out and leave me stranded.   Any CLUES?

Replying to: marykins (Dec 20, 2007 11:09 pm) Yes, my 2002 GL with the 3.5 does the same thing. I've been too lazy to et mine fixed. If you search this site you will find several other reports. Searching for "whinning" results in some hits. Here is one I found.   Engine Whine by mfd37 I've got a 2002 Intrigue and had a whine that lasted for about 30-45 seconds when the car was started cold and then it was never consistant enough to pinpoint. I took it to the dealer and they immediately identified it as a "second stage air intake motor". Seems the motor was binding and causing the whine. It was replaced under warranty and hasn't been a problem since.

Replying to: marykins (Dec 20, 2007 11:09 pm) markb432 has got it right. This motor is only necessary at startup for emissions purposes. It shouldn't affect driving but you could fail the emissions portion of the annual inspection. Common problem with the Intrigues.   Is the Service engine soon light on in your Intrigue?
