When I start the car the driver's side window rolls all the way down. I then have to wait about 10 seconds to be able to roll the window all the way back up. Once I put it up, I can't put it down anymore. Thoughts? Switch or relay?

alright,that makes sense. Hopefully I'll be able to replace the sensor tomorrow.

third time the charm... moderator please delete my 2nd post. thanks

96 Bonneville SE [img]http://uploader.ws/upload/200711/codes_458_x_1387.jpg[/img I recently replaced the lower intake manifold gasket and also installed a whole new upper intake manifold. Ignore the code involving the coolant temp, it's current unconnected because I broke the sensor. I bought...

Got her running and purring like a kitten! Thanks for all your help. The only thing where I effed up was that I broke the coolant temp sensor. But that will be a quick and easy fix.

Quick question guys, do you guys have a picture of which cylinder is 1-6?

Is silicon grease the only thing you recommend for the o-rings on the coolant elbows?

wow Merkava, you have been a wealth of information. Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it.

I'm a little confused here. What is the problem, the lower intake manifold or upper? Thanks again.

Wow thanks for the links man, I really appreciate it. It doesn't really seem like a tough job at all.

Thanks!

The temp gauge was fine. But I don't know how accurate they are.

I don't know if this info is valuable at all but about 20 min before the head gasket went out the heat was not working. Could that point to a bad thermostat also?

As I was driving home from advanced auto parts today the head gasket blew out on my 96 Pontiac Bonneville. I'm 90% sure it was that due to the smoke out of the exhaust plus the smell right before it blew. I was at AA to get a code checked out, it was "multiple cylinder misfire" if I remember...

I'm not sure as my friend never told me too many details and I was never able to take a look. I am going to assume it was the torque converter though. His mechanic ended up finding a replacement transmission in a junkyard.

I see your points, but come on, everyone does some stupid stuff when they are young.

He paid for the car fully with his own money. He isn't a dangerous driver, no one can deny when they were young they did some stupid stuff in their car. But yeah I suspected he at least sevrely damaged his torque converter too. He told me he is going to hear from the mechanic tonight.

Heh, nah it really isn't me who did it. I can't get my liscense for another 2 and a half months

My friend has a late model Lincoln Continental, I think its around a 99 or so. Well the other night he did a neutral drop.(reving it high in N then dropping it into D) He called me today to tell me this and told me his transmission is damaged pretty badly. It leaks ATF, but only when its in...
