Hey guys, Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans. Been a while since I posted! I still have my '05 GXP and she's sick. :(

Had some symptoms of air in the cooling system - getting hot at idle/stopped, getting on the gas and temp falls to normal again. Heater blows cool/cold when temp is getting ...

I have the typical "radio not turning off when door is opened" issue starting to become a regular thing. It started intermittent and has quickly gotten worse. I'm about at a 50/50 chance right now that it shuts off when I open the door. I'm looking to fix it up myself if at all possible.

The ...

I know this thread is a dinosaur, but my car sounds exactly the same, maybe a little quieter. Always hard to tell with cam mic's of course.

I had a complete coolant system flush and fill with the GM stop leak tablets put in and it stopped.
Probably not a bad idea. More than likely the system's never been flushed yet anyways. I just got the car last September, and I know I haven't done it since then. I'm guessing the PO didn't do it ...

When the car is cold it is on the cold full line. My old '01 SE would do the same - take a bit after getting warm before start filling the reservoir on cold winter days. When I checked it, it hadn't completely reached operating temp.

From what I'm finding I'm not going to worry about it till the ...

A few weeks ago I got a low coolant level message on my DIC.

I checked the coolant level shortly after getting the message. The car was warm, just about got up to running temp. The pressurized reservoir was to the full cold line.

The message was only on for a few minutes and went off on it's own ...

Congrats.

Yeah, apartments, and the garages they do have are stupid expensive for what you get...

[-( Where's the K5? :twisted:
In it's own pile of snow with a dead battery. Keeps killing batteries - parasitic drain. :sad5:

Not jealous at all. lies...

Very nice.

Juan got his own car? About time... :D

I traded in a 2001 SE for a 2005 GXP.

I believe the GXP to be an awesome highway car, IMHO. The only problem is it's somewhat thirsty. I haven't taken it on a very long road trip yet, but feel the comfort is just as good as my 2001 was.

I'd say go for it, unless the extra gas money will be a ...

Welcome aboard! Good to see someone who still builds them in the USA. Keep up the good work.

The fog lights and heated seats are common problems. Someone here should be able to help you fix up your issues!

Welcome to the club. Your English seems good enough to me!

lol

Welcome aboard!!!

Yeah, have been already. Seen some on eBay. I will have to measure how long I will need first though!

Very cool. Can't wait for more pix (installed)!
