Re: How reliable is SonicElectronix.Com??

I have bought off them before, they are pretty good and have good products, however, if you do have any issues with warranty they are horrible and want to make it as difficult as possible for you.

What mufflers are you looking to put onto the car? This is where the noticable difference in HP and sound comes into play.

Re: Transmission shudders at 50mph

I was unaware of that, thank you repinS. Do you believe the TCC Solenoid TSB might be worth looking into a little bit more for his issue?

Alternator rebuild just in the nick of time

I have been driving my 00 SSEI now for about 3 1/2 to 4 months as my everyday driver and to my surprise, I pulled the back seat and seen an original AC Delco battery manufactured date was 11/99. I knew that with the traditional winter cold weather I see here in Ohio that I better get it changed ...

Re: Error code C1248 & C1262 + 2000 Bonneville SLE

I would shop ebay for it. I am buying mine from ebay because the one for the 00 SSEI new from GM is $885 in my wonderful part of Ohio. As far as the difficulty on finding one, as long as you have the correct brake options for the car you should be fine. From my understanding after talking to some ...
