I was unable to find the right torque rod after looking online regularly for several weeks.
Solved : Went to the junk yard last weekend and found that part on the only Bonneville they had in that yard.
That donor car was only there for roughly 9 days, and already the left torque rod was already ...

Re: Looking for right torque rod for trunk lid on '99 Bonnev

Re: Looking for right torque rod for trunk lid on '99 Bonnev
Thanks for the offer, harofreak00. I'll look around for a local pick-a-part. If I can't find one, then maybe I'll take you up on that.

Looking for right torque rod for trunk lid on '99 Bonneville
Can anyone help me find a right torque rod for the trunk lid on my '99 Bonneville?
It snapped last week, and I can't find a replacement anywhere online.
The part# is 25677962.
I had already replaced the left one after it broke last year. There must have been a bad batch of these parts for the '99 ...

Re: LIM gasket replacement on an '02 Buick Park Avenue Ultr
Update: Everything is back together, and the engine started right up and runs fine. I don't see any leaks anywhere, even the rear passenger side area that was wet the other day. So all of the work appears to be a success!

Sorry, I don't know how to post photos yet...and I took a couple but you can't really see the wet areas in the photos because they're under other parts. I can email them to anyone who would care to see them.

Thanks for the info about moving the fuel rail out of the way.
I may decide to do the work tomorrow, before the holiday.

LIM gasket replacement on an '02 Buick Park Avenue Ultra
Hi Guys,
The time has come to replace the UIM gaskets on my '02 Park Ave Ultra. It has roughly 115,000 miles, and the engine runs fine, but I looked under the hood today and I saw wet gooey residue in multiple areas on the top of the engine - for example, around some of the fuel injectors.

Re: hard shifting after downshifting on the freeway
This post is belated, but if anyone's interested, I bought the TransGo shift kit and installed it several months ago. While I had the accumulator apart, I also lightly scuffed the cylinder walls as recommended on another car site. I also replaced the filter and fluid at that time. The work took ...

Re: quick help needed
Sounds like it could also be a bad coil pack. In my experience, the only symptom when one fails is that the engine will bog down/stumble under load.

Re: Cooling fans not turning on
My '93 had a similar problem, but I had a scan tool and used that to discover that the problem on mine wasn't the temperature sensor. The problem on mine was the low speed fan relay.

Re: Car won't start "unknown driver" message
If the symptom was simply the 'click', then it sounds like the starter.
But because of the other symptoms that you've described, I agree with RJolly87, it sounds like the battery connections (loose connections or corrosion on the cable ends), or maybe a bad connection elsewhere.

Re: RPMs a little high at idle after replacing UIM
I took a close look at everything today, and I didn't find anythng that I did incorrectly when I previously replaced the UIM. But for good measure I replaced the 2 pieces of hose connected to the solenoid that runs to the fuel vapor canister under the air box, I double-checked that the UIM bolts and ...

Interesting. I haven't seen any other posts that seem to be for this same problem.

RPMs a little high at idle - maybe due to replacing UIM
I replaced the UIM on my '99 SLE just after I bought it, and I also removed the throttle body and cleaned it (I first removed the sensors). Everything else seems to be ok, but I believe that the RPMs don't drop to where they should at warm idle. RPMs at warm idle are around 750 RPMs. Sometimes the ...

Re: 93 SSEI Radiator fan ONLY WORKS with AC on
The relays are in the box labeled "maxi fuse relay center". As you're facing the front of the car, the low speed fan relay is on the far right, and the high speed fan relay is to its left (2nd one from the right). For example, you can swap the horn relay (2nd from the left) with the low speed fan ...

Update: The Raybestos rotors and Wagner pads have now been on the car for over 2 weeks (roughly 450 miles with mixed city/freeway driving), and there haven't been any problems with them. Braking is smooth and quiet. The rotors aren't scored and are still nice and shiny, and there's very little brake ...

Re: 93 SSEI Radiator fan ONLY WORKS with AC on
I had the same problem on my '93. If both fans turn on when the AC is on, but the coolant temp continues to rise when the AC is off because the fans don't turn on automatically, then most likely the low speed fan relay needs to be replaced. It's located in the relay center in the engine compartment ...
