Re: Low Coolant sensor location

No low coolant sensor on any 2000-2005 Bonneville...except the GXP with the 4.6 (sensor is in the overflow reservoir)

Some of the aftermarket radiators will have a hole for a sensor so make sure it comes with a plug for that hole.

Re: Vacuum lines L36

Also, it should only be a single vacuum line going to the trans modulator.

Maybe you should post a picture of what you're working with and we can help you that way.

Sounds like just a weak/dying battery. Did you try jumping it or having the battery tested?

Re: Pinstripe factory option?

Pinstripe would have been a dealer installed option, no RPO code.

RPO label would be on the spare tire cover.

Re: Passenger front window regulator replacement

The front is no different than the rear, possibly even easier because there is more room to work.

This is a good reference for the door panel removal/install: https://www.pontiacbonnevilleclub.com/f ... 43&t=11470

Re: Dual climate cold drivers side

Likely a bad airmix actuator for the right side temp.

Re: Need help: internal engine damage? skipped timing?

You wouldn't be able to work on it in the car because the front bank chain goes behind the rear bank chain , meaning the rear chain would need to come off as well. The Northstar simply isn't designed to be worked on while in the car. You'd be better off just getting a used replacement motor.

Re: Driver's side A/C not cold

What is your ambient temp? Your pressures are high. You have a problem. I'm guessing a clogged expansion valve (orifice tube).

Re: Need help: internal engine damage? skipped timing?

I see the Northstar with ignition coil issues all the time. I know you replaced some coils and cleaned the plugs, but I would start with all new plugs and new coils. Even the cheap ones seem to work well: https://a.co/d/bFzTqnV

Re: Anyone done an H-pipe?

In my opinion, having heard dozens of different exhaust systems on the 3800...you won't find a growly muscle sound except for idle. Any higher RPM and it just sounds raspy.

Re: CD Player doesn't read CD's

The CD unit is faulty and is buried deep within the head unit itself. Best option is to replace it with a different OEM one, but it will need to be reprogrammed with a Tech2 at the dealer or similar high end scantool.

Yes the motor should move with the switch.

The car sits on Airbag/struts in the front and air bags in the rear, powered by a chrome air tank and twin ViAir 12V compressors in the trunk. An 8 solenoid valve air manifold controlled by a computer ...

It would be ok to push it back up into place and use some zip ties to hold it up.

Re: Orifice tube--Color

Never seen a line failure, ever. I wouldn't worry about the evaporator because of the hassle involved. I would replace the condenser if you even have the slightest concern because it is pretty easy to replace.
