Ended up cutting it off and just sticking a pipe in there. What a world of difference. The Alero lives some more. Feels like I gained 100hp, transmission shifts better, and i don't get choked out by...

I cut the ends of the harness and made it longer. Routed it so it runs on the firewall away from the manifold. I did not fix my problem. Oh and the top side stud on the #2 exhaust runner is rusted/...

I think I finally figured out what's going on with my car. I noticed I have a lot of issues when it's wet out which automatically made me think an ignition issue. Well as it would turn out there is a...

It could be a camshaft solenoid. It could be going bad and then the computer won't know what the timing is. Heck it could even be a loose timing chain.

I had that issue. I cut the horn ring out. Then I cut the ground wire going to the horn circuit in the multi-function switch and wired it to a toggle switch in the shift bezel. So now when I want the...

I just got the daily drive factory replacement kit and it works good. I liked how the hardware was pre-installed onto the calipers so all I had to do was slap the pads in and install them.

Rockauto - Powerstop brakes

Just installed a complete powerstop brake kit on my Alero last night. I was impressed with it, especially for the price. Calipers, pads, rotors shipped for $160. It sure is nice having front brakes...

I'm not completely sure what it could be but I know there are shift solenoids to control the shifts. As far as not having any forward gears it could be a bad range sensor. That's the one on top the...

People think the trailing arm and the lateral links are good pull points to get out of a situation where they are stuck. I see it all the time. I had to replace a lateral link on my Alero because of...

200K Alero club

Well here's the proof of my 2003 Alero joining the 200,000 mile club. I've done a fair amount of work to it and it's been a good car. I bought it with 130k and a bad intake gasket.

So far I've...

glad it was an easy fix. I actually used a pair of diagonal cutters from Snap-on. No issues at all. I didn't need to trim much though.

It'll fit. You just have to cut out some of the plastic supports behind where the radio goes. I had to do that to fit my pioneer in.

It should look pretty cool and not "muffle" them at all. Plus they look a little more bad ass and "metal" than waffle style grills
