    Hello all. Problems with subject vehicle are detailed here: http://www.grandprixforums.net/threads/106671-U1301-Code

    And so it's time. Pics will follow, it's blue black with the special spoiler. On the one hand, most of the miles were easy - I had a long commute, didn't drive it hard, I kept up with Amsoil and what-not, including changeout in the supercharger. LIM gasket done (and upper and valve cover while you're at it...) at about 120K. Engine sounds good, cruise still works, air conditioner's been done (converted to the new stuff) and still works; virtually no wear on anything inside but the drivers' seat. Original embroidered mat on passenger side, why I didn't keep the driver's side mat aside I'll never know - wore a hole in it an my wife pitched it. Tires are Goodyear Tripletread new just before last winter - I have the Sam's Club paperwork. Amsoil oil change 7 wks ago. If I could get a cheap tranny and do the work, it'd be on the road again, but that's over my head (in more ways than one - and I don't have a lift).

    On the other hand, the tranny is probably gone, or at least the lock-up converter. The paint is hard and the quarter panels have the usual rust - driver's side is barely hanging on. TCS doesn't worked, radio clock light is out, and the gas gauge hasn't worked for a while,(thought the mileage computer and "fuel used", oil life calulationr & boost gauge work fine); both key fobs got lost. If I trade it in, it's headed to the auction. I'd rather see it go to one of y'all for parts or project. The car is immobile, or you'd better not have far to go.

    I'll update later tonight with pics, VIN, sticker and more info. I still have the window sticker and original sales literature. I have no idea what to ask.

    And I tried to upload pics and kept getting "Upload failed". I'll try again sometime tomorrow. (9/24) and I still can't.
