Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

That makes sense. I will have to get that done. Just as a peace of mind.

Not too bad. 04+ isn't that easy I believe.

04+ is that easy for key programming. It's not as easy for FOB programming though. That is dealer only.

The security light on the dash will illuminate and stay on for ten minutes.
When the security light goes out, you have one minute to start the next step.
2. Turn the ignition cylinder to OFF and then back to the ON position.

4. After the security light has gone off for the third time, turn key off and remove
from ignition. The key is now programmed and all other keys have been erased.

5. Insert key and start vehicle to test key."

Maybe it's a half hour, thought it was 20 minutes each time.

It's like 15 seconds.

I got 2 keys and fobs with the car, i just wanted a spare single key to keep at home in the invent i needed it. So now I have my keys, a set for lee's house and a set for home.


And fingers crossed I never need them, lol.

We all know that i added things to my car to make life nicer. Homelink being one of them. Life has always been great with Homeylink. Except once I met the wife. Haven't been able to program her opener to Homey in my car. Got hers working (which pissed me off further). I've tried programming other remotes in, had 3 other homelinks to try, name it.

I felt that the issue was in the remote to program the homelink. She had this one aftermarket pos called Clicker. She's the orignal owner of the house..where's the Liftmaster remotes that came with it? She doesn't know...hmmmm ?

I ordered a liftmaster remote for outside the garage door and programmed it earlier this week. At least if I forget my remote between vehicles, I can get in now. Also ordered a visor clip one, visor came in last night and I programmed it into the opener and then into my car's Homelink. Success!!!!!

I walk into the house and she decides to tell me that likely no other remotes will now work. ????? She's run into this before which is why the crappy Clickers were purchased. Hmmmm???? Try her car, no go. Try the outside one, no workie. I reprogrammed her car with the new visor one and all is good. Reprogram the outside one, test my car, her car and the outside...all good.

Suckkkkkkkeffffffinsessssssss

Finally got the keys that came with the aftermarket fobs but for the 2002 - they work great and run the car but just don't work on the trunk - not a deal breaker for me. Anyway, went to the jy and found a pretty grand prix of the same gen. I think I'll be getting some leather seats soon now as well as the other things I got from the car.

New water pump, thermostat, coolant flush and heater core flush on my truck. Melt your face off heat now.

That's because you guys in Minnesota are all completely frozen. ANY heat would melt your face!

noticed coolant on the ground under the pass side of the rad, took a peek, looks like the low coolant sensor is leaking.

also got a call back from a ad on Cl for some blizzak snow tires. 100 bucks for a pair, 5/32 nds left. so 1/2 dead, or 1/2 good. either way hes holding them till i get there to see em tomorrow or sat.

Replaced 3 water pumps in 2 months! My impala @140 (likely original) 2004 grand prix and now my 02. Well tis the season. I guess I will replace the bonneville's and the grand am's before they go on me too.

Got dusted by an E-class Merc on the highway the other day. Badly. Didn't see the AMG badge until after he had a car length on me. While the "wtf" look I got from the guy was worth it after I'd found him at the highway exit, I've decided a six shooter isn't enough, I need two more cylinders.

On the way to work I saw some guy in a GMC pickup driving on a completely destroyed rear tire. And it was snowing. I drive by him, I can hear the tire going thud thud thud and the broken pieces of tire bounces off the pavement. I could actually see the inside of the rim, that's how bad it was. I got to work, shoveled the sidewalk, and guess what I saw go down the road 2 miles down further. The same guy lol. Thud thud thud, the popped wheel spinning like 20 mph when he's moving at 5 mph... crazy

I had a kid plant his Honda in the ditch in front of my house. Took down my mail box. He lost his front bumper and both front tires. I managed to get him out with the truck and the ATV.

I spent 4 hours buffing the GTP today. As soon as this snow goes away and the roads dry up. I need to fill up the tank and put the battery tender on it then cover and be done with it for the year.



Paint should look like a mirror.

Must be really hard keeping mailboxes standing up there. My uncle's is always getting knocked over by snow plows.
At a bonfire, my moms cousins husband was telling me how he had a problem with kids running mailboxes over in their beaters. He rigged up his mailbox with springs on either side, so with enough force it could be pushed over but stands back up. Idk how he mounted everything but I assume it took some time. It turns out the kids hit it again, and it caught the rear bumper as they were going over it, and pinned them for a while lol. I guess he called the cops and they got caught.

Obviously the Honda didn't hit it on purpose though. Seems like a lot of damage.

Got the winter mats in and ready.

Id just put a steel pipe in the ground with concrete, fix that problem right up haha.

Damn Nate that looks great, ME NEXT ME NEXT. I need to take a trip down in the spring and meet up with you and Navy for lunch or something.

DAMN that looks clean Nate!
