    As I said in my hello post, I am new to the entire Grand Prix scene. My question being, apart from the rusting strut towers, which I do have, are there any other common, or reoccurring problems that I might want to be aware of? Thanks for the help guys (and gals). You all seem extremely knowledgeable about your cars! (and passionate too)

    Dan.. common issues (being that they are getting older) begin at the front bumper cover and end at the rear.

    Blower motor resistor
    Ignition switch
    LIM gaskets
    UIM manifold (not gasket only) (if NA)
    Dry rotted vacuum lines
    Trans issues when adding power
    Worn out control arms/suspension
    Rusting brake and fuel lines
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
