Hello to all, i tried to post to the welcome forum and the link would not work, and may i say thanks for the posts i have researched already.
I have an 08 basic GP 3.8 with 180.k miles on it, i have owned it for several months now. The first thing i had to do to it was replace the lower rear strut bolts with adjustable cam bolts and back tires due to irregular tire wear, took it to get it aligned and the guy said the rear was perfect so did something right there.
I am having several issues, one is just the last week or so the engine low power light came on, and code 2138 which is the app. I bought one from the local auto parts store and installed it this one would not work at all and would not let me reset the engine light with the ODB3. The original failure i had i turned off the ignition and restarted the engine everything was fine but i opted to replace the APP thus the one from the auto parts store, this one must have been defective so i put the original one back on and so far has worked fine.
I did go to my local salvage yard and take another pedal off of a 06 GP and will install that one if need. I am not sure if this is a prelude to worse things or was just a glitch. i have been driving this car for about a week now and no problems yet. The second issue is with the seat belt chime and flashing light in the dash, I have read that it may be the seat belt switch or just a ground with the seat belt assembly in there now. It must be in the drivers side because the air bag on off light works fine for the passengers side.
And lastly and i think a lof of these rdios have this issue the led display on the left side where you can see what channel is out, which I read a post where the guy replaced the led bulbs in the radio panel and to me not worth the trouble to mess with, it works fine other than that. the engine in this car is incredible for the mileage on it, my wife has an 02 impala with the same engine and hers does not seem to have the power this one has. I have replaced her plastic intake already and catalytic converter (82k miles) This is a long winded post and am sorry for three issues at once, I will find most of the questions i am sure after I navagate the forums more. And thank you all again, together we can figure out any problem.
