Greetings,
Just looking to learn more about my 98 GTP.
What were some of the common problems with this year?
Just want to make sure that I know what to look out for if there are any problems creeping up on me.
Issues like: Tranny goes at 120k, Detonation problems over certain mileage or lean conditions etc.
I dont drive it too hard, but I would rather know about a problematic part now and get it fixed before it causes more headaches down the road.
Thanks
Craig

Here is a list from Consumer Guide:
1997-2003 Pontiac Grand Prix Reliability - Consumer Guide Automotive
I have a '98 and it is perfect.But really, I don't think I have heard of any problems specific to '98s. Seems most of the issues we deal with apply to most of the '97-'03 years.
