Hi, I'm Richard.

I recently purchased a 2002 Grand Prix GT - 3800 N/A. It's got some problems, but for $900 124k miles I'm happy.

What's wrong with it:

Minor oil leaks
1 Wheel bearing
1 Rotor is trashed
A/C works on blower setting 1 & 5 (lol)
And of course a full tune up since it is a used car.

Anyway, this is not my first Grand Prix, I had a 1990 Grand Prix LE with 3100.

Between myself and my family I take care of:

2002 Grand Prix GT (Newest edition) (124k)
2005 Impala Base 3400 (134k)
2000 Bonneville SSEI (165k)
2000 Grand Am GT1 (189k - bought 05/2013 fully rebuilt engine now at 194k)
2000 Civic Ex (200k)
1980 GMC Sierra Diesel (converted to 454 Gas)

cool guide! yea i have run into many of those problems in the past. took a glance and saw the lower intake manifold gasket

fun stuff. I think I'll throw a fel-pro set in soon

I'm on my mobile so I can't find the link but YouTube has a how change the LIM in 33min video. Full walkthrough you can look for. Just make sure to get the updated FelPro metal gaskets so you don't have to replace them later when they fail again.

Also Timken makes the best hubs for our cars if it wasn't in the guide. Make a members ride and throw all the info in there. People use them for story lines, picture whorage, help me asap, and builds. Make one and share with us the progression.
