Newer Pontiac owners chime in

One of mine is a 2004 GTO that I have owned for 22 years. It has 114,000 miles and other than the alternator remains 100 percent original. Tires of course, oil changes, of course, coolant changes,...

It's even worse if there are undulations in the roadway or hills to crest. It's even worse if there are worn lane markings or the pavement is asphalt. I don't even go out at night anymore because of...

Personally, I think the problem will be short-lived as repair prices have skyrocketed so much that the same folks struggling to pay their car payments won't be able to afford repairs. Many shops now...

Thank you VERY much! With that info I was able to look at the new alternator and identify exactly where that tab was. Since the alternator is located at the bottom of the engine, it is difficult to...

2004 GTO alternator

After twenty one years and 113000 miles the alternator gave up. It's fairly tedious to access and remove the alternator but the one thing I have left to do is figure out how the electrical plug is...

Self-Serve Carwashes.

i don't use them often as I usually wash my cars myself in my own driveway. But in extreme conditions I occasionally go to one to remove the excess salt during the winter. That's normally about...

I think they should change the name from Mecum to the Five Cs and Ms auction. I mean, literally, 90% of the cars are Camaros, Chevelles, Chargers, Challengers, Corvettes, and Mustangs. Then, one of...

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
