KevenP Posted March 5 Report Share Posted March 5 and to Pontiac's. Picked up an '02 Grand Prix SE for the missus. 116K miles and I've already replaced the intake gaskets. Anything else to look out for? pwmin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FordMan77 Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 Welcome! That's some low mileage for an 02. Which engine does it have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White93z34 Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 Not a whole lot to go wrong there. you're in the Pacific NW according to your location so not much in the line of rust to kill them out there Window regulators and wheel bearings will probably be the biggest cause for concern you'll have with it over its life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the front brakes and hub assemblies done during the intake manifold appointment. Would REALLY like to soften the ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich_e777 Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 Could be some of the misc rubber bushings and strut mounts are hardened up just due to age. But they do sort of have a stiff, sporty feel to begin with. Good cars and great engine for the power to fuel economy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
