My new, well, not so new ride.
2003 Buick Park Avenue 3.8-liter V-6 (205 HP @5200 rpm/ 230 lbs.-ft. @ 4,000 rpm) 4-speed automatic w/OD Seems to have most of the optional features on it. Although, It needs some moderate maintenance done to it. -Passenger side mirror needs replaced. -Rear struts are bad -Tie rod on the front left is in need of replacement. -Transmission for the windshield wipers needs replaced. -Standard tune up (spark plugs, oil, etc..) -Front bumper has cracks, needs replaced. Right now I use it for local driving.

Welp. Had to bite the bullet. Talked to the mechanic. He suggested a win - win solution. The solution was to go down to the Buick dealership down at the nearby auto mall (Everything from GM to Nissan and Mitsubishi. Side story, my father used to go there to get his Datsun parts from the Nissan parts department back in the 90's.)
So, was recommended to go down there and order a re-manufactured transmission from Pontiac Michigan. Next week, when the transmission arrives, I've got to meet the mechanic at the dealership to pay the 'Gasp' $2k (Mad respect to my fam for the help). Then the mechanic will transport it back to his garage and install it. Looking on the bright side, it's straight from the plant and matched to this car. So hopefully it'll last a very long time. I cannot wait till it's finished. I miss my car. |
