    1997 Park Avenue - Front control arms??

    Hello, I just bought a used 1997 Park Avenue Ultra and I know it needs a new front right control arm and ball joint... I figured I'd take care of both at once, however I cannot for the life of me seem to find an aftermarket control arm for this car! I see 1998-2005 all over the place but I...

    I live in mid Michigan and gets quite cold and snowy this time of year. The other day, I went out to start my 97' Lesabre which had a couple of inches of snow on it.

    97 lesabre weak air conditioner

    Howdy. I've had this 97 lesabre for about 7 years. Love the car but the hvac system is a catastrophe. I fixed the hvac programmer issue (the soft rubber nipples attached to the vacuum hoses) and the blower had gone out, replaced it. Now it blows from the vents like it's supposed to but the air...

    1997 Park Avenue Ultra front lower control arm bushing

    Hi there, I think many of you already know this but the 1997 Park Avenue Ultra front lower control arms are different than other years for some odd reason. This means that when you want to replace the bushing, you need to replace the entire control arm. It's a very expensive way to fix an...

    1997 Buick LeSabre climate control problems

    I have a 1997 Buick LeSabre limited that has the automatic climate control feature. When we bought the car last year we noticed it took about a half hour for the air to start coming out the middle vents, it would only happen once in a while though. Right now it only blows air out the defrost and...

    Hello fellow Buick enthusiests, I am new to this forum so i'm still trying to get familiar with the site. My Mom bought a 1997 Buick LeSabre Limited about 6 months ago and so far it has been running like a champ, never given us any major problems (knock on wood) however, I noticed something...

    AC Compressor Worn-Out

    I think the clutch-pack on the AC compressor is worn out. I have been hearing an intermittent metallic screeching noise from the AC compressor area on the belt side of the engine. I thought pulley-bearings had worn out, which may be the case, but I have also noticed some metal filings on the...

    Fair-Weather Riviera

    Hello Buick Folk, I have had this issue a couple of times when I'm driving my 1997 Riviera through heavy snow; I experience a power loss when accelerating through heavy snow. When I give it some gas, I'll recover that power but it doesn't seem to have much juice. Whenever I'm driving through...
