    2018 TourX Essence: While test driving the vehicle after the installation of new ignition coils and plugs, my shifter got stuck in manual mode (finally was able to move it back in D with some wiggling).

    What do i need to run full e85 on tune?

    I currently have a 2013 regal turbo premium with the triffecta tune on it. From factory i am able to run e85 in the car but the tune recommends running at most e47 since anything beyond that the stock fuel system can't handle. I was wondering what mods would be required for me to run full e85...

    2nd Gear Drive Mode Considered Bad By Owners Manual

    As I got my car, I read through the owners manual. 1-4 Gears are available to use/select but if I use "2nd" drive mode, for more then 25 miles, then it could damage the transaxle. I don't understand how it can damage the transaxle since "3rd" and "D" use 2nd gear. On the newer cars that used...

    Does anyone have a reference with correct fluid types?

    I just bought a used 2017 Lacrosse Premium with AWD at 70K miles and want to give it a full fluid change before I start putting miles on it. I'm seeing different recommendations depending upon where I look, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask here. Regarding the transmission, does Dexron VI...

    Transmission Clunks after accelerating from a stop (4T65E)

    I’ve recently been noticing a weird issue in my 2007 Lucerne where my transmission seems to kick or clunk into gear when accelerating from a stop. I have gotten no engine codes at all, I hooked up a computer to it and noticed that it sometimes likes to start in 2nd gear, then immediately shifts...

    95 RMW Rough Idle/Stalling with a knocking sound.

    I've got a 1995 Roadmaster Wagon with the LT1 and tow package. Around a month ago, when it started getting cold, the engine started making a knocking noise on startup but dissipated after a few seconds. My initial guess was the oil pump wasn't getting oil to one of the pistons fast enough...

    2016 Buick Regal Chugging/Hiccuping While Driving

    I have a 2016 Regal (2.0) with just over 40K miles. In fact, it's probably one of the last out there with remaining powertrain warranty from GM. I recently did a round of maintenance on the car myself, including: new spark plugs (OEM), new engine air filter (OEM), and cleaning the throttle body...

    2002 Buick Regal LS - Car tugging when releasing off of the accelerator and up-gearing (153k miles)

    I'm still trying to research more about this and thought it wouldn't hurt to ask here as well on the forums: I've noticed that whenever I accelerate and my car up-shifts there is an infrequent pull/tug which I think comes from my transmission. I have added this instant shutter fix which helped...

    Transmission Shuddering/Slipping/Delayed Shifts

    I have a 2016 Regal FWD with just under 40K miles. I bought it with 8K miles back in 2019 and it initially drove flawlessly. In the past few years, I've noticed the trans has been randomly acting up at times (shuddering, delayed shifting, pre-mature shifting, slipping, and everything in...

    2014 Encore shifts to park then neutral while driving

    So this has happened 3 times this week. The first time I thought it was a fluke. About a minute after pulling away from dropping my daughter off at school, the car quickly shifted into park, the door locks cycled like I parked, then neutral. It was just long enough in park to feel the jerk from...

    2017 Buick Lacrosse

    I see an intermittent message "Service Transmission" on my 2017 Lacrosse with 66k miles on it. There is no "check engine light," and this message usually appears when I park the vehicle or put it in neutral. I scanned with the OBD2 tool, and the code is P07BB, "Transmission Park Position...

    2005 LeSabre: Gas Cap Loose, No A/C, and Hard Shifting

    Hello! I recently came into possession of a 2005 Buick LeSabre Custom. It's my first car, and in all honesty, I'm loving how comfy it is. It has a majority of its suspension recently replaced, so many of those issues are gone, but I'm running into other trouble. I work at an auto parts store...

    Trans hard-shifts/clunks into gear when warm

    I have a 2007 Lacrosse with the 3800. Since I bought the car in Feburary, it's had this issue where it will shift fine in the beginning of my drive to work for example but when it warms up it'll start to clunk into every gear except third. It's not low fluid, I just replaced the cooling lines...

    It finally happened, a car finally left me stranded. My 2018 Buick regal GS made a horrendous noise and failed to go into drive or reverse in the middle of an intersection. This required a tow to the dealership. I got the car to the dealership and they're telling me that I have a short in my...
