issues, nothing very bad yet, had to get a new battery when I bought it. had to have a TPMS sensor replaced and now I have another bad one in the front passenger side (tpms=pita)! other than that nothing to bad!

 

I have only had mine since Oct . 09. I bought with 56,800 (?) on the od.
I now have 59,000 on it. I will change the oil some time next month.
Car runs great so far.............

 

2000 SS model with 60,3xx on the clock, had it since it was new.

 

1980 T-Top Monte
Had 86,xxx miles. One or two of them miles were mine.
Car was parked in the woods since 1992 with a knocking 305 engine. I trailered the car home january of 07.
Major problems; It was left for dead in the woods. The Weather stripping rotted which in turn rotted the interior and floors. Frame also rotted. $1800 firm.
Minor problems. I aint done yet.

 

2001 SS, she just turned over 105K and still runs excellent. The only problems with mine right now are the driver's side heated seat just stopped working, and having issues with my dash lights\remote start. I think they are connected to a BCM problem, except the seat. I usually do my own mechanic work, except when a repair requires a GM tech II.

 

'81 LC - 229 V6, 350 Trans. 140,000 something miles.
Driver side wheel cylinder went out. I replaced the disk brake pads once on the car.
I had someone re-build the carb for me cause it flooded one night. Tires were replaced as well, and a new muffler.
We replaced the hanging headliner and put seats from an '84 in the car. The originals had seen better days. The '84 seats were almost perfect and matched almost 100%.
PO replaced the exhaust, the tires, the battery, tune-up, shocks, brakes, and some other work.

'86 LS - 305 H O, 200-4R trans. 210,xxx miles.
PO claimed to have completed work but I have my doubts.
Work I've done, new tires, brake pads, shocks, battery, new carpet, new exhaust, carb rebuilt, tune-up, new radiator, new trunk mat, new blower fan motor, new belts, new water pump, new headlights, replaced taillights-old ones were damaged by PO, replaced missing center caps/beauty rings, replaced speedometer head with one that has a tripometer, replaced stock sterio, transmission had to be gone through after the torque converter went out and put shavings all through the trans.
And many times I've had to repair the lower quarter panels. The PO drove the car LOTS in the road salt and that took it's toll on the sheet metal. I do have rust free southern panels to replace these areas with.


'03 Pace car, 3.8 N/A. 74,xxx miles. (#476 of 1,401 made in 2003)
Replaced missing Pace car decals, clay barred & waxed the paint, added Ultra star bulbs to the headlights, did the taillight upgrade.
Local Chevy dealer says the intake gasket needs replaced thanks to DexCool. So I have that to look forward to.

'06 LTZ, 3.9 N/A. 14,850 miles.
New battery, new Onstar battery (2), did the taillight upgrade, added rally stripe kit. Other than that the car still smells new inside.
I did buy a new replacement upper grille for the one my cat damaged. Just need to install it.

 

My monte is a black o6 lt3 3.9 motor with power moon roof, has 25,675 miles. To date the only problem was to replace the Intermediate steering shaft. I do my own oil changes, mobile one syn. 5w 30.

 

36k.....no major issues, stored quite a bit...tire pressure monitor and temp gauge have had small issues

 

I'll do the easy one first

'88 SS, 102K only issue was had the replace the ECM

'01 LS, 69K, blown LIM @ 30K, ISS @ 50K, Blown head gasket @ 62K, blown window accuator @ 67K, blown PS pump..currently

 

1999 Z34, over 207,000 miles and still going Purchased in 2001 with 30k on it.

- Fuel pump replaced around 34k, must have been bad gas from somewhere, mechanic found trash in the line. Original warranty covered it.
- alternator went out not too long after the original 36k warranty period.
- sunroof stuck around 130k maybe, can get a replacement module for $360 (http://www.sunroofdoctor.com/9599montecarlo.htm) or just the replacement guides for $150. Haven't replaced mine yet but plan to eventually.
- small oil leak
- in the last year - fuel leak, not sure where mechanic found it. Fuel pump went out around 204k, radiator leak recently.
- The dash can warp/curve up around the passenger airbag. I kept mine covered as much as i could so its not too noticeable, but I've seen some that were pretty bad and cracked.
- Minor interior things - control lights going out, console hinge broke, hazard light button broke off. Replaced drivers side window control a couple years ago.

Compared to the mileage and age on the Z34 I've been incredibly lucky. Its a wonderful car, wouldn't trade it for anything.

2004 SS Supercharged, 84k - I've only had it for a month and I haven't noticed anything wrong other than the ISS noise and one light is out on the climate control. I'm hoping to get just as many miles out of it, and fully expect I will!
