Has anyone else had similar problems? 2 years ago I bought my son a 1996 grand am. I worked with the owner and she drove that car back and forth to work for several years, so I thought I was getting a good deal. The car only had 89K miles on it when we bought it. Since we've had that stupid car, here's what we've had to fix/replace: Radiator Everything oil related Battery ... Read More...

96 Grand Am GT 2.4 transmission trouble

Written by: nauticaboy025 on Aug 26, 2007 03:02 PM

I have a bit of a problem. I have a 1996 Pontiac Grand Am GT with 150,000. A month ago my dad changed the filter and fluid. After this was done when I would first start the car I would have to let it run for a minute or it would really bog down for it to move. Once it ran it was fine. Yesterday I was on the highway when I realized the rpm was going up to keep it going at a steady 70 ... Read More...

Basically it won't turn over fast enough to get the car started. It wears down a fully charged battery in one start, and the wires/starter get warm/hot to the touch as well. I've replaced the battery terminals when I put a new battery ... Read More...
