Bleeding Brakes

Also with regard to my 2002 Bonneville brake bleeding question, I could not get the rear bleeder bolts loose and did not want to twist them off, thus I bled the rear brakes at the brake hose going into the caliper....Is this acceptable? Thanks

2003 Pontiac Bonneville - How to Remove Relays in Fusebox

My grandparents have a 2003 Bonneville which has, in the past few months, started to become very wishy-washy with its air conditioning fans. They'll work one day, then not the next. They'll hit a bump in the road and then it will start working. They…

2000 Pontiac Bonneville lacks power

I put new plugs and coil packs on my car. It runs but it slowly gains speed. What's wrong with it? It doesn't have a catalytic converter and my oil isn't mixing with coolant. This car doesn't have the supercharged engine.
