1989 Pontiac Bonneville SSE review from North America
"Well built American luxury cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My transmission has stopped shifting. I only have 1st gear and was wondering why?
I just spent $400.00 on a new vacuum module and mini vacuum piston; we installed this and still no shift. What is our option here as far as doing it ourselves?
Otherwise this car is awesome, but I fear our transmission has failed and we don't know if it is just a small thing that went wrong.
General comments?
A great engine, lots of power, wonderful feeling of solid engineering with leather seats and smooth handling.
Reliable and economical for a large car.
