And have a ton of questions about it. Thanks for any help!
- Is the center console portion where the @!#$er sits supposed to light up? Maybe show what gear it is in? Ours doesn't!
- The cruise control isn't working for some reason. Is this a common piece to fail?
- In our car we found what looked like a sunroof holder in the trunk. Is the sunroof removable or is this from another car?
- Does this car (2.2 Liter) have a timing chain or belt? When should they be replaced?
Any other known problem areas I should look at or out for? T
Thanks!
We have 64k miles on it and I was thinking of changing the fuel filter. Where is it on this car? Thanks!
the fuel filter is in the back under the car near the gas tank.
cruise control if that stoped working check the wires then check the cruise control box its on the passanger side of the
for the sunroof does your car have one? is it a power one? if its just one that u have to pop it up then yea you can unscrew the class. my 87 was like that.
the 2.2 has a chain not a belt. i had 87K on my 01 2200 and never changed it

The shifter thing on the console; I don't think it lights up. I just got an automatic car and I only see it light up on the gauges.
Common issues that billions will tell you is the head gasket. To see if it is needing replacement: Check your coolant - take the cap off and look for oil in the coolant. When you change the oil, look for coolant - I think the coolant reservoir is a better indicator then that though!
If you can, check the spark plugs too, and note the residue on them, (I think it's white residue for coolant getting into the combustion chamber). The plugs me be harder to remove though, as they are Delco platinums, and because they will last longer, they also are harder to remove due to being in there for a while - be careful taking them off (ie. keep the socket wrench exactly perpendicular), or you'll snap the plug!
Other than that, other issues are mainly common to the car in question and due moreso to owner negligence than to manufacturing defects.
