It's not a Lumina forum. It's a forum for all GM W-body cars, which include anything from the Lumina, Grand Prix, Cutlass, Regal, Century, Intrigue, LaCrosse, Impala, Monte Carlo from the late 80s to the current Impala.

 

@ Officer...... Not really sure yet, I only took it around the block to make sure basic function was okay. I need to wind it out to see if it's fixed. 25 mph city streets are not the place to do that.

 

Just got back from dinner in Hudson and meeting up with Dan (skyeglen). Was great to see him again since it has been quite awhile and got to show him Agent O's new duds

 

Drove mine yesterday for about 1 mile... to test the different driving modes... then dropped it back off to the dealer... going on a month of it being OOS

 

That is just crazy!

 

But you know what is more crazy. GM Tech/Engineering not having an F'in clue on what's wrong with it, let alone how to fix it!!!!!

I have done the math on my car in the shop. 4 out of the 11 months I've owned it, it's been in the shop. THAT IS SOME BS!

 

Tested the 2nd to drive and drive to overdrive shifts at WOT..... Vince fixed the problem!


@ Gas Man, sorry to hear they can't get this right, any chance it has to do with the engine swap?

 

I wouldn't think so Grey. 5-7psi in first gear. 15-18psi in 2-5 gears. Nothing helps... go see my posts in the SS section.

 

I ordered up a few Pioneer items that will upgrade my stereo system to a Pioneer "Stage 3" System, that Fits my HHR Panel.

You can go to Pioneers website and select your car by year, model, etc.

Then a page opens up with 4 "stages" of systems you can begin to build on.

Stage 4 would be nice but pricier than I wanted to spend.

I Ordered these today.

Pioneer TS-W3002D4 12 In. Champion Series PRO Subwoofer with 3500 Watts


Pioneer TS-D1602R 6.5 Inch Two-Way Speakers with 260 Watts Max Power For the rear doors.


and, Pioneer TS-D1720C 6.75-Inch D-Series 280-Watt Speaker Package For the front doors.


I will be Ordering these Amps, very soon.

Pioneer GM-D8500M Class-D Mono Amplifier with 1200 Watts Max. Power



Pioneer GM-D9500F Class-FD 4-Channel Bridgeable Amplifier



Should sound pretty good I have listened to most of the Pioneer stuff in store but we all know thats Not the same as hearing it all set up IN your car.

According to Pioneer, all these, With the Pioneer AVH P4200 DVD Head unit are what they call a Stage 3 setup and all should install nicely in my Panel.



The HU has been installed for awhile now, I had all this stuff sitting in my Amazon cart for a long time so with warmer weather on it's way around here it was time to start getting this stuff Ordered.

 

Not that into pricey car audio myself, but have fun with all that.
