Asked by Satchmo7000 Dec 18, 2014 at 09:23 AM about the 1999 Pontiac Grand Am 4 Dr SE Sedan

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

The light was on when I picked my car up from the shop where they put a new gas
tank, fuel pump and sending unit on my car.  They also cleaned the engine to try and
determine where my car was dripping a little oil.  This work was done 5 days ago and
even though the light was on when I picked the car up it ran OK.  It did clunk when I
put it in gear sometimes.  Now it clunks as I drive down the road the the transmission
shifts.  Coincidence or could something have become disconnected during my repairs?

Most likely did it on purpose to make you pay more for another repair. I would take it back and ask them.

I have a 99 pontiac grand am se 3.4L V6. The issue is that it starts and idles fine but as soon as I go to accelerate it just shuts off. It did have overheating issues but right after I fixed those it started doing this. I replaced the cam position sensor and also the engine coolant temp sensor and it didnt help. I was thinking of replacing the ignition coil packs and housi g but not sure if that would fix it. There are no check engine lights or stored codes . 4 Answers
