There's been a lot of issues with the A/C of that particular model depending on year.

You're looking at $400 (give or take a few hundred) for them to test for leaks, replace minor parts and / or recharge your A/C.
It can cost $1000 (give or take a few hundred) for more extensive repairs


On some years, there's also been issues of corroded electrical connector under the driver's seat that can cause hard starting, stalling, and improper fuel gauge readings. There's also the issue with some years where the brake pads don't return properly and stay partially engaged causing overheating and premature wear

SOURCE: were are freeze plugs located on chevy venture

as on any engine the freeze plugs are located along the sides of the lower engine block They look like large 1/2" to 1" brass or silver concave disks pressed into the engine block. They protect the block from cracking by poping out when the block coolant freezes.

How do you replace a freeze plug in 98 volvo s70

Replacing freeze plugs is easy. Getting access to the one leaking may not be. Freeze plugs drive into their holes and you need access to do it. There are some aftermarket freeze plugs that can be installed and expanded into place with a wrench. But you still have to get to it. Depending on where it is, it may be easy to reach, or very difficult, such as on the rear of the engine where you must either remove the engine or transmission to gain access.

How do I remove and change the back sparkplugs in a 2003 chevy venture, It tells me that cilinder 1 is misfiring and it won't pass the emission inspection

You can remove the engine struts(dog bones) mounted over the top of the radiator. Use a ratchet strap, attach one end to the engine hook on the driver's side dog bone mount and the other to the radiator support. Pull the engine forward, you can then access the rear spark plugs. You have to make sure your spark plug wires and ignition coils are not corroded also.
