When I turn on the
there is 2 electronic damper controls for driver and passenger heat and cool controls directly in the middle of the car under the dash near the floor. They move the damper for temperature control up and down when you slide the switch. One of them probably got stuck or just died. same thing happened to me but mine was just stuck and I had to free it up. hope this helps
I have a 2005 Chevy
There a heater control valves behind the dash which is either broken or have gotten stuck. The valve behind the dash act as on and off switch as as you would turn your faucet on and off. they tend to get stuck due to heat. The valve basically allowed hot antifreeze water to flow though the heater core giving you heat. when the valve broken or stuck open, the hot antifreeze will continuous flow to the heater core, therefore is the reason why you get constant heat. It a nightmare to fix, you will have to take the dash apart to get to it. the part run somewhere in 40 bucks. if your not mechanical incline, my suggestion would be the next time you get oil change from your local chevy dealership is to ask around those GM mechanic (Do not ask the Manager) and see who does side work; negoiate with him this way you will save big buck on dealership shop hours. Have only authorize GM to do the repair, not your local repairshop. Tearing into any automotive dashboard its every mechanics nightmare. Good luck!!!
While driving, the temperture gage
It sounds like your thermostat is sticking. That should not be too involved to replace and if you have a medium level ability you could change it out yourself. These newer cars aren't like the old ones - sometimes you'll have to remove components you would not have had to on an older vehicle, so I suggest getting a repair manual first to decide if you want to do the job yourself. Most auto parts stores will allow you to look at a manual without purchasing as long as you don't get it dirty, so you may not have to but it to make your decision.
Good luck!
DOES NOT ALLOW US TO PUT GAS IN IT THE PUMP KICKS
pull the nossle out a little and it should work better.
try a different station.
the older nossles took more to shut off but ocationaly caused a spill so they make them more sensitinve.
inside the nossle is a small float. if u put gas in too fast some times u get gas bubbling back up the small hose from your tank thats made to let vapor out. if it does u will hit the float and shut it off.
its probly more the nossle then the car. although it does depend on the car as to how fast u can put gas in.
next time u put gas in look in there after u take off the cap you will see a little spring loaded flap.
put the nossle in just a little bit past that. not all the way in. this usualy helps.
and like i said u can also try a different gas station to find out if its the nossle or just simple that the car wont take gas that fast.
i have had that problem at some stations where i cant even get it to stay on on the slowest notch.
hope this helps.
My speedometer only works part of the time. Is
i have a 2005 monte carlo 3.4 v6 auto with overdrive. i recently replaced the whole cluster because the tach and speedometer was reading crazy.i bought one at a salvage yard installed it and have had no problems for several months.now unfortunatly i am ee=xperiencing the speedometer dropping speed all of a sudden and then it will go to zero and not change at all.the only thing i can think of is the fact that i installed a set of 18 inch wheels and the same day my speedometer started the crazy stuff.so if you have the wrong size tires or wheels i assume that this is the problem.the computer is reading something wrong and the speedometer is responding to this.i hope i have helped you.
2005 Monte Carlo Super Charger Oil
On the supercharger snout, located immediately to the right of the coil pack mounted closest to the supercharger, is the supercharger oil plug. It is a hex nut that uses a 3/8" allen wrench.
When the engine is cold, remove the plug. You can use any item of your choice that will create vacuum such as a siphon, a turkey baster or my favorite is a squirt bottle nozzle with about a 12" line on it.
Insert your hose into the reservoir hole and remove as much of the oil as you can. If you use the squirt bottle nozzle then if the hose is long enough then you should be able to "snake" the hose down into the reservoir almost the entire length of it by pushing the end of it toward a "1 o'clock" position if you are standing directly in front of the car.
Squirt the oil into another container. If your oil is the GM supercharger oil, it is animal fat based and biodegradable and can go in your regular trash.
Refill with GM supercharger oil or any other appropriate lightweight oil specified to meet requirement for the Eaton M90 supercharger. An equivalent oil can be purchased from www.zzperformance.com.
Fill the reservoir until the fluid reaches the bottom of the fill hole threads.
As an added note, if you lose the hex nut cap for the reservoir it isn't necessary to order a new one. A 7/8" fine thread bolt will fit perfectly but be careful not to torque more than 8ft/lbs with either the nut or bolt.

There was an issue with the sending unit itself. There were 4 or 5 thin contact points on the sending unit. The new ones have 3 thicker contact points, they tend to last longer. As the contacts break off one by one the fuel gauge becomes intermittent and then nothing.

What type sound is it making? A clicking, squeaking, squealing, popping? What are the gauges doing? I would say from what info I have it would be the BCM or Body Control Module. But if you give me more info, I should be able to give better advise.
Speedometer is stuck at 50 mph
This is a common problem with mostly pickup trucks and the "W" body platform vehicles GM has. Your stepper motor has failed that controls the speedo. All the gage movements on instrument clusters are controlled by stepper motors. Your only choice will be to go to the dealer and have it replaced or you could remove the cluster yourself and send it off to a repair facility for about $80. One such repair facility can be found on eBay. Hope this helps.
