This just started today and I have not had any problems leading up to this. I have a 2003 silhouette and while I'm at a stop I gave it the ga and it wouldn't go. I shut off the engine for a minute and started it up and it would go but then when i would slow down and then tried to speed up(like turning a corner) it would not go again. The van is in gear and is shifting normally. The engine just revvs but won't go unless I turn off andback on but just for about 5 mins.

SOURCE: 2003 Oldsmobile Silhouette ran out of gas,now it won't start HELP

Put the gas in the tank, let everything settle, turn key off, then back on to on position, but NOT start. Let the fuel relay engage the pump and draw some gas pressure. Give it a good minute and it'll start right up.

SOURCE: Wipers stop after 5 minutes of slow or intermiant speed use.

Try replacing the Wiper Motor Pulse Board Module. It is available at aftermarket parts stores, it is easy to replace, and it is a high failure item. Eventually, the module will fail completely and leave you with no wipers.

Have the diagnosis performed by certified transmission shop. Possibly bad solenoid in transmission.

Oldsmobile Silhouette possible problem(s), just questions currently.

First & only suggestion I have, is get rid of it, and any van type vehicle

They all are unsafe in an accident

Having once owned a trans repair shop, I will tell you they all have bad
transaxles & that is what you have

It is tens years old,the trans was done no matter what vehicle you bought

You mentioned water in headlight & more issues

That vehicle is going to cost too much to straighten out --- UNLESS
you do (100%) 100% of ALL WORK yourself & the trans is not something you can do yourself or even install one

Floorboards wet on both front sides of 2003 oldsmoible silhouette

Not sure if this will help, but my dad had a simialar problem with his minivan. As it turns out the drains under the windshield wipers were clogged with old leaves and debris and water couldn't drain out. Had it cleaned at a dealership for $20.
Good luck.

I have a 2003 mitsubishi eclipse ga with a 3.0 it will turn over but won't start

Spray starting fluid in the intake air to see if it is a fuel problem. If it starts then you are looking at a fuel pump or filter. If not then we will have to go through some more diagnostics but this is the starting point. Do you have the original ignition key for it. These keys are chiped and a copied key will not work.

Rear window wiper works for a few days or weeks

Check the plug is completely plugged into the motor. Maybe a bad connection in the motor itself. Also check the switch, try wiggling it when turning on.
