Default Hi.

I own a Pontiac Bonneville 1993 SE. Purchased in 2002 with 115,000 miles, it'* around 155,000 now and in acceptable condition, with a few bangs and scratches here and there.

After a lot of trouble initially with things dying (alternator, head gasket, engine, transmission, another alternator), it'* been a reliable car.

I hope this will be a resourceful community for improving our collective Bonneville experience.

whoa you had a head gasket fail. I thought that was impossible on these. sounds like yours was abused but rescued. they are good cars, 93 is where its at. in 94 you cant read the codes and 92 had the bugs since it was the first year of the new body style and motor.

welcome to the forums
