THIS IS A 1996 CHEVY ASTRO CARGO VAN. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER PURCHASED NEW FROM DEALER IN 1996. MECHANICS SPECIAL BECAUSE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SLIP AND TRANSMISSION WAS REMOVED FROM VEHICLE FOR REBUILD. MECHANIC FRIEND REMOVED AND DISASSEMBLED TRANSMISSION THEN FELL ILL. TRANSMISSION IS CURRENTLY IN A BOX IN THE CARGO AREA OF THE VAN WAITING FOR RE BUILD AND RE INSTALLATION. I WOULD NOT BE SELLING VAN IF FRIEND WAS HEALTHY ENOUGH TO COMPLETE THE JOB. VAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN RELIABLE AND CURRENTLY RUNS GOOD AND A/C WORKS ALSO. MILEAGE SHOWN IS ACTUALLY MUCH LESS BECAUSE SINCE ABOUT 1997, THE SPEEDOMETER HAS RUN AT TWICE NORMAL SPEED AND SHOWING TWICE ACTUAL SPEED. FOR EXAMPLE WHEN IT READS 60 MPH, YOU ARE REALLY GOING 30 MPH. SO IT HAS ADDED 2X MILEAGE ON TO THE ODOMETER. IT WILL OBVIOUSLY NEED TO BE TOWED BUT ANYONE WITH TRANSMISSION KNOWLEDGE CAN REPAIR AND RE INSTALL IT. HAS THE USUAL SCRATCHES AND DENTS FOR A VEHICLE ITS AGE BUT ALWAYS BEEN A RELIABLE WORK TRUCK. PICK UP ONLY. CLEAR NJ TITLE.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday
Tue, 11 Dec 2012There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
