'92 Century clacking noise under 20 mph
Written by: davisgra on Jul 20, 2006 8:27:03 PM
My car, a 1992 Buick Century with a V6, is making this weird clacking noise from the front end as soon as I start it up.

If the car was under 100K the repair would be free but Bob Daniels Buick of Columbus Ohio was kind enough to not charge for the parts. Of course the labor was almost $400 ... Read More

The red strip on the door is merely a reflector. It does not light up on Centurys, some other Buicks have the door courtesy lamps but not the Century. The battery thing, well, regardless of the performance of the battery, the car should continue to run on the alternator. I have driven GM products off a jumpstart without any battery hooked up at all let alone a dead one or one ... Read More
