Oldsmobile Intrigue Problems

Engine Stall Or No Start Condition

Engine -- Verified

The fuel pump may fail causing engine to stall and not restart.

High Pressure Power Steering Hose Can Leak Fluid

Suspension & Steering -- Verified

The high pressure power steering hose will commonly leak fluid; it should be replaced.

Intake Manifold Gasket May Leak Coolant or Engine Oil

Engine -- Verified

The intake manifold gasket may develop and external engine oil or coolant leak. In some cases, an internal coolant leak may occur causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Our technicians tell us that operating the engine  with a coolant/oil mix can result in internal engine damage. Replacing the intake manifold gasket should correct these leaks.

Erratic Shifting of the Automatic Transmission

Drive Train -- Verified

The transmission pressure control solenoid may fail causing erratic shifting. Our technicians tell us that partial dis-assembly of the transmission is necessary to replace a failed pressure control solenoid.

Corrosion on Battery Cable Ends

Electrical & Lights -- Verified

Acid may leak from the battery at the cable connections, resulting in corrosion on the battery cable ends and in the battery tray. A Leaking battery should be replaced and the cables thoroughly cleaned or replaced if necessary.

AND WHAT IS THE MOST LIKELY

I own an 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue 3.8L. It has 260K miles on it and its still kicking! No major repairs have been necessary. Changing the oil every 3,000 miles has gone a long way. The engine is slowly losing compression however. The only complaint I would have would be the turn signal lights. The lights go bad every 3 months and after replacing the sockets, they still go bad. Has been a great car overall
