  1. Where specifically on Reatta.net can you download the manual free? I don't see it. Ansel
  2. Guys, Is anyone planning a 2006 Reatta car show? I live in Chicago and missed the last one in Libertyville! I have a black 90 Reatta convertible and LOVE it... Ansel
  3. I've emailed them a couple times and haven't gotten any response. Are you sure they are manufacturing them? Ansel
  4. Would that be anti-freeze? I saw some droplets of green fluid on the pavement under the engine area of my Reatta convertible. Isn't green anti-freeze? Ansel
  5. How do you find the right circuit? Would the dealer know what one it is easily? Ansel

    Guys, I saw what looked like oil drops on the concrete under the engine of my 90 Reatta convertible. Should I be worried? I just have the engine tuned up and oil changed and the mechanic was impressed and said my car was running great! Ansel
  7. I have the same problem with my 90 Reatta convertible. Would also love to know how to fix it. Any guys out there got any ideas? Would the Buick dealer know how to fix it? Ansel
  8. Yes. I'd be interested in it. Don't ebay it. Sell it to me directly and save listing fees. How much do you want? PM me. Ansel
  9. Sorry, guys. Yes. I have a 90 Convertible and I dont see any screws holding the faceplate on...
  10. Guys, I have a black reatta convertible with light grey interior. The "faceplate" on the digital dashboard is black with silver trim around the edges. Is there anyway to spraypaint this all black or all silver to give it a "clean" look. Right now the silver paint on the edges are all chiped. Has anyone done this? How do you get the faceplate off without cracking it? Thanks.
  11. 88ReattaJohn, I am in Chicago. Are you in NW Indiana?
  12. How do I clear the "Door Adjar" light from coming on? I think it has to do with the driver side door lock button. It doesnt go up/down very easily (and doesnt lock when I put the car in gear). I light comes on when I put the car in drive. What do I remove to fix this?
  13. The passenger window is very SLOW to move when raising and lowering the window. It's about to die soon. How do you go about replacing the window motor with a new one to fix this? Does the whole door have to come off? Is it easy to do or should the dealer handle this?
  14. I brought my Reatta in for a full tune up. The mechanics came back very impressed with the clean condition of the engine! They ran a diagonstic on the engine and agreed with me/everyone here about the check engine light. It is due to a faulty camshaft magnet. They quoted $600+ part and labor to replace. They said it is a very minor part and doesnt affect the performance of the engine, etc. I have chosen to ignore it. Would you guys agree?
  15. My mechanic says he found what looked like plastic parts from the clutch pack come out in the pan when the transmission fluid/filter was changed. Should I be worried??? He said the engine is in great condition. Clean and well maintained. The test drove it afterwards and it runs fine.
  16. Reattadudes.com doesn't come up. Is that the right website?
  17. Guys, Me being all thumbs when it comes to car repairs can't change out the Camshaft magnet myself to clear the E041c error message for the Check Engine Light. How do I go about telling a Buick dealer that this is what needs to be done? Are they gonna listen or want to run a diagonistic themeselves? Are they gonna charge me and arm and a leg?
  18. So, is there a way to delete the old "h" codes leaving on the "c" one?
  19. Guys, I ran the diagonistic test and wrote down the error codes. Can anyone tell me what they mean? And, what to tell the mechanic to repair/replace so that the Check Engine light goes off? E041c E041h 6552h r026h r061h Edo1 Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
  20. Guys, Do you know what city 90 and 91 Reatta convertibles were made in? Was it in Detroit?
  21. All, All of a sudden, the latch to release the hood doesn't work. I pull on it and nothing happens. What could be causing this? Does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks
  22. Great! I will run the diagonistic test and get the error code(s) and post them. I am hoping it's nothing to worry about.
  23. Guys, The Service Engine Soon light has come on in my 90 Reatta convertible. The car runs great (especially on the expressway). Can this be an electrical glitch within the electrical dashboard or does the engine need servicing and if so what? The car has 160K miles on it. I don't know when the timing chain was last replaced. Also, The "Door Adjar" light comes on and stay on while driving. None of the doors are open so I don't know it is saying this. Again, can it be a electrical short? Suggestions? Anselmail
