Another new Reatta Convertible owner

[paulnstl]

Just brought home my 1990 Reatta convertible, white, burgundy interior, burgundy top. 75K...

drove home about 200 miles, not a problem...seller said to have AC serviced, what can i expect with that? it seemed to ride a tad bit rough, could be just me and not used to it yet, windows were very slow coming up and down...any thoughts or suggestions is much appreciateD!

cannot wait to get her out on the road with the top down.

I've got Monroe Sensa Tracs, which ride pretty good, but I think they're more on the performance-oriented side (which is good to me).

Try lubricating the front window track with silicon spray. My windows are really slow in the winter, but I don't drive it in winter, so oh well. You may need new regulators or motors or something if lubing doesn't help. Running them up and down a few times may help out too.

I pulled the drivers side window control for another reason and sprayed connector with contact lube when I reassembled. Passanger side window was extremely slow before and acceptable afterwards. Drivers side seemed to be faster.

Congrats on your Reatta acquisition!!

Now it's time to apply for membership to one of the most exclusive car clubs!

I'd be glad to sponsor your membership to the Buick Club of America, and the Reatta division.

Hope to meet you also, at the Reatta Homecoming, in Lansing, MI this fall!

Also....the burgundy top was listed as an option in 1990 but we have only found one convertible built with that color top... I would be interested in seeing the codes from your service parts label, that will tell us the color of the top as built. The service parts label is located in the trunk, on the right side of the spare tire. you will need to lift the insulation to see it.
