THANK YOU. Just brought a 2008 Grand Prix GXP. Thought I had to throw the whole transmission away! Did a little research and stumbled upon you and when I looked at the connection in the engine part, it was disconnected and bad! Just replaced and runnning like a dream
It's good to know how to do this but I was fortunate with not having to replace my cable because it came loose wear it connects to the transmission linkage. I simply place a tie wrap around it to keep it secured. Great video though. I would not have had a clue on how to replace it.
I called for a tow and I told the tow truck, he told me, he has the same car and sometime the linkage falls off, it's under the hood, so he lifted the hood reconnected it and the gear shift was back to normal. Like you said in the video this isn't always gonna be the reason, but for anyone it happens to, it's worth checking that first 🙂
The only thing that would be different is the removal of the center console but it should be the same idea, just different spots for bolts and where plugs go
I want to install the 3 tire piler gauge window clip like in your GXP; In my `04 GT2, but I don't know how to hook everything up, could you do a video on how to do that, temp, oil pressure...also looking to replace my factory stereo have any suggestions??

Thank you so much for this video, it's really nice of you to share your knowledge. It's hard to find a lot on this make/model/year.

Good stuff man, this helped me on a previous generation as a reference (2003)
From a few years later, thank you so much!
good video man. been looking for a step by step for a min now.
My sister got her shift cable replace on her GXP now the trans is leaking terribly. Gonna get it looked at but there is no way that is linked right?
No, I’d just say it was a crazy coincidence. Unless for some odd reason, someone mistakenly remove a bolt for the casing
Any one know what that little clip holding the male and female ends of the shift cable together is called?
Out of curiosity how much would you charge for a job like this?
The 321 are the lower gears pretty much what the do is keep the transmission for shifting out of first second or third gear
Just know the GP's will shift out of the gear regardless if you have it sitting in 1, it will only shift out at the higher side of rpms
Hope this the same for my 07 Impala SS. Except I only need the Shifter part. Right now, when I put it in Park, it's really going into R.
