Bought Used in 06 with 51K, has 123K now:
Rear Wiper Motor dead Smell of Antifreeze, have to fill overflow occasionally, (new radiator cap) No A/C--Condensor leak, lower left side Front wheel towed Front Passenger Turn Signal FAST, not the bulb Service Engine Light always on Failed Emissions P0420 (Cat converter) BAD suspension/shocks? BUMPY ride needs plugs/wires/tune-up Driver side Slider Door doesn't always lock Post-Factory power window mechanisms, driver side now a crank. Still owe $4K for the next 15 months. Keep and fix or trade-in? |

Re: 02 Venture Dilemma
Well, the big problem in that list is the loss of antifreeze. The rest of them are, to me at least, things you can live with for a little while. I would tackle the coolant loss (probably the now infamous lower intake manifold gaskets) and go from there. If you do the LIM gaskets yourself you'll only be about $100 in the hole.

Re: 02 Venture Dilemma
We found when our turn signals blinked quickly it wasnt necessarily the bulb but the actual board that the lights plug into. they are cheap. we have had this problem with our venture and montana.
