That's my Monte @ 3:18. She was totaled in October 2017 by a careless driver. But, she was replaced by a black 06 Monte SS and I salvaged a few parts off of her that live on, on my black SS. Pretty, much the same modifications. I also have an 04 GTO, and a 98 SVT Contour. Great video!

All the "possible issues" you described I had the opportunity experience. 1st maybe after a month of owning the vehicle the bcm went out a few years later the catalytic converter got clogged. Then maybe a year or two later the head gaskets began leaking which caused air to get into the coolant line and blew a whole in the radiator. Then of course the dredged power steering and break line failure. Tbh I want another just a 06 ss.

The All-Aluminum LS4 is all-day reliable, the car is a great driver, and for an all-around cruising V8, the Front wheel drive is not prohibited whatsoever with no notable torque-steering under acceleration. Treat your LS4 once and it will last as long as those Silverado V8’s with over 300k miles on them!

LS motors are awesome! Unless it's one of these AFM(aka displacement on demand) motors. Active Fuel Management is the system that physically collapses the valve lifters to disable cylinders to save fuel when cruising in a low load situation. I have replaced a LOT of these lifters and others parts on these motors. The lifters will stay collapsed when they are supposed to pop back out. It's a poor design, but I make good money working on LS's. You can buy kits to delete this system from these cars.

4:30 Big Facts! Had a SS shitty whip ran hot & had 2 get a whole manifold as well. Probably had it 4 a year no burn outs, rough driving maybe raced a handful of time but I was younger & didn't have 2 many people 2 race knowing very few people with cars

Just bought me one last month. 05 SS. Not a bad car but I got the dreaded P0420 a few weeks ago so either replacing that or just deleting the cat altogether.

HEY!!! I have a question....a little back story, 1st. I purchased an '07 Monte SS in 2018 noth8ng wrong with it and was in love with it. Then something happened and now it has been sitting for 4 years. It has a full tank of gas(full for the past 4 years) and hasn't been started up or anything. What are some problems/issues I can expect when I start it up and "get it going" on the road again? (if any of that is possible)

Let my Grandpa look at it, I bet he could fix the issue. Him and I love Monte Carlos. And he works on cars all the time especially Monte Carlos owning two of them, and mine being the third.

Can anyone offer advice: I have a 99 Monte Carlo. Started up fine last nite. Put it in D2 due to snow/ice. Made it about 30 ft out on highway, and it literally died in middle of the road. Both oil and volts lights came on. I have newer battery. Jumped it and it got me home. Scared to drive it now. Plz help!!

The displacement on demand ruined those engines. Then had a bunch of ring problems on it because of that,cause it would just use four-cylinder until it gets past a certain RPM, and then it would kick in the eight cylinders.

If they would have made the V8 version RWD and gave it the 6 speed transmission or added a manual option these things would have sold much more.

The "Last Hurrah" V8s were the best (since the early/mid 80s SSes), although I have heard now 15 to 16 years later, you're gonna be back and forth to the parts store or junkyard for a few things... Not worth the $$$... Better off with getting scrapyard replacements for the early/mid 80s ones... Plenty of those to be had...
