Hello everyone

[dbral]

We own a 2002 2.2 5 speed Alero with 130K miles. It is in pretty good shape other than some dents, dash pad peeling, and a rattle noise on start-up that may be timing chain/tensioner related based on the info from this site. The plan is to keep the car running until parts are no longer available. Wanted to say thanks for all of the good information on this website. It is nice to know that people are still keeping these cars on the road and also taking good care of them.

Welcome to our little slice of heaven! Enjoy the wealth of information.

Thanks! Going to be using that information this weekend to try and fix the engine noise and some other stuff.

Oh, also have been following the Ion C2 Alero build on here. Kudos bud! Nice work. Must be a blast to drive that thing and it probably surprises the unsuspecting public quite regularly.

Absolutely. It's getting some serious stuff done to it right now, hopefully will get it running soon on the standalone and tuned to 600whp, where it will sit for a bit til I get the money to do the rest next year.

Best of luck going forward with your build and hopefully you continue to post your progress. It is already the ultimate sleeper.....just gonna be a little more over the top
