| Re: Considering an older Catera? READ THIS>> 1999's dont have as much problems as the 98-97, the car was redesigned.. but occasionally it still pop's up. Valve cover gaskets is the only one ive seen really on the 99'. There is the oil cooler, but thats for every model... 97-98's get it more and the 99-01's ...its supposedly been fixed in those years, but crops up once and a while. |
