How do I change the oil in a Pontiac Sunbird?
To change the oil in a Pontiac Sunbird, start by locating the oil drain plug underneath the engine. Use a wrench to loosen and remove the plug, allowing the old oil to drain into a catch pan. Once the oil has fully drained, replace the drain plug and then remove the oil filter using an oil filter wrench. Install a new oil filter, tighten it by hand, and then refill the engine with the recommended amount and type of oil.
How do I check and top up the transmission fluid in a Pontiac Sunbird?
To check and top up the transmission fluid in a Pontiac Sunbird, start the engine and let it warm up to operating temperature. Locate the transmission dipstick, usually marked with a red or yellow handle, and remove it. Wipe the dipstick clean, reinsert it fully, and then remove it again to check the fluid level. If the fluid is low, use a funnel to add the recommended transmission fluid through the dipstick tube.
How do I replace a serpentine belt in a Pontiac Sunbird?
To replace the serpentine belt in a Pontiac Sunbird, start by locating the tensioner pulley and using a wrench to release the tension on the belt. Once the tension is released, slide the old belt off the pulleys. Refer to the belt routing diagram in the repair manual to ensure the correct path for the new belt. Install the new belt on the pulleys, following the proper routing, and then release the tensioner to apply tension to the belt.

The recommended tire pressure for a Pontiac Sunbird can vary depending on the specific model and tire size.
