Snowdog's Riv

is there any website or paper to see how much noise is allowed for the 1996 Riviera to make?? in Db

can't belive how much paperwork for getting an american car registered to finland.

Had to bay 1600€ tax and today 220€ for the tests. later + incurance and maybe something more..just crazy

where do i find descriptions for codes?
SRS comes on when the engine is warmed up and shows code P0140
sometimes when its cold it goes off.
i guess the 2nd O2 sensor, the one after cat may be broken?

okay, some updates. managed to change the lights now so the yellow turnsignal/sidemarkers are not on when driving. installed white parking lights on front. installed side turn signal lights and also rear fog light.

the only thing i need now is a new lable.
So now i need your help guys. Can ANYONE help me get a highresolution picture or find a place from where to buy this lable number 8
If i get this i can finaly use the riv again. If not i have to bay 1200€(1567$)!!!! to get a paper for proof OMFG...




the original lable was ripped off by the last ovner cos he painted the car!
But i relly need it to get the car registered.

if anyone could even find a plank one and one what shows what is writen on it. maybe i can print it out on a stickerpaper. write my cars serial code on it and glue it on the door!

where is everyone? relly noone has the time to take a picture of this lable so i can see how the numbers are marked on it?

I found the lables from the 1995 user manual. was planing to photoshop my serial number on them and print it out.


1995-1996 riv's only i guess, +1997 have diferent ones.


i hope someone can show me, so i get my car back and can finaly drive back to estonia to see my famely on christmas. Don't want to stay alone in Finand for christmas..

Is it any different compared to the stickers on a 98?

now rechecked. actauly they all are the same. from 97-99 it's just a itle bit diferent but still will do.

Ok. I've been having to charge my camera batteries. Once they are charged I will get a couple of pictures.

I tried to get some decent pictures, but it seems my cameras focus isnt working properly and all the pictures turned out blurry.

it helps if i atleast see the correct numbers. like whats the buicks GAWR FR.... and tyre pressures.

Tried to read them in the picture but can not. I'll run out with my phone real quick and see if that does any better.

OK, my phone did a way better job than my old camera. I'll pm them to you soon.

Only if that crooked front license plate would just disappear. THEN it would be PERFECT.
