Is your 2004-2005 Buick Park Avenue suffering from frustrating and unpredictable issues like stalling, a persistent check engine light, rough idling, or poor fuel economy?

- Erratic engine performance, including surging or hesitation
- Unexplained stalling or difficulty starting
- Harsh or delayed transmission shifting

Expert Insight: The Path to a Smooth Ride
We recently worked with a Park Avenue owner who was about to give up on his car. It had developed an intermittent stalling issue that no one could pinpoint—it would die at stoplights without warning, yet restart moments later. The check engine light was inconsistent. He was frustrated and had lost trust in his otherwise immaculate vehicle. After confirming his symptoms pointed to the PCM, we sent him a module programmed to his VIN. The installation was simple, and the problem vanished instantly. He called back a week later just to say he was enjoying his car again, noting the transmission even felt smoother than before. That’s the difference a correctly functioning and properly programmed 2004-2005 Buick Park Avenue PCM 89017735 can make—it’s not just a part, it’s peace of mind.

We use the VIN to load the exact GM-certified software for your vehicle, ensuring the 2004-2005 Buick Park Avenue PCM 89017735 works perfectly right out of the box.
Is any additional programming required after installation?
No. Our service ensures the module arrives fully programmed and ready for installation. In most cases, you will not need to perform any additional programming. However, some vehicles may require a simple security relearn procedure, which can typically be done without special tools and instructions can be easily found online.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is on due to a fault within the original PCM (like internal processor errors), this replacement unit will resolve the issue. It’s always recommended to clear all codes after installation to verify the repair was successful.
Is this part difficult to install?
The PCM is typically located in the engine compartment, under the hood. Installation involves disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connectors from the old module, unbolting it, and then installing the new one in reverse order. It’s a task a confident DIYer or any professional mechanic can complete with basic hand tools.
How does the one-year replacement warranty work?
If the module fails within one year of the purchase date, we will provide a replacement unit. This coverage protects you against defects in the part, giving you confidence in your purchase.
