  Excellent vehicle to own. Never had any problems with it. Completely reliable. Excellent gas mileage. Built in entertainment system has been great for the kids and allows them to use game systems.

  Whole family satisfaction - 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By mmcorkins - June 7 - 10:00 am

  Loaded with options, this minivan has been an excellent way to hit the highway with the whole family. Lots of cubbys, cupholders, and well placed controls keeps this vehicles occupants happy and content.

  The best car I have ever owned - 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By MMman2 - July 26 - 4:43 am

  I bought this van in year 2000 and its been a very good ever since then. I used it for my big family of 6 kids, and now they are not here any more and now just have 3 kids. It was very good on road trips and daily communicating, it got pretty good gas mileage also. Had to buy another motor for it but it now has over 250,000 miles on it. However, this car is not safe at all. But It has been a good van and the best car i have ever owned.

  OK with some problems - 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By finner - April 7 - 3:10 pm

  Quirks- mismatching paint from steel to plastic. Front passenger wheel fell off at 65000km. Heated driver seat keeps failing. Poorly installed outside trim. Three recalls on powerdoor. Fog lights dont last. Rear door inside handle failure. Coolant loss -- auxilliary heat pump was culprit at first, now? Driver side power window does not go up straight. Rear window wiper stops intermittently. EGR valve rusted.

  Wife loves it! - 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By rgolf1960 - January 10 - 1:30 am

  Bought second hand last year with 100k miles. Was in excellent condition and well taken care of. Had zero problems so far, and wife is completely satisfied. Previously we owned a 96 Ford Windstar, and this van is far superior. Got a great deal ($5,700) and hope it will last a couple more years.

  Our Oldsmobile Silhouette hasnt left us stranded yet. Its engine has always run strong and smoothly other than an occasional hard start. As far as problems go, it had the passenger side window serviced under warranty at least twice. It is still slow going up and down. I also had to have the the VCR serviced once and its out again. The dealer has not been helpful on this one. It has a squeaking and rattling from the back hatch area when going over bumps. We just replaced the water pump at 88,000 miles. The fuel gauge doesnt work and now the thermostat seems to be stuck open. It sounds like a diesel after cold start up.

  love my olds van - 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By powell - June 8 - 5:10 pm

  Except for problems with the rear wiper, we have not experienced any major repairs. Some of the interior trim is a little on the cheap side for the top of the line olds. But I love my van and hope it last for awhile

  Need suv, dont want to sell Olds - 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By Jason - February 20 - 1:36 pm

  We bought our Silhouette with 67k on it and now have over 120k miles. I heard these vans were trouble when I bought it. All I can say is it has been the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. I like everything about it except cupholders between the front seats which get stepped on then break. To date I have not had to to any repairs at all but have kept up on the preventative schedule. I tow a 3500 lb boat medium distances and this van tows great but lacks 4 wheel drive. The driver heated seat quit working though at 100k. I really need a 4x4 but I hate to see it go. A tip, I put a $1 bottle of fuel injector cleaner in the gas one time and the power increase was huge.
