While perhaps not specific to Auroras, I thought the following link was an interesting piece on the whole Northstar family.

Hey Aurora40, you wrote in another post:
"Anyway, they are nice cars. Option info can be found here (for 2002): http://www.geocities.com/aurora402002/option "

I am decoding my Service Parts Identification tag, and have some codes that aren't decoded, and are not on your list. I was planning on making a web page showing all the codes I was able to decode for 2001, and maybe other codes and 2002-2003.

Maybe we can share info and decode some of the other codes.

I have the original window sticker of mine, too. I'll edit this post with it when I retrieve it tonight, if you want.

The scanner was too small to fit just one, and I ripped it fitting it in, ah! So this is two scans, poorly put into one :)

I added in a compilation of articles from GM's TechLink. They used to make this public, but no more... They used to make a lot of service stuff public. I guess do-it-yourself customers aren't a priority anymore.

Try http://www.autotrader.com There are usually several hundred Auroras on there at any time if you search all over the US.
