I have the very same car as you 2003 Monte Carlo SS Limited Edition. It has 150000 Km on it. That's about 130000 miles. I could take off real fast when the engine was cold but not enough to spin the tires. This car could always spin the tires. But when if got hot and I tried to climb a double lane hill ( which I usually use the left lane because I am always passing all the Jap Crap that's polluting our North American Highways) I had to use the right lane because it would down shift, rpm's go up, car slows down. How embarassing! It turned out to be a clogged catalytic converter caused by long distance travel and cheap gas. It's an expensive fix. I think I will use better gas for now on.
