The hell's wrong with my car?!
Saturday I got a CEL. Went to Autozone got the code p0008. I Immediately called a dealership and set up an appointment for today (Monday) at 9AM. I went to drive my car to the dealership today and the light was off. I decided to still bring it in to have them look at it. Now after 6 hours of waiting I get a call back saying they need to keep the car and check the engine. They said that everything should be covered under my warranty and that I will get a rental.
I'm just sad. I want my Camaro back. How long does it take to fix a p0008 code and will it really be covered under my warranty?! |
think it has to do with the timing...

The LLT engines have a known issue with the timing chains pre-maturely "stretching". I had to have mine replace at around 54k. Luckily, it usually is cover by warranty, though I have heard that some dealerships have tried to blame it on not changing the oil to spec or letting the oil run low. Mine saw the code and repaired it with no questions asked. There are lots of links to this issue and the LLT 3.6 engines.

On a side note, I have used Auto Zone on several occasions with mediocre results... |
I have a '13 V6 M6. Was this issue corrected with the LFX's or is this something I'm ging to have to worry about as well?
