This is my second camaro and my whole family drives gm products..its just how i grew up...but seriously..I mean this isn't a 9k dollar Hyundai....okay sorry for the rant...good luck man and I'm glad they are taking care of you
Really just about all cars have some common "niggle." In fact I would guess that the less expensive the car the fewer the issues that occur. Since you work on bimmers, you know that their high pressure fuel pumps are failing miserably. With BMW the problem went on for years with no real fix. They'd just replace one bad fuel pump with another identical pump that could fail at anytime. Hopefully GM will find a better oil pump and resolve the problem for good.
