Took the car to the dealership today! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Well we've only had it for 5 days and I've already had to take it in to service! The battery needs to be replaced, had to jump it off twice already in the mornings, and when backing out of the driveway and turning in the morning there's a rubbing or grinding sound coming from the rear. I crawled under the car and checked for signs of tire rub but don't see anything. Also once you drive the car for a couple of miles the noise goes away. Weird, it only does it when it's "cold". Anyone experience this with their car?

yes I have had the same happen to my 2011 ss sounds like the tires are rubbing somewhere and then it goes away it only seems to happen on warm up

That's all warranty stuff. I had mine fixed already. It's common.

Differential fluid. GM originally used non-synthetic fluid, so they changed it out to full synthetic and used an additive as well. Noise is completely gone. That's all you need.

I had to replace the battery in my 2010 also.

Nope, no clue. Your dealer will. I didn't know the number when I brought it in. They just looked it up for me. I didn't even know it was a TSB until they told me!
