If it goes out and you are no longer under warranty, can you imagine the labor cost.

Without my car as well. All my lifters need to be replaced already due to bad lifters. My camaro only has 1,000 miles. Has anyone else had lifter problems?

No...at least not yet, actually. When they get my new windshield, I'll have to take my car back and then they will perform all the work (remove and ruin my current windshield, remove dashboard, replace heater core, replace dashboard, install new windshield).

The windshield has arrived, so I'll be taking my baby to the dealer today after work...they said it might be done by Thursday or Friday :(

2ss-booya · 11-08-2010, 05:59 PM

so im guessing the hvac update is important?....i've got 26k on mine..and no problems like that yet.

Iwantone2 · 11-09-2010, 09:25 AM

I guess so...that's what I get for not listening :(

Iwantone2 · 11-15-2010, 11:54 AM

Okay, got my car back on Friday, new windshield and all. I think everything is good, but I didn't have to use the heater over the weekend. A few things that didn't go smoothly was that when I left the dealership, I turned on the A/C but it didn't come on. I have to drive back because one of the connectors wasn't properly connected

As I got on the freeway, I got a message on the DIC that said "Service Tire Monitoring System" with a picture of a wrench. I went back the next day and it only took about 10-15 minutes to reset it. They told me that BCM needed to be reset for it because it was disconnected when they operated on my car.

ssummit camaro · 11-29-2010, 08:23 PM

so did the windshield and the entire dash had to come out

chevyss · 11-29-2010, 09:28 PM

Is there a factory bulletin on the upgrade to the heater/ac?? I've had my Camaro back a couple of times and the dealer has not mentioned anything. Where can I fine out the information?? Thanks in advance
