My tachometer quit working...took it to the dealership and they replaced the whole gauge panel.

35 000 KM's..................only had a fog light bulb replaced(warranty) and a rear speaker is blown, that'll be a warranty job as soon as the SS comes out of storage in the Spring.

10k miles on my car, only had one problem:

excessive moisture in the drivers side headlamp assembly (may have been from taking a dip to hard, didnt see it till it was to late, scrapped the bottom front bumper on the ground

) Dealership replaced the whole assembly

ThunderSS · 02-18-2011, 12:17 PM

Lost Oil Pump @ 6,000 miles, Engine builder said it had the wrong O-ring upon inspection..(stock oil pump from the factory chewed up the O-Ring, and lost oil pressure to motor.)

Front Speakers, and Amp replaced @ 11,000 miles

Front suspension popping noise fixed @ 11,000 miles

Hi everyone.........
I just picked up my 2ss camaro....everything seems fine so far with only 40kms on it, I havent had a chance to drive it much yet.

Anyways....I was looking at the engine and saw that the headers seem to have what looks like rust spots or orange rusty powder all over them. Is this normal? What do yours look like?

My check engine light came on twice in 3 weeks, Tech claim to have fix it, but i think he force light off which created another serious problem because now i have serious problem with my engine, it needs 5 parts to correct the problem with the engine, I've had the car for less then 6 months, the engine is 90% of my car or any car. I don't want this car, sad part is I want a Camero, I feel hurt that I don't have my TAYLOR with me, I replaced my X-husband for Taylor, good choice for me.

camarogolfguy · 02-20-2011, 01:50 AM

Everything. Got rid of it.

OrangeFury · 02-20-2011, 08:56 PM

Took mine to my friend's auto shop for the first oil change. When they had it up on the rack they noticed one of the rear axle seals was leaking.

Called the dealership, told them the exact problem and made an appt.

Got to the dealership, they confirmed and told me they didn't have any seals in stock.

Waited a week plus for it to get shipped, made another appt and the service tech broke the wheel sensor while trying to get at the seal.

They didn't have that in stock, either,

so they gave me a Traverse loaner and I was able to pick it up the next day.
