Thanks for keeping us posted. I hope they can get this resolved for you fast. My can only has 600 miles on it. But like I said earlier I had the same exact issues as you did in the beginning.

Today She ran well. Went for about 100 miles today still keeping the speeds down. Everything was great up until pulled into the subdivision and I let my foot off the gas.... my wife kind of freaked out because it sounded like the car was accelerating and there were kids in front of us. My foot was no where near the gas??? I'm still a bit nerved up about everything, (stabilitrak, misfire issue). Dealership could not find a root cause for the initial misfire and now this?

Thanks for sharing VictorSS, hoping they get yours worked out. Gonna try to get some more miles on mine before the winter. We'll see.

Good to hear! Sounds like you're all set. Was it the Air Intake Valve? Throttle Valve? This is where my initial concern was when my dash started flashing.

Still good news buddy, take care.. if you could let me know which parts they replaced I'd appreciate it. Thanks

Alright guys, I finally got my car back yesterday. Turns out the main issue was the warped intake manifold. The parts they replaced was:

New engine
New gaskets
New spark plugs
New intake manifold
New clutch
New flywheel

The clutch was not covered under the warranty as it was not part of the problem. I talked with the technician so he can show me everything that was done to the car. He told me that the previous owner had been running nitrous in the car which would explain the engine failing at 50k.
