2017 1500 miles on it,still detonates under throttle

Are these 2.0 notorious for detonation

bybcous · 11-24-2016, 05:56 PM

Damn that sucks, but it also kind of seems like you are trolling as your referenced ford about 100 times.

SSSHYBOY · 11-24-2016, 06:04 PM

Suggest you get rid of it as soon as possible... Neither you or your wife should be driving such a terrible car.. The rest of us love the go cart.

Happy Turkey.

Have you taken it to the dealer for service?

FenwickHockey65 · 11-24-2016, 06:31 PM

Considering the 2.0T in the Camaro has been used in multiple vehicles now with no widespread accounts of what you're experiencing, you either have a lemon or you're a Ford troll.

Front suspension feels like a go kart, slapping under you feet, I would ditch the garbage pail and get another Mustang

Def thankful for my Mustang after driving the wife's 2017 detonator,Def a cheap feeling car.Front suspension feels likes it's made out of go kart parts,Feels like somethings always slapping under the feet,All in all very fragile feeling. I can bare with all the cheap feeling things as long as the detonation can be fixed,(At this point we're stuck with it)How this car doesn't adapt to fuel Ron like the Ford is beyond me.Unsatisfied with my 30.000 s*"!t box.

How do you like your new Camaro?

First - Who taught you how to write? Second - Get rid of the car; it's obviously no good!

Must be a Mustang thing. I don't speak Mustang. Anybody have a translator?

Sell the car. Some lucky person will be able to take advantage of you eating 20% off the top.

VCSRT · 11-24-2016, 11:27 PM

I'm pretty hard on the Camaro myself, but everything the OP stated I have never experienced. Sadly I use the same gas he does lol.

Many of the same posts by him in the turbo section... Hate to call people trolls, but it seems to be more plausible all the time (constantly putting down the camaro and talking up the ecoboost)
Not alot of attention was given in the turbo section so maybe he's moving on to bigger and better threads?
Regardless, take it to the dealer and find out whats wrong... My 2.0 doesn't do that and I've ran both 94 and 91 octane (and it hauls a$$ with either fuel, no hesitation, no knock)
I've also found the 2.0 to be nothing but confidence inspiring in the corners... You want to push a little harder every time; it's begging you too

Mine is far from babied every time I take it out... The only thing on the car that 'complains' are the rear tires

What tool are you using to monitor the LSPI?
