Thanks DrkPhx. Wow Vroom, well hopefully this one is your last one. Do you know if this replacement is a different design than the other two you had?

Vroom · 08-08-2014, 10:31 PM

Yeah, should be the new one with the solid isolator I hope. My current one is starting to make the same bearing noise my first one did. Can't believe they didn't catch this before releasing for production....

A month later I am back on the road. New engine, and SC install at no cost to me. Needs to go back because I the clutch is not rift shift fine under normal acceleration. Under hard acceleration it will not shift to the next it only grinds the gear.

Now to break it in and get the 2.55 pulley installed and the LG. motorsports cam kit. Should take me to about 690-700 rwhp.

Then it will be time to stable her for winter.

Thank you GM for your outstanding support.

Great to hear you are rolling again. Atleast some what. Hopefully they can fix or replace the tranny.

Can anyone recommend a good GM dealer in the tri state area, N.J., Del, PA or Maryland to take my 2013 ZL1 in to replace the supercharger without getting the runaround ?

Why not contact chevy customer service people on this board by private message and have them address?

That's hilarious! Chevrolet will not direct you to a dealer that could possibly be better than another....they will just list you off dealers closest to your zip...the same info you can get yourself on the website in less than a minute.

What you can't get on the website is them calling the service manager of whatever dealer you select to set up appointment and educate if needed on what needs doing. Again, its worth going through them.

Too bad your giving a lame attempt at an answer with someone who has first hand experience working with "Customer Service" at chevrolet. The staff there is a waste of space and they are nothing more than a middle man. So yes...If you are not capable of talking and can not explain the issue with your vehicle to your dealership then maybe they could be of help...otherwise don't waste your time.

My 2014 ZL1 was manufactured in September 2013. Will my car have the supercharger fix already done to it?

JackalopeZL1 · 08-28-2014, 11:05 PM

Just had mine done today.. Took them just 5 or 6 hours.. Everything went perfect with my dealer.. Maita Chevy in Sacramento Ca.
