well i am a proud owner of a 2010 Camaro LS V6. and man am i glad. such a nice car!!!!

but i have a couple of question if you must say...

first off..when i start the car and just let it idle there is a noise...like if a piece of paper or a sticker is hitting a moving noise. idk how to explain it. any way to get rid of it? also...i was thinking of changing rims and such. but i heard that these tires/rims have something called a tire sensors and such. how do i take them off and put them in a new pair of rims? can that void my warrenty?

probably a new sticker near a moving part..and you can get new rims w/ sensor or transfer them..not heard of different rims voiding warranty..

check under the hood, plenty of tags there, could be what your hearing.
As for the sensors, they are TPMS sensors which can be replaced onto your new rims, or you could get new sensors for your rims.

Could be wrong, but I suspect the ticking noise could be the direct injection ticking.

That would be my guess also.

any way to get rid of it?....Get a aftermarket Exhaust then you will mainly here the new Exhaust....

OH another thing.

my camaro is manual. and of course everyone stalls in a while. and i was wondering. when u stall the car turns off,....of course...but then..when starting it again you know the speeddomitor or w.e. goes up and down. do i have to wait for it to read correctly or not? i can just launch it real quick?

thats normal. you can still just drive..takes a sec for the gauges to align

i hear ticking too... i chalked it up to the direct injection. but i never even thought to explore the engine compartment for any tags

tpms can be ordered with rims/tires. check out tirerack.com they will ship it all installed with the sensors for a direct swap... its nothing to be concerned about. very common for any vehicle nowadays.

You will get the hang of it. Just try to keep the revs around 1000 starting off.

tstpierre · 02-08-2010, 05:35 PM

I actually always start in 2nd gear. Only 1st if I feel like being ignorant

And yah... 1k rpm min for light acceleration
