Default Finally got my new car.

After looking forever, found and bought my first LSX car. Flew up to SC to get it, then drove it back.

Already plauged with problems. P/S pressure hose leaked the whole way home, which killed my alternator a week later.

Stock, save for SLP headers/Loudmouth Cat-back. Supposedly has a "ram Stage 2" clutch, find out if that's true when my new Slave comes in.

Pics are better than words.




Had it home 1 day and did subframe connectors.

Everyone of them the door panel cracks, Yes there is a TSB on the sail panel bubbling it is from the glue that is used to adhere the top part body of the car. I seriously doubt you can get it covered now being that the car is way out of warranty and has been repainted. O well

The dealership i was working at did a few. If the recall is current/active then they will do it. As long as your car is in the vin set in the recall you will be fine.


Oh, nice car. I thought you were getting a red car.

No, I may have said that as a joke. I like red, but I think i'd get tired of it shortly

I'll have to call around then and find out, about getting it fixed.

Nice ride! Dont count on that bubbling being covered. GM is going through some crap and that is only a TSB not a recall. We have it in writing that on my wife's Saab V6 that the timing belt was free at 120k if we spent all this extra money when we did it at 60k. Now they are not honoring it and its $2700 because the engine more or less has to be removed from the car. So when it hit 100k we traded it in on a 5.3 trailblazer before anything else happened.
