well the only things it has gone in for is
water pump
p/s rack leak, thumping noise in front {typical rack thing on gm's}
tranny squeak, which is still there!. got a new convertor and turbine shaft. now the tranny is slipping. taking off from a stop when cold, the tc slips and the tranny suddenly grabs, when comming out of dod, it spikes. normal, no biggie. when the convertor goes to lock, it slowly comes back down and suddenly shocks itself and locks. something is not right. this is round two on the tranny, for the same thing as before.

o yea badd, the dealer actually said they were goin to fix your FOB ****? They told me there still waiting on a bullitin from GM and arnt even alowed to trouble shoot the issue on the MC... only on the Imps. bastards haha.
IDK i mentioned it this morning when i dropped it off, but i told them if they gotta order parts i want the car back until they are in, that goes for the PS hose too.
All i need is some young punks out beating my car from the dealer....
I cant wait to see if they say anyhting about having no cat and CAI lol

Glad you got taken care of BADD!
Well, mine is definitely leaking! The sound came back this afternoon and i needed to fill it up again. Called the dealer and they said they'd need 5 hours to get the PS done, and 3-4 to do the Keyless thing and to address my in-op rear defroster. I'm already borrowing a car the next 3 days to get to a seminar out of town and to get the wife to work, so i cannot afford to be without it for an entire day. Hopefully i can get her in saturday, but that's full (on my sched.) too. Maybe Friday? We'll see.
