I'm on my 4th map sesnor. It just sucks when the tech there says "I dont know how to fix it." So they just keep putting new ones on. My 4th one already went out 3 weeks so im just driving it like is and seems to run fine ive got the 09 gauge that shows knock a/f etc and its all good.
eh let him post his repairs first. I know for a fact that GM had several camaros burn to the ground from faulty wiring from the factory. and yes they replaced them. I don't think it was more than 5 though so I think you should look into the lemon law and get a new car.

corrections!
the car is an 08 turbo no lie to that...it does not matter the year as long as you know it's not supercharged....do not be so dumb as to think that the problem does not occur. the map sensor is all that is being pulled up when ran through the obd II diagnostics. if any of you have had the problem then respond. if not you are wasting my effort at getting it fixed. I am trying to not lemon law it, but it is looking to be that way! instead of bashing, be helpful, not idiots!

I've gone through more repairs and trips to the dlr with my 2008 ss\TC then my last 10 cars combined... these cars are economy cars and the lack of build quality shows that........ I now have a fuel issue again and the car is in limp mode>> sensor reading little to no fuel..... MAP Sensors (3), fuel pressure sensor (2), Wastegate soleinoid actuator valve (1), and so on... If you've had the same thing acting up more than 7x's it's a lemon car..... Do you have mods? if so you may want to de-mod, goto another dealer and get it fixed...... 99% of the GM techs I've talked to about the SS\TC did not know that the brake master is shared with the clutch.....STUPID... GM needs to can\fire all the over paid idiots they call techs\mechanics.

Im having a issue with my maf sensor. It threw a code for low voltage to maf sensor
turns out it was my map sensor, it went out due to higher boost than the sensor is designed for.... Only way to fix it is get the gm kit with the upgraded map sensor
