Who do I need to call

I want the no boost in the rain problem fixed. My dealer is retarded and has no clue because there is no code, and all data or whatever they use doesn't tell them what to do. Is there a number I can call so i can complain about this to someone who can help me?

x2. This issue is one that needs the variables isolated. Any chance of getting a detailed video of the issue?

They told you that it doesn't happen for me, can you bring it back when it is happening?

in all seriousness if you aren't modded (heavily) take it to another dealer. If they can't help you, call GM customer service and have them call the service manager... Only way to get the service sometimes..

So what mods does the OP have? Stage 1 or anything? Sounds like a MAP sensor is getting wet. Maybe check the lower sensor.

This thread is EPIC!!!!






















































Fail because nobody knows what to tell the guy to help him.

I would contact the supervisor at service or try another stealership.

Now I feel bad for the OP so I'm just grasping but maybe look at the wastegate actuator ... mine had a bad connection from the factory and did the same thing .... only it did it rain or shine .
