I don't care. I'd raise a HELL of a stink. Make her cry if I have to, I don't give a damn. I dropped $25 large for a car and you're going to give me a shuttle...**** you!

GO GO COBALT.

Thats one of the cons with the Cobalt. You can maintain it perfect yet something so little can cause such a big problem. Modded they are very un reliable. Or at least less reliable than my GTO. And my GTO is more modded.

p0300 can pop for so many reasons it is not even funny.

Yeah and trolling is retarded.

You don't hear about any problems with this type of stuff on the other LNF equipped cars...so one car does it...and all of the sudden all of them are crap




Could've been bad gas

Bum plug

Bad coil pack

Very very very hot IAT2s from a charge leak

Anything

my car is modded and I have no problems. Only thing that ever gave me any problems was the linkage roll pin, and I fixed that permanently.

You are dealing with people who have teh f4st0r of a car until something goes wrong...then it is the biggest piece of unreliable crap on the face of the planet.
