You're right, I don't know anything about cars let alone my own car.

I'm going to part out my Cobalt before I hurt myself.

 

Looks like the gearbox. I remember posting about not NLSing with a tune and basically got flamed for it. Maven then posted up that picture (mentioned it happened 3 times with separate cars mainly on the 2-3 NLS shift) and everyone shut up.

I still don't NLS. I've done it 1-2 times tuned, but it ends right about there.
