Whats going on

 

Betting he popped the cold side end cap on the stock intercooler. Pretty common problem.

 

Code is p0101 as Cobalt08ls told me. Already told them to check the intercooler end tanks and charge piping for breaks. Idk if they did or not. P0101 comes up as a maf code but more often than not it's a boost leak.

 

Time for new intercooler. It is inevitable and it happens to almost all of us. I didn't want to believe it when it happened to me either.

 

Check where it connects to the throttle body cause its hard to tell, but it's probably the IC end tank.

 

Easy way to see where the leak is, spray your charge piping, intercooler, and intake manifold with some carb cleaner, when the motor sound changes you've probably found it.

 

Make sure you have a fire extinguisher on hand though just in case or propane is a safer alternative.

 

it got late. he was too pissed so we left. we unplugged the maf and the car straight died.
he took it to the dealer we told him to wait till he could get his tuned flashed but he went anyways

 

i wanted to take the bumper off and all nut he was too pissed.
only way dealer would void his warranty is if they check for tune and that caused this problem
he said the car wouldnt start. also showed the video to a friend and all he was saying was bro ur engine is done you broke a rod bearing that sucks.
how he can assume this i dont know but wanted everyones view on that kids comment saying the engine is blown

 

he is getting a stock tune by a loacal and than it is going in the shop. he told the dealer not to bring his car in the shop. made up a story saying he needed a maf. than they could bring it in

 

Either it's the intercooler or you guys jarred loose a rocker arm or busted a lifter. Your ticking is really loud in that video, louder than I'm used to hearing.

 

yeah op which is my buddy jeff thinks the engine is done. i wated to pull the bumper off but it was getting late and the kid mike who is having the problem was pissed ans just wanted to go on
if he flashes it to stock tune like he says he is than he will be in better shape when they take the car in than if it is tuned. but regardless they would have to proove the tune causes the problem inorder to void anything.

other mods are zzp 3 inch catless and k&n intake

 

Broke the intercooler. You smell gas because the car is running really rich due to unmetered air being pulled in to the system, post-MAF. Dude needs to calm down, pull the bumper cover off, and replace the intercooler. The dealership doesn't have to prove anything. That's BS. All "proving" anything means is having a certified technician (professional) say that the issue was caused by the driver. How hard is that?

 

well keep this updated

 

What they will do is just scan it and see you guys flashed and it and that's it. Any ECU manipulation is automatic warrant void. At least write entire the old tune back on to help cover up that it was done.

I agree with intercooler comments however, the ticking in the head does sound worse than it should IMO. The motor is probably fine though.

 

so all he has to do is get a full flash to stock correct?

 

he has 36,300 miles on his car and the 3 years was up in feb. is this covered under powertrain?

 

newp

 

this is my car idk what to do even if i untune the vehicle and still bring it to them they still wont cover it the car is bad it will start and stop. should i keep it tuned and just have them diagnose it if its teh intercooler should i just buy a aftermarket or repurchase a stock one pelase help me this is my daily what is the car worth in this state thimking im just gonna tade it in i owe 13K on it

 

and i would write teh old tune back on but nick at BYT has yet to contact me back i wrote him pleanty of emails i need a new ECU or something done ASAP what would be the best way ill buy a ECU today if i can i need help im ready to jsut fuking freak out

 

Your questions have been answered and your just going to say F it and trade in a car that does not run? You will be lucky to get 4K for it not running properly.. Why not take the advice of the people here and test for a broken IC. and while your at it do a compression test just to see if the motor is really done. then make a decision instead of just thinking ill retune to stock and have the dealer look at it Which will entail higher labor costs than doing it yourself, SInce your out of powertrain warranty id suggest fixing your self. Or take a 10K hit on trade in!

 

car is sitting at the dealer cnt tst for it there and will they do a compression test there and im in powertrain just out of bumper to bumper whic will not warranty a IC im just so fusturated

 

they can fix and get easily 17 for it we all know how they work im jsut lost i dont know crap when it comes to this **** man

 

They could sell it for 17K once fixed but what's it going to take for them to fix it? to buy a broken car they will low ball you hard like really hard! If you want to you can pick it up from the dealer and tow it home and atleast TRY to fix it yourself, You haul tow trailer and a buddy with a truck would be a godsend in this instance! and some plywood incase your lowered!

 

Gm took the car in sat. and mike (Red09SS518) just texted me and said the ecu was fried and that its covered under the powertrain warranty
