warranty said it was 120 $ for the sensor cuase it comes with the seal.....hope no one gets caught voidin warranty.

 

Im still all stock.

Its snowing here, but Im curious so Im going outside now to see if I can tell if its leaking....

 

And i just thought it was all in my head, feel good that i posted this now

 

Okay, not to my suprise its leaking pretty good. I figured it would be seeing theres so many people on here with the same problem.

Im going to the dealer tomorrow AM and its not going to be pleasant seeing theres a real **** list of problems starting to generate...

1.)Front rotors are no good (and still havent been fixed)
2.)Rear pads and rotors are junk (and havent been fixed)
3.)Wheel bearing at LR is no good.
4.)Suspension is squeaking like crazy. (probably just the cold but still..)
5.)Sunroof is rattling and squeaking badly.

Some arent major problems, however, they are 5 problems non the less. 5 problems with a still brand new car with just over 6000mi and less than a year on it. 5 problems that GM hasnt been able to fix, which is the main problem!

Dont get me wrong I am a huge GM guy and have owned 6 Chevys in my 5 years of driving, but this is getting aggravating.

 

yeah sorry to add another one to the list

 

This is not good news, will have to check this out and keep an eye out. OP good find and thanks for the update

 

here u can add defective block to ur list, full motor warrentied, thats right, 1800km and i get a new motor.
and the squeeking suspention is the cold, it will do that on every car. so thats not really a problem.

they should not build any cars on mondays and fridays, cause im sure thats where the problems come from, monday everyone is hungover, friday everyone wants to go home and party. lol lol

 

I checked mine tonight and sure enough there is a slight leak... Nothing major but I am still going to take it to the dealer and get it looked at.... I have approx. 3600 on mine....

 

Lol mine was built starting body construction on tuesday and was done thursday-friday and only one issue and of course that is the oil leak

 

the sensors must have been designed on a monday then. lol

 

Well you see they ran out of money for the important stuff like o-ring fitment and figured ahhhh hell just throw one on there i think that is everyday not just a monday for GM

no pride in their work. tisk tisk. send that motor to japan and let them make it. please dont kill me. lol

 

if the motor was made in japan, true it would run for 400k with no issues



but also it would only make about 110lb of torque also!

 

So I went to the dealer today to find out about both the oil leak from the sensor, and where the !@#$ my rear brake pads are!

I have an appointment Friday to have the oil leak checked out, and supposedly the parts manager will have an answer then on the pads. I have a nice service writer but he really seems clueless. I guess we'll see what happens Friday.

 

Can anyone confirm this problem on an 09 cobalt. Cause man I don't want to buy an 08 with issues.

 

Just got off the phone with my local dealer...apparently this is not uncommon which indicates it may affect other models as well... I guess the take home message here is - if you drive a chevy then look into it... it is probably leaking...

 

Do the 05-06 2.2L engines have this. I have noticed random oil in that exact place on my car. But i thought the cam sensor was only on 07-09 2.2L engines. SO hell maybe it's something else.

 

Mine is leaking to and it is preaty bad considering that i have only 5,000 mi on my car and I have cleaned in there once or twice. I thought I just splashed some oil in there when I changed my oil last time at first, but on closer examination I can see exactly where it is coming from.

Hey. Calling all TC owners go check under your high pressure fuel pump see if you are leaking oil. It is kinda hard to see in there even during the day so get a flashlight. this seems to be a real problem.

Bump. All TC owners need to check under their high pressure fuel pump.

 

i have the same problem and it looks all gunked up, 14,074 miles. Is this a Must fix? I cant go without a car for too long. How long is the service on this?

 

Any 09s look for this yet?

 

I would fix it now. All that oil is leaking into the wiring for the sensor with can cause the signal to fail. I dont think the car would run very well if the cam position sensor fails to work. I m going to the dealer tomorrow mornng for that and my rear brake caliper griding into the rotor.

 

LOL thats probably try, but actually thats pretty much just honda, the mitsu motors make same tq as hp now, they smartened up.

Leaking here too...

 

i have an 08 with 9700 miles on it, and its really oily under there. going to the dealer tomorrow.
