Well it took 6 days for my GMPP Stage 2 & K&N CAI to blow the dipstick out and kill the intake gasket! o- well Dealership fixing

distillion

my dipstick did that, have bigger orings on there to prevent that from happening again, also got them to order the new gasket GM has to prevent this from happening again, should be in by next week since its coming from the states

Are they gonna get the bigger O rings or do i need to, and yes they are putting the better gasket on !

distillion

they did it for me,
its a lil harder to take out the dipstick, gotta turn it then pull up.

ALright just left a message for the guy at the dealership hopefully he can do that for me Thanks for the info distillion!

Ok Just talked to the guy at the dealership He said it shouln't need bigger o rings with the new gasket . I kinda insisted he look into for me he said he would. has anyone had the dipstick pop out with the new gasket. I don't fully understand the reason this is happening so i don't want to insist they put bigger o rings on when i don't know exacltly what i'm talkin about!

i had my gasket replacee two weeks ago and it has not came out yet ......good luck with yours tho

distillion

i had the orings replaced before this gasket was available, you should be ok with the new gasket.

ok thanks Distillion! Thats what i really wanted to know !

wil the dealer put the gasket and the o ring on all cobalts or only the ones with the problem?

If the Stage 2 was installed at the dealership they should but i'm assuming they won't untill you have that problem!If not factory sold then more than likely Cost is on you! the o rings are not necessary with the new gasket! In some cases the o rings were changed to keep the dipstick from shooting out but that was before the new gasket fixed the problem with it poping out ! just talked to the tech about mine !

I haven't figured out why they do not sell this gasket with the stage 2 kits since it is a very common problem though!
