just noticed the other day i got antifreeze in my oil on my new ss/tc. its only got 1800km on it and already a blown head gasket and i havent even been that hard on it, its winter and i cant do much. anyone else have this problem or did i just get a bad gasket or they didnt torque the bolts tight enough

 

ouch man thats horrible i would kill the dealership!!! the only problems i had with my 08ss had been the esc and the intercooler piping bracket breaking i hope it all works out for ya keep us posted!!

 

that sucks. Hope you get it figured out.

 

is it just me or has there been an incredible amount of misc problems with the new SS???

 

i took it in today, so ill probably find out next week what the prob is, i dont think its the dealers fault. i was the only one who drove the car, i pretty much bought it within a month of it getthing there. I think it probably was a bad gasket or the bolts were not torqued enough at the factory when it was made, gm has been know for that. the 3.4 motors in the mini vans had that problem, the only person i know who's didnt go on him told the dealership to tighten them all before he bought it. But ya im just glad it went now instead of when warrenty was up. No damage to the motor as far as i could tell. i noticed it in time. if any other problems do come up i will post em and probably raise hell till they give me a new car, i didnt pay 25g for no lemon man. The head shop guy was very surprised she said the motor was rock solid and they haven't had any problems with them at all. only other problem i got is the sunroof isnt aligned right, other wise the car is great. except for the stupid park break plastic handle crap comes off it ur not carful with it. kinda sucks but i can fix that.

Oh and if anyone has a stock boost gauge that in psi instead of kpa they dont want let me know cause i want one that in psi, i dont know how to read kpa. lol

oh does anyone know where the oil filter on this thing is? is it under that metal caseing with the 2 bolts holding it on in front by the oil pan there? i dont want the dealership changing my oil, thats my quality car time. lol dang i wish the turbo was in the front, it would be so much easier to work on and look a lot better.

 

shitty they'll for sure warranty that. i think you can get a psi boost gauge from crateenginedepot.com.
