i just traded in my 2005 cobalt ss/sc for a 2006 cobalt ss/sc and i was wondering if anybody else has a 2006 ss/sc with a intake in it and if the have a cel.

 

should have waited for the '07 model, you're going to regret that. but back to topic, a stock SS/SC is more than likely to get a CEL from an intake, its a hit and miss thing.

 

why would anybody trade up for another year of the same model? At least wait until the next gen to come out. The depreciation after you drive it off the lot and after the first year is terrible its prolly best to keep it around 3 or 4 years IMO.

 

ok i thought the question was about intakes, not him trading cars. As far as CELs go, some guys get them, and some don't. Either way, I hear that a GM Stage 2 reflash should take care of a cel caused by an intake.

 

You Had To Wait For The 'o7! Waht Color U Have?

 

I'm in the same boat as you. I am getting ready to get my intake but am kind of worried about the CEL. The cars in my moms name as I'm only 17 so It's more her paranoid than me. I'm getting the stage 2 kit so I figured if the reflash will get rid of the CEL then hopefully it's fine. I don't want my dealership giving me crap though if something does happen to go wrong not related to the Intake.

 

sh1ft what kind of job do you have??? must be hard paying for that car at such a young age and still going to school

 

Get a MAF translator or a Mini AFC you'll be able to get rid of the CEL.

 

i traded in my 2005 for a 2006 because on my 2005 i had a smartbuy and i could only put 12000 miles a year on it and i had 26000 on it by the 10 month i had it so the 2006 im buying it and i was wondering if maybe the 2006 have an updated computer

 

I have an 2006 SS/SC. Just put my injen on last friday so far no CELS!! Knock on wood

 

i got the P0171 code a couple of times w/o having an intake at all, but it has not came back since the stage 2 reflash
