Sold!!!

Finally I have traded in my 05 Ls for something worth my money a 2007 Outlander.
My cobalt is not reliable enough for my new baby on the way so I traded it in and I got $16900 for it Can what a deal. So god bye and good reddins to the biggest lemon ever created. I'm off of here for good. so long.

P.S. Good luck to everyone else who has one. I wasn't very lucky with mine , hope you all have a better time with yours.

zero problems with 2 Cobalts totaling over 30,000kms. Yeah guess you had a bad one...but there not all that way. You got a great trade in price BTW

I'm at 9k and have had quite a few little problems, but nothing major. The engine and transmission seem to be very solid.

Its ok, just overheating under boost. Ready for a dual-pass? Did you fix that exhaust leak?

i know about the overheating thing, but everytime i start my car up and drive it it makes a very LOUD squealling noise sounds like it comes from the snout on the blower but then it sounds like its underneath my spark plugs in the engine. I will be ready in like 3 weeks as legal bills (tickets lol) are kicking my ass and im gonna try and fix the exhaust leak hopefully by mon/tuesday?

Trust me he drives his car no harder than anyone else out there by the way the SS logo used to mean that you could beat on it. Anytime I spend 25k on a sport tuner it better be able to handle some abuse by the way 24,550 and no major problems!(that i didn't have a part in)

i dont drive the car hard but 2-3 times a week if that. If someone wants to race than ill race them but the car should be able to handle it and normal driving i get 30 mpg

What do you have to compensate for the 2.5? larger idler pulley and stg 2 belt?

Also, I have a spare stock exhaust manifold gasket if yours is fucked up. I bought a new one when I installed my ported manifold, so I have my old one which is in perfect shape. Let me know if anything.
