recently i had a control arm bushing changed on the passenger side (front) and the mechanic had to blow torch the bolt off because it was seized, (canada) is there any sensor near that place that could have melted since the sway bar bushing was completelty melted and he had to replace the bushing. or it this related to timing?

im getting really sick of my cobalt ive had nothing but problems week after week for years.

You could scan for code(s).

Some codes trigger the engine disabled and power reduced (limp mode) and wont come out of it until they are cleared.

Did you plug it back in correctly?

Shogokuma

yeah it was like 2 months ago..

Shogokuma

so is this pedal or throttle body related what do you guys think?

i found that the throttlebody sensor plug was unclipped. trying to push it in dosent seem to clip at all. i must have broken the clip when i pulled it out.
