Your car's an 06? GM had 5 year powertrain warranty back then right? Just take it in...I take mine in for everything that pisses me off. They're going to be repainting the bottom of my doors, replacing a door striker plate or the striker itself (whichever is broken) and I'm going to bitch at them to make the inner door handles stop rattling all the time.

Warranty's great like that. :P

i can understand yor frustration, but if you were messing with a touchy part of the car like the TB then you have to plan for this to be possible. additionally, you're being a jerk to everyone on here. let up on people a little or don't post.

06's only had 60k powertrain. but if they take apart his TB and see he bent the blade they'll void it.

any gm for that matter. which is becoming bull **** because most are improving greatly and equal the japanese and germans.

like for example i was reading motor trend and they complained about was the cts-v's interior. now personally i have been in a new cts and its interior is just as nice if not nicer than bmw's mercedes infiniti's lexus. which i have all been in 2008 or newer versions of so i can legitly say
