Can't say that I do. Normally I'll just send people parts off my car if I know it'll be sitting for a while, but it shouldn't be too much longer

Has anyone had steering issues with their 2009 cobalt ss? When I go around curves on the ighway or something my acts as if it is confused on which tire to give power to so it just bounces it back and forth which causes my car jerk left and right. Any idea what this could be? Also would you guys recommend upgrading the clutch?

not sure about the steering thing. first thing to check would be your alignment. then make sure all of the components are tight. do you have a LSD?

as far as the clutch, are you stock?

I haven't done anything to the car myself. When I bought it it had aftermarket chargepiping and cold air intake as far as anything else I don't think anything else has been done. It had 37k miles when I bought it and now has 51k and kinda seems like the clutch is wanting to slip a little so I was wondering if the stock clutch is weak or if the previous owner was just hard on it/ didn't know how to drive stick very well. I do not have a LSD.

You might want to check out the recalls. I know that the '05-'06 SS/SC's had a steering problem recall. Just go to the dealership and they'll fix it for free.

The one near Lawton closed down like a year ago the guy who bought it is using the strip for his plane.
It really sucked tho they never laid down tar stuff and it was only an 8th mile.

Thunder valley is usually worth the drive tho. But the last few times we went it was sooo packed you could only do a couple passes. For my boyfriends 21st birthday he did 21 passes but that was like 2 years ago. Lol
