This car is a clean salvage title. And it does have a share of issues (but also very good points), however, let me explain the new pieces and history of it. This car is drive ready (given, it is rough. Please read below for information).

I strongly believe this car is worth fixing and driving. Before this small issue, I loved driving it and getting compliments on it being my car (I'm a student just out of HS).

The car has many brand new parts on it (I never do used performance parts). Most of the new parts of for performance. I never got around to doing body work. Battery and alternators are GOOD (12.4V and 13.9V will running). CCA and CA of both show good during testing.

The check engine light is on. I have an OBDII scanner and will show you what the codes mean.

NEW PARTS
- Power Steering Rack
- Inner Tie Rods
- Rack and Pinion
- EGR valve
- BRAND NEW A/C Control Head (cold A/C and heater work)
- Brand new ignition switch (I never put the ignition cover back on).
- Air filter
- Spark plugs and wires
- Fuel Filter (changed at 174,000 ODO)
- Oil Filter (changed at 174,000 ODO)
- New Oil Dipstick (inaccurate reading. cosmetic)
- New Rear Brake pads (NEVER GOT TO CHANGING FRONT. WILL GIVE FREE FRONT PADS)
- New Passenger side mirror
- Seat covers for cosmetic
- Has an AMP and subs in back. Not hooked up
- NEW Front windshield
- BRAND NEW tires (currently have 400 MILES on them)
- New PCV valves

USED PARTS
- Engine upper intake plenum (installed by professional mechanic)

There are problems with the car, as I said. I'm not sure what is 100% wrong. I no longer want to continue fixing things on this car (I am a student and cannot afford to continue tuning it. I have two little girls [sisters] that need safety to and from school). I will be getting a new car.

KNOWN ISSUES
- Engine code (P0300)
- Rough acceleration
- Exhaust vibrates ONLY AT IDLE
- VERY ROUGH IDLE
- Squeeking when accelerating (only on initial). Car will run fine once it gets above 30 MPH

I suspect a sensor is bad. Changing them out should improve performance. Because of the issues, I suspect the TPS (throttle position sensor) or camshaft sensor. TPS is $30 at O'Reillys. Worth a swap. However, I recommend getting it professionally diagnosed at most repair shops for free. (Free diagnostics at most local shops). Gas treatment is also recommended and might clean up acceleration. I only put 93 OCTANE (premium) fuel in it.

I have a log book of everything that has been done to the car. Will be given if purchased or viewed. Please text me at the contact number for any more details. I know everything about this car and will be happy to inform you of them.

GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes

Tue, 28 Aug 2012


Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
