    Number 1 cylinder missfire. What to do?

    Swap #1 and #4 plugs. Chances are you'll get the misfire on #4 now because Bosch plugs are pure garbage. Replace with a set of AC Delco or NGK. Put it to you this way. If I have a customer coming in looking for a tuneup, I would send them to another shop before we'd put Bosch plugs in.

    Castrol Edge Synthetic!

    Too many negative reports about Royal Purple on the bobistheoilguy.com website for it to ever see use in my engine. Amsoil is a very good oil, so is Mobil 1. Pennzoil Platinum is also very good. My advice is to take whatever advertisement, advice or test results from any manufacturers...

    09 Cobalt steering feels loose.

    It sounds like excessive play in the intermediate steering shaft. You should have it looked at by the dealer asap.

    Installed Injen charge pipe I recently ordered charge pipes from Turbotech and got the chance to put them on this weekend. I also ordered some bigger fittings and tbolt clamps from another company to install them. Installation was easy but time consuming. If not for the fact that I had...

    engine noise when I first start up the car

    The evap self check happens in three's and it comes from the back of the vehicle. It sounds like somebody taps your trunk 3 times. They must have changed how it works slightly because my SS has never done it yet my G5 GT did it on a regular basis.

    Why are you guys buying control arms when the bushing itself is sold by the dealer for less than $30???

    My nitrous opinion

    That's why baby gas is the last thing on the list. Build your engine. If that's not enough then add forced induction. Then if you need more, add a baby gas system.

    question about automatic trans service

    GM does not recommend a fluid change under normal service conditions. That being said, I agree with the other guy replying about a fluid and filter change and 50k miles.

    17" G5 GT wheels on a 2009 SS?

    I posted this question to CSS and nobody answered. The 17" G5 GT wheel. Does it clear the Brembos on the front of the SS? I'd like to think yes since the 17" Cobalt SS wheel does but I'm not going to drop the dough on these without being sure.

    cuppa quick questions not solved by search

    There is a company getting ready to release an oil catch can for the SS Turbo very soon. I can't mention them by name because they aren't a supporting vendor here.

    cuppa quick questions not solved by search

    The slide pins are not lubed from the factory but that's not the cause of rotors being scored up. I lubed up everything at 6,000kms when I saw the first sign of scoring. At 12,000kms both rotors were scored inside and out. The lube was no help.

    cuppa quick questions not solved by search

    Squeeling is common on ceramic pads? You've got that one backwards. We only use ceramic Delco pads in our shop because they are noise free. Of course, if everything is not lubed properly then you'll probably hear the pad vibration as a squeel. And as the pads being the problem, that is...
