Im the new guy with all the bad luck with my gto. The dealer had my car today to check my motor tick, the trani. clunk, and change my oil at 682 miles. I'm told that all is normal the trans is supposed to clunk when shifting and that the tech said the tick is just injectors....I'm thinking what are you deaf. So then they ask why change oil with only 682 miles and I remind them the oil is 5 months old since the car is 02/06 build and needs to be changed.
After they change the oil I tell the service adv. that I will keep comin back until they acknowledge that I have an abnormal audible knocking sound and there is no way in hell the sound im hearing is injectors as I am familiar with the sound they make. He was very friendly and reminded me that they will note my complaint in cpu. I get home and think..... man that guy who changed my oil seemed to intersted in reving the car rather than performing quality GM service. I had oil on the door handle, shifter, etc..... so Im wondering if he put enough oil in the car so I check and he had almost 1 quart over. How do you F up on an oil change My God Man what next?
I drive back per dealer advice and I'm not so happy this time $86.00 dollar oil change and you overfilled, what the hell. Talked to sevice manager and expressed my flustration with the knocking clunking and now the oil overfill he then told me they compared my gto with a red one and mine is more noisy than it. So..... this morning it was normal and now he tells me it is noisy, atleast he can hear now.Thursday they will keep car overnight and friday they will remove valve covers and check "the cold valve thrash" I assume this means check for loose rockers please correct me if wrong. Wow what an ordeal huh? I love my car but untill that sound is fixed in the garage she stays.
ps. sorry so long I just had to vent a little
