... Thanks, Ray. I will investigate. I do know that it was reading 92 degrees in the sun today, when the air temperature was only 70. Never had that problem...
The outside air temperature sensor is located on the frame rail on the passenger's side behind the fog light/fog light filler. It sends its info to the body...
Sat. Nov. 10th, 2007 Gateway HHR Club's 1st Annual Chili Chow Down & Cook-off! I know we've got some great chile recipe's out there! Fall is in the air; we've...
Hi everyone. I have a few questions about the maintenance on the HHR. I have had my 2006 LT since Christmas eve and have just about 6,000 miles on it. I was...
Rainy day yesterday in Philly and my son had not one but 2 accidents with his HHR. He first was going down a hill and braked only to skid into a van. Bumper...
Oh, and a PS The airbag didnt deploy. That concerns me. If it lost power, does this include the airbag? The damage was substantial enough to crumple the hood...
Hi Cathy First I am sorry about your bad news.The first accident ,I am sure caused the damage to make the coolant leakout somewhere and cause the engine to...
Airbag not deploying, being a retired insurance adjuster that really concerns me as an adjuster and a person owning an hhr. Let the dealership know right away,...
How much arm strength does your son have? Did the steering lock up where it would not move at all? Or did the power steering fail making it very hard to steer?...
There was a debate about this several months back in this list. I stick to my tried and true method of changing oil every 3K. Ohters seem to want to trust the...
You said no injuries, right? Most likely the impact wasn't hard enough to trigger the airbags which themselves can cause injury, even the new style airbags. ...
My 07 LT just turned over 3000 miles. I've been debating when to change the oil. It's cheap insurance to keep your engine running longer. On the other hand, if...
Bob, I was never a fan of the Grand Cherokee. I guess I was a little resentful of it atempting to replace my favorite car of all time, the original Wagoneer....
... He had steering...he thinks. But it was a blind corner, he was picking up speed, and was afraid he was going to tip over or hit somebody coming the other...
I usually use the Oil Life Monitor as a guide and change it when it gets down to 30 or 20% however many miles it has. I have never followed the rule many have...
I do not want to start a disagreeable thread but..... If you toss out the oil at 2Kmi, it is only 20% depleted. Do you also discard 80% of your gasoline? 80%...
Cathy, The plastic bumper cover may well have returned to it's correct shape hiding any damage behind it. Not so for the grill or the hood. Todd ... up ... ...
Hi Denise , I am in the same boat or HHR in California, I probably would take 9 months to drive 3000 miles around town most of the time. But I had a friend...
I've been watching all the posts about oil change intervals and am amazed by it. Why would GM spend millions in R&D on the Oil Life Indicator if it does not do...
I have to jump in with my 2 cents worth. I've always gone just a few miles less than the manufacturer's maintenance table, despite the oil change mechanics who...
Please don't assume that I know less than you. And remember, we talking about an oil change here, everyone is going to have there personal preference. Change...
Peter, Your argument would seem to suggest that you always look for the oldest milk at the supermarket so as not to waste any. Do you go to the dentist only...
I too meant no offense but this topic is one that people just feel so strongly about. And people tend to get excited when someone doesn't agree. I was just...
Hi All My Two Cents I'm sure that the oil replace sensor has a lot more to do with the oil than the miles on the speedometer. I will guess that if any sludge ...
I have to get my 2 Cents in also. The manual says every 3000 miles change the oil. Better to be safe than sorry. I had an engine blow in a Dodge intrepid . It...
The manual does NOT say every 3000 miles. The manual says to change the oil when the CHANGE OIL SOON message comes on. "Scheduled Maintenance When the CHANGE...
Who would think and oil change would be such a hot topic. It does say "Service your engine every 3000 miles". I spoke to my son , who was a Mr Goodwrench...
