Re: Used ECM possible?

Thank you for the reply! I've been going crazy trying to figure it out, every article I read seems to have been telling me even after the flash the vin won't match and you'll have a constant check engine light. I am friends with a mechanic at gm so I am going to see if I leave it in the passenger se...

Re: Flex plate? Flywheel?

It's defiantly a knocking, usually 4-6 loud knocks while the engine is firing up and then the dissaper. Will try to post a video later of what I am talking about Update: here is the video https://youtu.be/L2SLTvscV5Y It sounds like damage to the flywheel or starter. It's definitely not a problem in...

Re: Flex plate? Flywheel?

But they cannot give me a estimate of the time it would take, she says a full day or 5 hours that would be a difference of $500 plus or minus! update: i was reading all over the net and came across this Wynn's engine cleaner and i...

Re: Flex plate? Flywheel?

It is an automatic, the thing that bothers me is I have not had it for even 4 months yet! And in Canada (Nova Scotia) where I live there is no set laws or anything of that nature for a person buying a used car from a used car dealership (unlike the Provence of Quebec) It's gonna be roughly 1,500.00+...

Re: UGH! XM module, Onstar...

I was thinking the same thing and reading it from you guys confirmed that, I went to see him (mechanic) tonight and he just kind of shrugged it off so I don't think he really is interested in helping me find the root of the problem. It's unfortunate as I was really looking forward to the new onstar ...
