    Default This is for 08 models only

    Actually not for 08 models only. There are drop down menus where you choose your year.

    I did some searching about any TSB's or recalls and found this.

    Thanks for the post/info!

    My car is currently at the dealership and I'am awaiting them to tell me why my G8 GT with 10,xxxx miles has a large drip coming from the engine area.

    The spot is the size of a half dollar that appeared to be possibly oil but its been cold out so I was lazy and didn't inspect it but instead just took it to the dealer letting them know I don't understand why my unmodded low mileage G8 has a large drip mark on my clean garage floor.

    Hopefully its something like this TSB or is at least covered. I'll find out monday/tuesday. My first time owning a chevy V8 which I love but come on - only 10,xxxx miles unmodded and already a issue, hopefully its just a fluke. I've never had such a issue so soon with my foreign cars. crossing my fingers.

    sup guys i have already had mine in the shop at 6k for oil pan gasket which took them 1 month to get and the tech 7 hours to change now at 10k and i noticed it when i was washing it the other day because i lift it on the hoist spray underneath and i was leaking from the filter base or the relocation block above it. I will be taking it in a few weeks.
