  • 34,000 miles
I just had my mandated 08 C6 emissions recall done. Now while in drive at a stop light, the steering wheel vibrates, along with parts of the drivers door and the center console. It is the new resonance from the mid cats and RPM idle change. Plus I drove it 60 miles, then took temp readings with a laser temp gun...my right pant leg was at 95 degrees, and the seat belt plastic attachment was at 115 degrees. I then measured the temp inside the center console...140 degrees. Also on average, the engine is running 10 to 15 degrees hotter(due to more back pressure and the leaning of the air fuel mixture) when I parked it in the garage and got out...you could feel a strong wave of heat coming from under the car. The dealership that I took it to agrees with my conclusions. However, GM corporate is not helping me to resolve these issues.
