She'll have to take the ZR2 to school!
If they will give you a 5 year, 100K warranty on the rebuild, that may not be a bad deal.
Where is it remanufactured, GM or a third party? I suppose they have enough damaged motors to salvage the blocks to start a successful reman program now, I'm sure business is good. I'd tell them you want a new one.
it would be nice to get a new long block. if GM is behind a reman dont see a prob. i would make sure you have an extended warranty.
Good deal! I hope you don't have any more problems. Good to hear somebody's consulting with a lawyer. I think that is the way to handle this issue. It will also put you in a better position if there is future action involving GMs minimal response to it's customers for a known issue.
If the engine were to fail, the first year and 12k miles was the time to do it according to the lawyer because now the coverage for lemon law gets extended. Wish I didn't have to worry about it but I will just do Subaru oil change intervals from now on and blackstone every single one of them. And if it blows up again I'll just go ahead and join the duramax gang haha
I am doing 5k oil intervals on my wife's Tahoe and about 3k on my 22 1500. I work my 22 harder than she does, so i consider it "severe duty". So far the two tests I've done appear the same regardless of use. I just did another change on my wife's rig and the sample is in the mail to Blackstone, so we'll see. At 5k miles, the DiC says it still has 33% oil life, but I don't use that info.
On that Subaru interval, just make sure you don't do the 2.5L "oops I drained the transmission and double filled the oil" style of oil change...
thankfully the STI 6 speeds have a plug far far away from the oil pan lol
As a Subaru Ambassador, I can't tell you how many times I read about someone mistakenly draining their CVT thinking it was oil
my son did it... lolAs a Subaru Ambassador, I can't tell you how many times I read about someone mistakenly draining their CVT thinking it was oil
