1994 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 T-top 5.7l on 2040-cars
Springville, Utah, United States
1994 Chevrolet Camaro Z28. It has 231,513 miles on the body.The engine was rebuilt two years ago,and had only 4,000 miles on the motor before jiffy lube destroyed it.My brother took the car too jiffy lube to have the oil changed. 90 miles later the motor locked with no oil in it.talked to them about it and they denied everything.I paid a chevrolet deal to inspect the cause of the lock up, and they found that when jiffy lubed removed the oil filter they loosened the oil cool bolt which connect directly to the oil filter. Its a crazy setup that gm had but they only had it for 93 and 94 LT1s, Gm put out a service bulletin letting service centers know about over tighten oil filter could cause the oil cooler bolt to comes loose on the next oil change.But I guess jiffy lube is not the dealer and you get what you pay for. Anyway long story short it came loose and the seal popped out. dumping oil until it was all gone.The car in its current state will start but it has a Knock, and its knocking. It can be driven on to a trailer. The car before this ran and drove fine,I had just put 4 new tires on it so it has tons of tread left. The car is complete with the exception that the interior head liner is missing I was in the process of restoring it. but didn't finish because the motor locked up.So the head liner is missing. Other than that its complete. The paint is fading and the clear coat is pealing, the front bumper is cracked an their are a few quarter size dents in the quarter panels. Thats about it. O when I rebuilt the motor I had put a mild Cam in it from Compcam. I was plaining on doing headers and an intake but I never got around to doing it. I was Plaining on rebuilding the Engine again but never got around to doing it. I have the the title and it is clear. If you have any questions just ask an ill be happy to answer them.Thanks

Consumer Reports declares most and least loved cars [w/video]
Wed, Dec 3 2014Consumer Reports is crunching the numbers from its annual owner-satisfaction survey, and part of that process is finding out how attached drivers are to their cars. CR simply asks readers of models up to three years old if they would buy the same vehicle again in light of their entire ownership experience, and tallies the results. After looking at the responses for about 350,000 vehicles, it turns out that people really love a certain California-built, electrically powered luxury sedan. That's right, this year's the overall winner was the Tesla Model S with a whopping 98 percent of owners saying they would purchase another one (the Model S also won this award last year, with 99 percent satisfaction). The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray came in a close second with 95 percent of drivers hoping to park another one in their garage. A few models weren't quite so favored, though. The Nissan Versa Sedan was the least loved model among its owners; a mere 42 percent said that they would purchase another. The aging Jeep Compass didn't do much better, with just 43 percent of drivers willing to buy the softroader again. On average, about 70 percent of owners say they would buy their car again, and only four cars ranked below 50 percent in CR's findings. Check out the video above to see some of the winners and losers in a few of CR's categories. If you're a subscriber, you can check out the full list on its website.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches
Thu, 20 Dec 2012General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.
Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
