I went to get the re-inspection done on the Volt yesterday. I was able to get the sticker. I did have one I/M test that was incomplete. I was told that it was the O2 sensor and not the heated O2...
It's been a while and I am down to a 1/4 tank of gas. I stopped last night at AutoZone for a free scan. The cat is all set but the blasted heated O2 sensor still shows as not ready or incomplete. I...
The very bottom picture shows what looks like frame damage. The rail seems a little deformed right where the wire loom drops out of the picture near the center at the bottom of the picture.
Fuel level is about 40 - 50%. What I think was inhibiting the setting of the flags at least for me, was that I would drive the 18 miles home, park it in the drive for 4-5 hours (not enough for a cold...
I looked at LAST years Volt inspection report (the first time I registered the Volt). What I found that the report had "N/A" for the emission category. This may mean that emissions were not looked at...
stephent, that make sense to me. The point of HAVING to run gas through the car to set the flag, even though I primarily use electricity is ridiculous. The whole point is to reduce emissions, not...
The service manager called back and left a message on my answering machine. He said he read the document and it stated what to do, however he said at the end of the document/procedure it is stated...
I stopped by an AutoZone to have them check the I/M readiness with their scanner. The O2 and cat still show as incomplete. I also checked when I got home with my Acutron 9145. I found that it's time...
That explains why the Volt was flunked. I had a not ready on the cat and another on the O2 sensor.
Thank you WopOnTour and Ian for the document number. When I called the dealer after reading the number to him, his response was "Well why didn't Detroit tell me about this document when I called them...
My thoughts exactly, if someone should or power happen to be cut to the 12V battery, all data that is needed to be saved should be written to non-volatile memory (memory that retains the data in the...
I went today to get my Volt inspected today. I wandered off to grab a cup of coffee while they did the work. To my surprise when I went back to the service area, I was informed that my Volt had...
I supposed that's it, the Volt doesn't know that I'm trying to enter data from the passenger seat. I forgot all about onstar. I'l have to try and remember my other options next time.
I was taking a small trip today to deliver some tools I had borrowed. I had the address of where I needed to go and figured I would enter the destination as my wife was driving. To my surprise it...
I'm trying to cut down on donuts so I don't get a spare tire... Sorry I couldn't resist!!
In my Tahoe, I have them. They can also allow a second source. For example, if I am driving and want to listen to a CD, the the back passenger can listen to the same CD Or can listen to any station...
Place some simple audio controls on the back side of the center console so rear seat occupants can select channel, volume, source and the like. Doesn't have to be a touch screen but actions could be...
According to what I've read, it wires right in to the harness of the Volt and is programmed in to the system using a GM Tech Tool, then helps deter unwanted intrusion and protect the contents of your...
Has anyone had the GM security alarm, part number 19243150 installed in their Volt? If so, what is your opinion of it? Does it trip false alarms at all?
When my 1999 Olds Alero had one go, I replaced it with a cheaper aftermarket. I don't think I even got 3 years out of it. Sad thing is, about a year and a half after the first one went, the one on...
