#108 of 159 Wind Noise .......Anyone else have it ??? by carguy99 Jul 05, 2006 (9:21 pm)
My '06 HHR LT1 is 6 months old, & I have an annoying amount of wind / road noise coming from the passenger side at all speeds over 30mph. The faster I go, the worse it is, especially when I pass another vehicle. After 3 trips to the dealer & being told no one can hear anything unusual... the General Manager acknowledged that he could hear "my noise". I'm told nothing can be done to stop it. Apparently there is a design flaw, which prohibits the installation of an outer rubber seal around the front doors. (There is an inner seal). The noise appears to be coming from the space between the front & rear doors. I drove another HHR off their front line & discovered it wasn't as noisey as mine... Anyone else have a similar problem???? Replies to this message: vamonticello (Jul 06, 2006 3:46 am) jwest208 (Aug 11, 2006 4:52 pm)

#110 of 159 CHEVY HHR OIL & OIL FILTER CHANGE by mrfc Jul 10, 2006 (7:34 am)
from what i have read the oil filter on a 2006 chevy hhr is located on the top of the engine to the right of center as you are looking down on the engine. supposedly it is under a black cap with a large hex nut. my queston is i have also read that you do not have to crawl underneath the car to change the oil but if that is the case where do you drain the oil from? i would suspect you still have to get underneath the car to drain the oil from the oil pan.

#115 of 159 Re: HHR Check Chg Sys [lorie1] by 33wd33 Jul 18, 2006 (9:47 pm)
Replying to: lorie1 (May 20, 2006 11:24 am) Hi,   Today I got the "Check Chg Sys" light, but this was after a horribly loud bang noise, some hissing, grey smoke, and a burning smell coming from under the hood as I pulled to a stop. Had my 3 month old HHR towed to Chevy and learned that the AC compressor had locked up and snapped the drive-train belt which ripped up a hose as it snapped. Mine is in the shop and will likely be there for "at least a week" while they try to locate a compressor.   I was told the "Check Chg Sys" light came on because the belt that snapped also controls the alternator and it was not working as a result.   Needless to say, I'm picking up a complimentary loaner car in the morning.   Honestly, I love this car so much that I don't really care that it's had this problem. I am confident that once I get it repaired it will work fine after that. Hopefully, the new compressor will solve the loud compressor whine that it had from day one (and that so many other HHRs seem to have).   Good luck with your HHR! These are great little cars!
