#13 of 82 Re: Engine Cover WANTED! UPDATE! by mybooo Dec 30, 2005 (9:22 am)
Replying to: mybooo (Dec 30, 2005 8:50 am) I just got word from the dealer that they will special order one in at no charge! THANKS for the advice! I really like this forum! I was a member of a Grand Prix forum (previous car), and while I did learn some things, I think it had a lot of younger members on it, and it was pretty out of hand. The Maxx and Malibu forums seem real helpfull, and there seems to be a lot more friendlyness.   Larry

Replying to: sschriber (Dec 30, 2005 11:08 am) Well, I just got another email from the dealer. He is saying the don't make them for the MAXX. I have seen them on the MAXX, so I know they have them! here is what he wrote me:   "Larry, My parts department went to order the engine cover and a message popped up that said engine cover not available for year make and model of vehicle. So they called General Motors and in 2005 General Motors did not put engine covers on the Malibu Maxx. There is not even one that can be ordered. This was a big surprise to me, apparently you can get one for the regular Malibu's but not the Maxx. Anyways, let me know if there is anything further I can do for you. "   So back to square one. Oh, and what does it look like? They are black plastic, with "3500 V6" on them and they cover the top of the engine. Looks rather nice!

Replying to: mybooo (Dec 30, 2005 12:19 pm) Engine cover was a late add to the 2005 Malibu but went on both sedan and Maxx. Underhood there really isn't any physical difference between them anyways.   However I should have mentioned this - cover won't attach properly to older engine because there were some other changes to put in attachment provisions. One would likely have to have 2 cars before/after to see what changed Replies to this message: mybooo (Dec 30, 2005 1:46 pm) maxx4me (Dec 30, 2005 4:05 pm) prdm (Dec 31, 2005 11:45 am)

Replying to: e2helper (Dec 30, 2005 12:53 pm) I wondered if that was the case. THe build date was Aug 04, so it is an early 05. I can live without it :-)Just thought it dressed it up...but who sees it anyway? Replies to this message: maxx4me (Dec 30, 2005 4:05 pm) prdm (Dec 31, 2005 11:45 am)

Replying to: mybooo (Dec 30, 2005 1:46 pm) I call them dust collectors. All they serve is to make it harder to take off the valve cover to repair the engine. I originally thought you were talking about the fire blanket under the hood. I'm glad I was wrong; no car should be without that. Replies to this message: prdm (Dec 31, 2005 11:45 am)

#22 of 82 roof racks? by marlap Feb 02, 2006 (5:50 am)
Hi i have a 2005 maxx ls and was interested in putting a roof rack on top basically just for looks. Can anyone recommend a good one? so far i really am enjoying my car had it about a 2 weeks now. I wonder why don't see more of them on the road? I live in S.C. and have only seen one to date. Replies to this message: pao (Feb 02, 2006 8:32 am)
