Replying to: mikeshouse4 (Nov 26, 2007 12:43 pm) 24 millimeter. You could use an adjustable wrench.

Replying to: mikeshouse4 (Nov 26, 2007 12:43 pm) I am sure the nut built into the top of all the GM Ecotec 2.2L engines is 1 1/4 inches (or close to 32 mm).

Replying to: harrisblack (Nov 26, 2007 1:21 pm) What kind of experience are you talking about. If you trade the vehicle in you can get a pro-rated amount back. The GM warranty is among the best, if not the best in the industry for coverage with no co-pays. You can shop different dealers for the warranty. You could buy a Chevy but then go to a Buick dealership and negotiate an extended warranty there for your Chevy. You could wait a year or two before having it added on if you want.
#109 of 133 Socket Wrench for Ecotec Engines by alternator Dec 08, 2007 (7:20 pm)
For do-it-yourselfers, the GM Ecotec engine requires a low-profile 1 1/4 inch socket to remove the plastic cap on top of the built-in oil filter. This tool is not easy to find.   However, Amazon.com is presently selling the "Lisle 14700 Oil Filter Wrench for GM 2.2L" for $8.94 --- shipping is free if you buy something else that makes your order total over $25 (the something else can be anything you were probably going to buy anyway --- such as say a computer printer ink cartridge.)
#110 of 133 LUBRICATION by mike8718 Dec 16, 2007 (6:00 am)
I have a 2007 Cobalt. I do my own oil changes. Are there fittings that need to be Lubricated, and if so, how often? Thanks for any help. Replies to this message: jtk152 (Dec 17, 2007 5:19 pm)

Replying to: mike8718 (Dec 16, 2007 6:00 am) There's no grease fittings Mike. I like to use silicone spray on the door seals and white lithium on hinges, etc, that's about it.
#112 of 133 Sunroof problems by justus3 Dec 18, 2007 (7:37 pm)
I have had nothing but problems so far with the sunroof on my 07 Cobalt LT. I have only had it since the end of June, and so far have had to take it in for an adjustment because it was leaking air. Now it rattles so much I can hardly stand it. I am just wondering what it will take to have it fixed properly. I love the car and have had no other problems aside from this. Has anyone else had any issues with their sunroof? Replies to this message: jtk152 (Dec 18, 2007 7:55 pm)
#113 of 133 Re: Sunroof problems [justus3] by jtk152 Dec 18, 2007 (7:55 pm)
Replying to: justus3 (Dec 18, 2007 7:37 pm) I'd just try another dealer service dept. You'll eventually get a Mr. Good Wrench that can fix it.
