Yeah I am beginning to wonder too - although he may have two HHRs.

No mention of check engine light - which should come on with a p0301 code. and he didn't anwer the question I raised about it.

I'm out

OK, in your 2006 2.4 HHR , it was designed for AC Delco Iridium 41-103 plugs

Those Bosch plugs can foul and cause a misfire code.

I'm going to follow you.

Yes, I remember he has 2 HHRs.

Agree, it could be the non-ACDelco spark plugs. That's an easy theory to test.

Nah it was misfiring before I put the plugs in. Still does it

After you do what Oldblue suggested you need to do a compression and leakdown test.

Ok thanks for the info. I will check it out

Go to your "User CP" and set your notifications.

When you pull the plugs to do the compression test, double check them for differences between cylinders

It sounds like a hub problem, but to determine which one you need to use a OBDII code reader that will read more than just the basic engine codes - some suggestions are in the above thread.

Will so thank you:)
