ChevyMgr, is there a TSB out on the boost gauge light flicker?

If they all are doing it, then clearly this is a factory installed upgrade.....

I was about to say the same thing, it's not a problem, it's an option!

Mine doesn't ficker (that I've noticed) but it clearly is rotated clockwise from vertical about an hour on the clock.

The Stealership said they have to see it do the flickering then figure out why it is doing it..Instead of just changing the damn thing out...My ? to the people at the Stealership is this? How you going to see a light flickering if you look at it during the daylight and the lights arent on? WOW now thats a concept? 3rd time I've had it in for the same issue? What are my options?

They changed mine out and it still flickers.

Mine flickers too.. Stupid dealer can only diagnose things that are totally broken. I wanted to contact autometer to see if they were going to make gauges that would match. I'd love and oil psi gauge. Bulb might be loose too, I am sure the dealer can nail it down AFTER it's broken...

Well I got the fix for everyone:
From Brian Brown the head Honcho for the build:
We are on it. The fix is below.

Yes,
There is a new IBCM calibration available that will fix the problem on both HHR and Cobalt. We need to ensure the dealers are aware of this issue and the new calibration. I will have Tom Utter and Nathan Sumner work with Tim and Tom.

Regards,
Brandon S. Vivian
HHR SS & Cobalt SS PEM and LDE

Mines doing the same thing, sounds like a factory problem.
