Hello from Upstate New York

Just a hello from a newbie member.
I've been perusing the site for a couple weeks and thought I'd join in some of the festivities.
A couple weeks ago I purchased a pretty clean 2009 HHR (2LT I think) with 35K on the clock.
The dealer installed new tires when the previous owner traded it in.
So far I'm liking this little wagon , gets about double the fuel mileage as my last vehicle.
I've never had a vehicle with this many accessories , so I'm having fun with the gadgets and stereo.
I've been an Auto mechanic for about 40 years , so maybe I can help some folks out or add some insight from time to time.

Welcome to the site.

2LT's came with the FE3 suspension. Easiest way to tell is look in the glovebox at the RPO codes sticker. FE3 was a 2LT only option. If you have the FE1 listed, that was the LS or 1LT suspension.

Thanks all.
Firemangeorge , the code is FE3 , so I guess that's it.
I'm used to looking for the "J' codes on GM cars to look up correct brake parts.
See , we learn something new every day , thanks again.
Here's a quick shot of the car , the stickers messed me up thinking it was a "classic" model.
Apparently there is no such thing ......
