Talk about useless! Like dbfruth said! My friends fight over who gets to put one of their drinks in it, and then the other has to hold theirs. Speaking of useless, did I mention the middle seat in the back? What size person other than an infant can fit in that? Seats 5? Yeah right! If we go on a roadtrip with more than 4 people, guess I'll have to take the Lumina. (Although that starts back with cupholders....)

ChevyMgr,
How can I get a copy of this, or direct the dealer to this information?

In a way it did. I was looking up something else on GMs site and came across the TSB. I also remember a user wanting this information so I posted it if others need it. It's an old TSB with upated information.

#PIP4520: Low Boost / Power And/Or DTC P0299 Or P0101 - keywords actuator boost CAC charge control cooler driveability DTC ECM engine gas lnf low maf MIL reduced reducedpwmde SES wastegate - (Nov 4, 2008)
Subject: Low Boost/Power and/or DTC P0299 or P0101
Models: 2008-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt SS Only
2008-2009 Chevrolet HHR SS Only

The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.
Condition/Concern:
A technician may encounter a vehicle with a low boost/power condition and/or DTC P0299 and or P0101 setting. This may be the result of a cracked or broken fitting at the turbocharger assembly.
Recommendation/Instructions:
It has been determined that the nipple for the turbocharger wastegate actuator may be damaged causing this condition. If this concern is noted please inspect the area on the underside of the turbo compressor housing for the wastegate actuator solenoid valve. The nipple (see CALLOUT #1) may have been damaged causing a loss of boost pressure. It may be necessary to remove the charge air duct for a closer inspection. See eSI "Turbocharger Wastegate Actuator Replacement" for solenoid replacement procedure.
Attachment 3979
This solenoid is available separate from the turbocharger and should be replaced as a sub assembly. Do not replace the turbocharger assembly.

Have you encountered a case for this TSB?
My dealer just ordered a replacement wastegate actuator.

Of course most HHRs we sell are non SS. I bet we haven't sold 15 or 20 of the SS models since their first release. I see more SS cobalts with drivability concerns, than any other SS models.
