So, she's fixed, and I'll tell you what the invoice says. The total shown pre-warranty was over $700, but we don't get that copy LOL. I paid nuttin, so the new warranty is over half paid for now.
I take Mitzi to Hardin Buick Pontiac GMC, and they love the car, know me by name, make good coffee, and are prompt and courteous. Their dealership had been yanked a year ago, but they kept the service department going, and now the dealership has just been reinstated. Heck of a bunch of people.
Causes are listed as:
2-3 Shift Solenoids Failed
K6556 Wiring Harness and/or solenoid 2 3 shift
1 12614970 Sensor
P0106 Map Sensor Failed
J6370 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Replacement
98260WGMPP
2 24207236 Valve ASM
10 88861003B Dextron-6
So, is this in line with what you folks were thinking?
And, are these 2 problems unrelated or related?
Always fun to play stump the HHR gurus here!!

Glad they were able to fix it right Cheri. Totally unrelated to what I researched and posted. Interesting though, the shift sol's are trans related and certainly would cause your jerking symptom. MAF sensor is fuel/emissions related. First thought was how likely would 2 totally unrelated parts fail at once? Im sure the MAF failure would impair the driveability as well so whatyagonnado? It's fixed! hope you are feeling better as well.

gm-auto-mall.com is where we went. (Bob Pion Pontiac Buick GMC Truck) 413-5980-8377.
My hubby looked at a lot of options, but this guy offered the best that was genuine GM. You still had to have the full factory warranty running on your car to get it. I chose Major Guard, 60 mos/40000 mi, since I don't drive mine much, and chose zero deductible.
