Welcome to the site JONG54 I have heard that the sensor needs cleaning especially with that oily air filter. I'm sure some one here knows the link to buy the cleaner. Welcome again.

Check if they are part of the emissions warranty

How did you get them to do this for you? Mine has been in now since the 21st of last month, and with an unknown return date it would be wonderful if I could get them to do this for me as well. My hybrid rental just ain't the SS.

This was offered to me and has to be approved by the regional service manager. They had me bring in a payment stub and gave me 2months of payments...
Id ask the service manager about it...

Question Brake Problem

I keep seeing threads about a brake start up problem. Can someone explain to me what that is. I have a 2008 SS.

It is for ONLY an automatic SS.

To correct a loss of vacuum at the brake booster (and thus, loss of brakes) when cold starting. I believe the fix is a booster pump added.
