Someone totaled my 06 LT in the parking lot this week so I bought a 08SS. I'm familiar with the HHR issues but not the SS specific issues. What should I look out for and what preventive maintenance should I do?

Most of the SS is the same car other than the engine/turbo stuff...Things you want to look for are mostly boost issues...boost leaks, bypass valve working properly...

How do I know if I have a leak? Will it throw a code if the bypass valve isn't working?
