Ya man, I havent reset mine in a good year. My car is even quieter now, it idles smoother and quieter, and when I floor it from say 40 in 3rd, there is alot more power, and I dont have that terrible exaust noise any more. Also, low end power is way up, its weird that something that simple can make such a difference.
Probably not, my bad. My entire weekend is JP'ed so, I dont think I will have the time
What you going to do?
Oh and I side question. One of the reasons I reset my battery was because I was out with my boy, and we raced a modded Z06 corvette and a SRT-4 (I lost to both) (Z06 was insane fast, like I floored first, and he passed me in less then a second LOL) (SRT4 was much closer, but he pulld a good car and a half) Well after that, I was just cruising and out of nowhere, I looked down where the MPG and milage show, and it said "ENGINE PWR REDUCED" and my car was acting all fucked up, and I could hit hte pedle, and the RPM's wouldnt go up. I ended up getting to a light and had to shut my car off like 3 times, the 3rd time I waited like a minute before it went away. Now its acting fine, I just dont know what would have caused that. I did pull a CEL from it, but I dont remember what it was, I think it was like P0060 or something.

your car went into LIMP MODE, it was a good thing you cleaned of the TB & reset the computer, you should be fine. i'm not exactly sure one why it would do something like that but that's exactly what it sounds like.
hey man, yea i got your text. i sent him a text the other day, he hasn't replied. i'm hoping he'll be able to make it. did you see that i changed the time?

It has me contemplating stripping the car down now or not. they're actually calling for snow showers tonight and tomorrow night, so I might go ahead and get it ready for winter.

good morning man, yea it is very cold out. i dropped the SS/SC off at the dealership this morning, hopefully they'll have it in today. they are replacing the timing chain tensioner and checking out my shifter & the backing of driver seat. the cap on the shifter (with the shift pattern engraved on it) popped off last week, so i'm seeing if that is a "warranty" part and maybe get a new shifter. and when i'm sitting in my driver seat in my right shoulder blade/rim area the metal framing of the seat is sticking out a little bit (it happened on my Cobalt LS and they replaced the back of the seat) so i'm hoping they'll order that. i just really want my seat back replaced, as for the shifter i'm considering buying a short shifter anyways but if they replace it then i'll just hold off on that.

Got a good point on that there. Yeah it must be a GM thing with always needing to be repaired. Almost seems like they're turning into fords lol. in 4 weeks I had a crank position sensor go bad, a coolant temperature switch go bad, and a check engine light for my rear o2 sensor.
