spirited driver

08 2LT with 2500 miles. On the engine. Original engine blew at 43,000... New motor in and doing fine.

Mine now has 129,000 miles on it. Still not a single problem whatsoever with it. I bought mine with 90K miles and still love it! Only routine things have been done. The only thing I don't like is that it is not at all good in the snow, but I guess what do you expect from a little car...

07 2 lt. 61,000 miles and runs well. I need to replace front wheel bearings though. I hope to get 200,000 out of it. We shall see.

Lucky enough to just recently buy a 2006 2LT with only 30,600 miles on it. (Lots better than the one with 128k on it, although that one was $3,500 cheaper....)

Lovin' it so far. It seems the first thing that might come up is front brakes around 45-50k?

Blue Lightning

32000 miles on my Blue Lightning. Got him August 2009 so at this point a little over a year and a half. Usual oil changes (I got a maintenance package that pays for oil changes and tire rotations for up to 36000 miles. Changed out my cabin air filter at 29000 miles myself. Did my 4 wheel alignment at 15000 miles. Only one major problem happened: the key got stuck in the ignition at 27000 miles with my Blue running. Called GM, had a tow truck come out to pick Blue, and as a result, the steering column was replaced. One minor problem is that right after that, the turn signal would not click off. Another minor problem: the remote broke after dropping it on the ground. The battery housing popped off the remote. All issues fixed under warranty.

Coming up next on the maintenance schedule: Getting the fuel injectors cleaned as part of the maintence schedule.

UPDATE: I posted on this thread a while ago and thought Id give an update. My 06 2.4, which was purchased in 05, now has 251000 on it. No, thats not a typo - two hundred fifty one thousand. I have replaced a few things - one wheel bearing, many sets of tires, rotors and pads a couple times, ecu and harness needed cleaned and reset, and of course the end links on the stabilizer.

She still runs strong, with a few quirks - the fan for the ac is noisy, the right headlight works only if you hit it right above the lens with your fist, sometimes the driver's door speaker doesn't work....

All little quirks I can live with.


Oh - and I just changed the spark plugs last week for the first time, and I only change the oil when the display tells me to....and only with conventional 5w30.....My other cars I change every 3000 miles....the HHR averages 10000 - 15000 per change.....seems happy to me

Right on!

105,000 on my 07 LT 2.4. Bought her with 24,000 and knew the previous owner. Has only had pennzoil 5w-30 every 3000 miles with a fram oil filter her entire life (although recent research has told me this is not the best choice). She's been in two minor wrecks and was fixed by the chevy dealership both times (all cosmetic). Besides regular maintenance, just replaced fuel pump. Averaged 27 mpg before fuel pump issues, back to 27 now that I fixed it. Still running strong, but needs new struts.

*note: replaced fuel pump with one out of a salvage vehicle. only cost me 40 bucks. . . we'll see how long that lasts
