What Did You Do To Your HHR Today?
This looks like a great deal but the 'compatibility chart' reads: 'This part is not compatible with 2011 Chevrolet HHR LS Wagon 4-Door 2.2L 2198CC 134Cu. In. l4 FLEX DOHC Naturally Aspirated.'

CHECK YOUR MATS FOLKS.
Yikes--my heavy duty all weather floor mat came loose from the retaining hook, and scooted forward just enough to hook on the gas pedal at WOT.
I pulled down a ramp onto the highway, and had to pour on the coal to merge into tight traffic...YIKES the throttle stuck down and I almost got to
have a BMW as a hood ornament...I didn't know at first what was happening, and couldn't risk killing the switch in fast moving traffic.
I just had to put my elbows up and drive like a nut case until I could get in a spot to reach down and pull the pedal up.( and pull over to change my pants)

I have the OE carpeted mats, besides the retaining hole, they look like porcupine skin on the underside with spikes. They are not moving.
Went over to visit with fastsuv, he has almost got the transmission out of Oldblue, it’s nice he has a lift and string sons to help him extract it.

What can do it put long 1/8" pop rivets (it's called the reach) in them so the "bumps" go a little deeper into the carpet. It does help.
Can I just say I had to share this with all my friends that were with me when I just purchased my HHR last week, and ALL of them laughed HISTERICALLY! Most have said that if a Tinder Date had sat down in the car and farted in their HHR, that it would be grounds for a quick pull over and drop off at the nearest curb. Especially if there's not been any nookie beforehand. lol!!! Thanks for sharing that TMI It was good for a few laughs.
Today, so far, (I'm sure many or most of you have already done this, but pardon I'm a new owner)... I have replaced the original cloth fresh air intake hose with a much nicer and much more flexible poly pipe. First glance under the hood, and I immediately knew that the ridiculous cloth one had to go!

(ADD-ON) For other new owners, I guess I could have made a 2 minute video showing how easy it is to remove the staples and the glue, and twist on a new hose right in the place of the other two rubber end fittings. The only simple mod to the rubber I had to make was to make 6 slightly V-Shaped slits in the glued male side of the rubber fender piece, so that it could compress about 1/4" smaller to fit snugly inside of the new poly tube. Then I just added a little marine sealant before I screwed it in to secure it a little better. Took about 15 minutes total.
