I just had a cobalt as a rental last week in Phoenix damn they SUCK!!!!
Tell me about it, That car is a joke!
-
yeh It might be the Banjo bolt but im not sure which one it is....I searched and it does have a recall but Im not sure if they did the recall on mine.
I put the map back to stock (thanks to Shamar) and man....I thought there isnt much difference between Stock and Stage 1 until I drove my car yesterday with a Stock map. Stock is freaking sloowww!! LOL
Anyway Im not gonna get my car back until thursday or worst friday, Im driving a freaking Loaner Cobalt right now lol

My car is now on Renick Subaru and found out that the Turbo inlet have a minor Oil leak...they will replace it and Hopefully thats it, Also They are resurfacing the rotors and replacing the brake pads all covered by warranty!
Yaaay for me! lol
Thanks for the all the advice!

thanks guys, After doing an Oil change last night i took it for a spin, I boost and boost! and see if anything change on the sound of my turbo, power loss and any some kind of noise/feel hat I never enocunter before....Surprisingly nothing.
I took it again this morning and I did the same thing and everything is normal....I cleaned up some of the oil I can reach and only a Minor spot of oil I see where i wiped it from....Its the spot on the 2nd pic. Looks like its dripping from somewhere....Luckily there is no Oil leaking constantly like you'll see it all over the placeor on the floor. As you mention It does look like its been like it for awhile or since my last Oil change and just found out right now.
If someone can lend me a hand to look at it since I dont have any knowledge of taking things apart, that will be appreciated and will buy you lunch/beer for any troubles.
Other thing that got to my head is maybe I overfill it?
The book says 4.2 quarts and this is the 2nd time I put 4 3/4 quarts of oil...Will that be connected to this?
So Stage 1 map will be ok to take it to the dealership b4 they void my warranty?
Thanks guys, I need all the help/advice I can get before this thing gets worse!
I knew you guys been under the LEGACY car more than any other mechanic in the dealership and very knowledgeable than they are !!

Im thinking about taking this to the dealership (renick subaru) and have them look at it.....
Im running a Stage 1 by Infamous so If they found that they will void the warranty right? Should I give Shamar a ring and have my Stage 1 remove and put it back to stock??
The car runs fine, The turbo Sound/Spool normal just the oil leak Im scared about. The top of the turbo looks fine and dry, Just some greasy dirt looking on there but I dont think its oil at all, I lost 1 quart of oil after doing an oil change.
I dont redline, full throttle and drive crazy at all and this happen?

Im waiting for a Legacy Photography meet.
-
I want to sell my canon shit and get a
d90
Nikkor 18-200mm
Nikkor 12-24mm
Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G
Nikkon SB-400
I'd be set i think, too bad Canon's 18-200 is a piece of crap hahah
Nice set but you rather get SB-600
yes all AF-S works...
-
How you like the video function on the D90?
Its actually pretty nice feature, It just hard to manual focus sometime and the weight of the camera without a tripod is a PITA to shoot a video...qualitywise I love it....720p is enough to make me say wow to the Video.
I started from D40 to D80
and now D90.
-
So is the Photography meet a GO??
My Gear:
Nikon D90 + Grip
Nikon 18-105mm VR
Nikon 50mm 1.8
Sigma 105mm Macro
Tamron 17-35mm 2.8
Nikon Sb-600
and some crap.
