Description of the problem | My 2010 cc started fine. Within 1/2 mile i noticed a shimmy, i thought maybe it was a flat tire. Then i noticed a horrible smell along with heavy white smoke coming from my exhaust. Code reader stated the camshaft sensor was bad and caused misfire to 1 and 2 spark plugs. Purchased the sensor and new spark plugs with no solution. Per a gm mechanic, the head is warped or cracked or the gasket is bad. I have had this vehicle for 9 months. I am the second owner and it has 53000 miles, but i also paid good money and to have to spend $1200 on this is bs. |
