Hey all, having a few issues with the new SS at the moment,
-When starting from cold, it seems to idle VERY high (over 1k, around 1200rpm I would say), once the cars warmed up it seems to settle itself back down again if I start it while the engines warm, I guess it would be worth while to note that when it does idle high cold the car (in particular the exhaust which is a 1.5" redback) seems to sound terrible..
-Coolant just dissappearing, going through stages where I fill the overflow up, check it a month later and need to re-fill it? But I park on concrete and have no visible coolant leaks on the ground (only oil from the rear main sigh.....) so I have no idea where it's going? Not sure whether coincidence on not but it seems to be worse at the disappearing act when I use my heaters more? Not sure..
If any of you other LS1 lovers could help me in the right direction to get these issues sorted that would be fantastic!
Cheers,
Nick
