Here is a kit.

Can be done much cheaper if you are willing to source your own mirror and do a little wiring.

My '10 SS L99 started throwing Check Engine & Check Suspension warning lights. It was also shifting rough and shaking like crazy. Scan found low voltage and low communication codes which were cleared according to my mechanic. Along with another oil change I found today to be very productive. Still no mechanical repairs needed on my SS after almost 15 years and 72,000 miles.

If you don’t use on star and don’t have auto dimming. There are plenty of cheap used ones to be had on eBay. GM used that style of mirror in a lot of cars.

On star has been disabled in the 5th gen no longer in service i may just look for a cool billet mirror..either way thanks for the info

Replaced the a/c evap temp sensor under the passenger side of the dash. Apparently it controls when the compressor kicks on and off. Quick 2 minute job. $17 part.

Doubt it'll change anything but I'm willing to try anything as I chase down the inconsistent a/c on my Camaro.

Took it to work today. I was on the phone on my ride in explaining to my buddy that even though I occasionally think of selling it, its paid off, only 75k miles, and its been the most reliable car ive ever owned. Then i noticed the coolant leak dripping as I pulled into my parking spot lol. I already found the leak, its the small hose coming off the radiator cap, it rubbed against the intake and wore a hole. Easy fix, gonna pick up some hose on lunch and swap it out. Think ill have to burp the system or ill be ok because its the hose way up top? Its not the one my finger is on, its the one next to it that im pointing to

Will be fine just to add coolant. for the minimal amout youve lost shouldnt think it would be a worry at all.

Swap the hose quickly and you will be fine. That line shouldn't leak much coolant when you swap it anyways.

Thats what I was thinking... Hopefully I can sneak out during lunch and grab a piece of hose at one of the local spot and then top it off.

Arogg · 03-13-2024, 09:07 AM

would any of you happen to know the size of the hose so I can pick one up without having to remove mine first? They get a little weird when I work on my car in the parking lot at work so I wanna make it as quick as possible after hours

The_bald_eagle_machine · 03-13-2024, 09:42 AM

It is 1/4" hose. I think the factory hose is molded, so if you just buy standard hose you might need a little bit longer hose. I swapped to silicone on my car, but I still have my old hose if you want it I could send it to you.

I appreciate it! I already have it all apart in my work parking lot so ill just run to the parts store for some standard hose on lunch. Truly appreciate the offer though.
