Howdy,
My friend and I both have 2017 2.0 Camaro's.
We live in southern Alberta with an elevation of about 3600 feet. We bought our cars to use year round as daily users, we both park outside and mine is unplugged (no block heater) but my friend plugs in and uses his block heater. So they get cold.......
We have now both experienced the same problem...............
Using the remote start the car starts ok but runs for about 4 minutes only - outside temp is -15C to -25C. Then pressing the start button the car turns over but doesn't start.............wait and try again - it starts and the engine light comes on!!
At the dealership they suspect gas got into the oil somehow and that's where they are at........more tests today............any sensible ideas? Anybody else had this problem?
Thanks
Tankman.
