To those who might say, "Well, chevy now recommends 40 weight oils for these cars," my response would be, "This is the same company that keeps using this pump that fails." |

I didn't know the oil pump was from a Cruze. Is this true for the LT4 in the CTS-V and Z06? If it is, then why are did the ZL1 oil pumps fail but not the CTS-V or Z06 oil pumps when they use the same oil? |

I am not si sure about the CTS-V, but the Z06 was a dry sump, so it would have never of had this issue.

Likely so few units in total with respect to the LT4 that GM knows it’s cheaper to repair a few cars while in warranty rather redesign the part. Once you’re out of warranty it’s your problem.
I don’t see the LT4 in any other future car. |
