Ok I am happy to report that I received my car and have not reported a single issue. I have run it somewhat hard trying to make sure everything is in working order. What I was told from the advisor was that the technician that did the original work did not tighten down a hose correctly thus causing my problems (I think one of you mentioned that here so kudos ) Also the radiator fluid smell was caused because someone in the shop (advisor's words not mine) put a radiator cap of an SL2 on my car by mistake causing a leak. So far the car feels like its running well, and if anything, feels a little more brisk. Thanks for letting me rant on this board. I know some of you thought ill of me for crying "lemmon law" but please put yourself in my shoes, a problem that goes on for months with dealerships giving me answers ranging from "its just something you'll have to learn to live with" to "We're not sure what it is but if we hear somethin we'll give you a call". For those that provided help, it is greatly appreciated. Hopefully I won't have anymore trouble from this car because it is one of the most enjoyable (from a fun to drive aspect) cars I've had but also at the same time its given me more problems than any other car which includes an 85 cavalier (boxy) 88 Buick, 97 and 00 chevy.
