      is that all in the front? one if the things i found on my car at 6k miles (my first self performed oil change 2 free dealership changes before that) was that the bolt were backing out around the bell housing, also 3 bolts leaving the lower motor mount loose.

      doubt its the same for you, but if all that noise is in the front, including the vibration. depending on what kind of vibration..

      from being in and under my car i would suspect either the sway bar, or the upper strut mounts.

      They had it 4 days. Gave me a rental on thier dime. They checked and replaced all kinds of stuff to include the strut and mounts. It seemed better when I first got it back but the vibration was really aparent (rental was an Aveo too) Then after a few days I noticed the rattle starting to come back. It all up front. The tech took a ride with me (same one that told me the vibration wasn't anything to worry about before and really couldn't "feel" it) Well I know how to make the worst of it so I had him do that and I still think he doesn't want to fix it. He said to have the tire balanced. OK fine next oil change we'll do that but I want the vibration gone.

      I've got warrenty left so I will use it and let them fix it. They know I will buy other cars from them so I am sure they will take care of me. (bought the Z06 there)

      I know the car isn't a high dollar car. But you don't have to put up with rattles and vibrations that aren't supposed to be there.

      After the warrenty is up I'll start tinkering with it. Untill then they get to pay for it.
