2005 "classic"

[wdfourt]

Just got the car with 70000 or so miles. 2.2 Ecotech motor. I'm pretty conservative driver but got 19 mpg last tank ful around Phoenix obviously with A/C always on. Motor is very smooth for 4 cyl. Was expecting better mileage out of the thing. Drove a rental HHR all over the mountains of Colorado getting 30+ MPG all the time (with 2.2). Two different cars. One with 16000 and another with 50000 plus, both getting over 30 mpg.

Does have A/C issues with a switch in the dash according to the dealer that sold me the car. He is ordering a switch to replace the existing one.

Questions are three;

1 WHAT KIND OF MILEAGE ARE THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE SIMILAR CHEVY'S GETTING?

2 COULD THE A/C BE PULLING ABNORMALLY AND COMPRIMISING MY
MILEAGE?

3 COULD THERE BE SOME SORT OF RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PASS LOCK
SYSTEM AND THE REMOTE START (which i had the dealer install)AND
THE A/C?

Thanks for your time!

Did you resolve the a/c issue? If so, do you know the price of the switch?

Hi,

The dealer repaired/replaced the a/c control panel and charged 0$. I've read that the contacts can be cleaned however couldn't tell you where, sorry!!
