The sensor in one wheel may be in need of relacement. Does it say which tire is the issue?(Most do)
roadrunner from United States a month ago
When it is in alarm it does not show which tire is low, this drives me crazy. Why did they did this? they have trouble with the sensor computer not the senders. Gives alerts on the highway but no low tire.

Stabilitrak/Reduced engine power

2012 Chevrolet Camaro V6 /3.6L 126000 miles
The car will crank, but immediately goes into limp mode with Service Stabilitrak/Reduced Engine Power flashing on the dash. It also does not do anything when you press the gas. I have tried replacing the throttle body, gas pedal with the position sensor, and checked all fuses. The only other thing would be the ECM, but a friend of mine tested the ECM and said it was fine.

Engine failure and fume

1995 Chevrolet Camaro 100000 miles
The engine starts but there is too much fuel moving to the cylinders, and it is fuming way too much, black fume suffocating the engine. I've changed the refrigerant sensor, it worked properly for an hour and the problem returned. I have then installed the original one, it worked fine for a while and failed once more. When it fails, the rpm tachometer drives crazy.

You need to replace your Camaro's distributor; if it is from the 3rd or 4th generation of this model, it is an agency failure. When you have reached 75000 miles travelled, you will need to change the distributor, and I recommend you a MSD 8381, I now have one of those and it the car is working much better than before.

Check the MAF or MAP sensor, which is in charge of mixing the air with the fuel. When this sensor fails, black fume is released because of the raw fuel.

It won't start

1997 Chevrolet Camaro 76000 miles
My Camaro z28, 1997 suddenly does not start. The engine begins running but won't finally start working. Coils and the crankshaft sensor have been checked but everything seems to be alright. There is no spark in the spark plugs, and I was told it is the computer that is failing.

Buddy, I have a Camaro with exactly the same problem and, effectively, it turned out being a failure in the computer prom.

Engine and Transmission Problems

2011 Chevrolet Camaro V6, 3.6L LFX 80000 miles
Hello together, I owned a Chevrolet Camaro in September 2022 and just got problems over problems since February 2023. I hears unusal noises, coming out of my engine. I thought it would be a connecting rod bearing damage. Nobody wanted to fix the engine. After weeks of search, i just found a workshop who want to fix it. The workshop replaced my timing chain, cause they thought it will solve the problem. After picking up my car and driving only like 20 miles, the car wouldnt start anymore. After that the workshop find out that the crankshaft is broken and i also got a connecting rod bearing d… Read complete

There is no spark

1997 Chevrolet Camaro 164000 miles
There is no spark. I've already checked the optispark and crankshaft sensor and they are both alright. The coil and ignition switch are working properly just as well. What might it be? Does the crankshaft sensor send the signal to the optispark, then to the ignition switch and finally to the coil or how does it work?
