I'd never offroad the G6... That was my Lumina!
No time frame, yet... They'd just filled out the paper work to order the new engine on monday, lol.
It's most likely coming from the US, so at least a month... And that's probably not counting customs.

I didn't even have to do any arguing or convincing or begging! lol.
Same goes for getting the rental...
Once the motor comes in, it probably won't take TOO long to get done, because they probably don't want to pay for the rental any longer than they have to

They will probably yank your motor out now and wait for the new one to come in so they have it prepped and ready to go for a drop in!!

It hasn't moved, lol.
They'll probably do it all in one shot.
I just hope they're gentle on the wires up front

ya they'll do it in one shot so they can still move ur blazer around the shop if they need to. ik all the cars that have to wait for parts at the lexus dealership i work at sit out in the back line.

I didn't get any smoke... The only sign anything went wrong, was oil leaking down...
The top end of my truck is still clean.
Then I took the skid plate off...
