Thanks for the links Herc Man! Your second link about the liability against GM interested me. My '01 3100 GP "ticks" on every start-up after sitting an hour or more. I don't like that. Like I posted earlier, I had a GM mechanic tell me that's no problem and not to worry, but after reading your links you posted, I'm wondering if the GM mechanic was "told" to say that. My GP is past warranty now, and this news concerns me as I only have 49,000 miles on the car. Thanks again for the news Herc Man. Keep us posted.

I've done some more searching to see if I could find an outcome but I have been unsuccessful.
