Mikey, I think the issue effects some differently. As I have stated in previous posts (much to the disbelief of some) I NEVER had a check engine light come on in the 2000 miles I drove it on my roadtrip which is when it happened. I got the OnStar report email containing the warning, a constant rough idle, and when I called OnStar to run a diagnostic, all they could say was it showed an "engine misfire code and an emissions isue."

Yup. I remember you saying that. That's why I asked. I have a feeling I may finally be coming down with it, which doesnt make much sense considering mine was belt after the supposed date range. I would like to just blow it off and say it's because the new built may be slipping, but I've driving almost 1000 miles since then and I think that's more then enough for a new belt to wear in. I'll put the OBD scanner to it later tonight and see what it comes back with. That's ALL I need now right

Yeah, but keep in mind, we also drive our H3 more the probably anybody else on this forum. In 16 months I have put 30k miles on it. That's ALOT of driving. If anybody we are the test dummies lol. I take immaculate care of my vehicles I own and notice things most people wouldn't, and 99% of the time I'm right on the money with it comes to discovering and diagnosing repairs. With the exception of this on-going differential issue, I've been right every time. Now that I'm driving 100 miles a day to and from work, I'll really be working this baby lol.

I'll have to post a follow-up later and see if I'm getting any codes back. I surely hope not. At least I can bring it in to HummerMike now. I'll probably be his first customer lol.
