I posted a thread on a few days ago on what I perceived was the infamous Gen II CHUGGLE. Lots of back and fourth and good info.
But I decided to call the service manager at the dealer I have purchased 3 Volt's from and over 25 other vehicles over the decades.
He found an "Informational Bulletin" not a TSB on something GM calls "ENGINE FLARE" and he read it to me over the phone. It starts with the usual - The customer may complain..... by the end it states it's a NORMAL operational condition on the Gen II Volt and the 5ET50 operating between it's five modes. Of course in between the Customer and Normal Operations were many situations when the anomaly can occur i.e. DRIVING IN LOW, USING PADDLES, STEADY STATE SPEEDS, TEMPERTURE etc.......
So unless it get's worse it seems to be a normal operating condition and I'm willing to leave it at that. Maybe some can find a post a copy of this Informational Bulletin for our edification.
