It was one week pld when i couldnt open the drivers side rear door. And have a really noisy rattle that drives me mad, took it back again to find out it has a new variable turbo system and this is noisy, they even have a software upgrade to try to hush it. GM say that it works so its fine. I am also fed up with the inconsistancy of the brochure as its pot luck what you get and dont. So wish i never bought it and have asked GM to take it back and they said no. start legal battle next week.
