    This does not appear to be the same "mark" who posts here regularly because
    he is using a different I.P. number. This guy is trying to incite contempt
    for GM while using the same name as one of our regular posters.

    Perhaps, but is the issue pervasive? I have no idea, I only know of one
    person with the piston slap problem...a neighbor with a 1994 Lesabre with
    100K miles on it...which I can hear clearly in my house in the morning for
    several years now when he starts that thing up. I have read other posts
    here about the problem though. One had his engine replaced by GM (A 2000
    Malibu with the 3.1 engine I think). If true, it's too bad GM released
    engines with this defect given the plethora of consumer choices out there.
    Either way, it certainly can't help with competitive position and market
    share to have this sort of issue (and press). But to be honest, I don't
    know very many people that own GM vehicles these days. <sigh> So many of my
    friends, family and co-workers that used to buy GM are buying other brands
    now. :-(

    What "experts" are those who confuse knocking with piston slap?
