06 hummer h3 throws a code for something once a year at this point. I got it with 30k miles and manual transmission so i was happy, but dang. I know its 14 years old at this point but sometimes just cant beat it lol.
First year i bought it, it threw a code for a common sensor. Ended up changing all 3 of these quick guys and it still had it. Ended up being a part named 3 different things that mo one guesses for that. Did it myself, was good.
Two years later code for extra air in intake. Knew it was probably intake gasket, but the shop said they didnt see any leaks when they went to do the smoke test. So replaced the exhaust manifold (caused by 02 sensor on the manifold). Still throwing codes and lo and behold they finally found the leak, small as it was, was the intake gasket.
This year its thermostat. After some finger gymnastics, got it changed. After taking it to the lake for some kayaking, code cleared. Take it to get inspection junk done, apparently throws a code for the 2 sensors mentioned in that first year lol. Of course they said it hesitated to start, so not sure there, could just be bad battery terminal on start but I'm pretty tired of it being one thing or another with random little stupid sensors.

I do hate working on cars though.
