Has anyone else had to have the entire head replaced? I smell recall.

i have 14,250 miles on mine and about a week or so ago i started noticing a little bit of engine vibration when i stop. i have tried turning off the ac to see if it is just the extra pull on the engine at idle. it doesn't seem to matter whether ac is on or off. i have not had a check engine light come on - ever since i have had the h3. it doesn't seem to be getting worse, but it makes me nervous. i ordered a new fuel filter, as maybe it is full of crap from the sh*tty fuel we get here. mine was built in june of 2005 and i have done several oil changes.
are these the prelim symptoms that others have been experiencing? if so, i would like to prevent the problem before it is unfixable here locally.

F5 please let me know your wisdom!!!!! let me know what you recommend please.

That's a great map, we'll start a Cabo thread soon.

I like Cabo and Todas Santos, but I fly there and get a cheapo stick shift rental car.

Guess I need to be added to the list....................

Just got back from the dealer and need my head replaced as well. Don't have the VIN handy but I have an early year too so I guess my VIN falls into the early group. My experience is identical to everyone else, started running rough then the engine light came on. Called Onstar and they told me it was a misfire code and I needed to get it to the dealer. Brought it by today and he knew what to expect so he quickly put in on the computer to test and it came back bad head. Told me OK to drive it while they order the parts. Told me they've done about a dozen already and have 4 more in the hopper they are waiting to do. Said they've been pretty good getting the parts and usually have it done in a day and a half. I was keeping my fingers crossed mine was going to slip by.................

29,500 miles, auto, bought 11/05.

Time to call GM to see about them extending the warranty.....
