Re: MAJOR Problems - Need Help Desperately
The title of your post is offensive.
Imagine how if you were someone looking to purchase a HUMMER and you came across a post like this. Would it not make you take a second thought about purchasing one?
Now you are telling us that you had an aftermarket device installed on your vehicle (a few months ago), and you are running it with fuel that the vehicle is not designed for.
I would have done a hell of alot more research before I brought an expensive vehicle into my country.
A troll is someone who comes on to a forum like this and makes inflamatory statements in order to discredit a product.
My point is...the HUMMER is not the issue. If you are not a troll, I apologize sincerely.....if you are, well....you know what to do.
Vin numbers mean nothing to me, I have no way of checking to see if you are real.
You need to find someone who is willing to work with you and GM in getting your vehicle working again.
You could change the title of your thread....makes you sound like a mama's boi.

I will change this title somehowRe: MAJOR Problems - Need Help Desperately
Ok HummBebe, here we go ...
1. I agree that the title of this thread is a bit too much. I did it purposely so that I could get attention. How would you feel if the help you need for something was 6 thousand miles away? I could not find it but If someone can tell me how, I will change the title to - Major Problem Overseas, Need Help - or something like that.
I am also willing to bet that some people read the posts and are thinking: ?Man, this guy is F&?%(&? .
2. I have the problem with the car for about 3 weeks and here, at this forum, was by far the best help I got. I took it to 3 mechanics and called another couple in Sao Paulo. I contemplated bringing someone from the US to work in the car. This will get very expensive. By the way, after import duties, this car is over US$ 60.000 here. I am also afraid of loosing a lot of money.
3. As far as why importing a car (any car) ? that is a personal decision. I love my H3. No intention to discredit at all. Actually, we can all live well and drive ford pintos ? we can all survive with that. Why do spend money in Hummers, or any other car? Because we like them and they make us feel good, somehow. At least that?s my opinion.
4. I don?t believe that anybody will give up on buying an H3 because some guy in Brazil had problems. If they do, I would say that is a very stupid reason for not purchasing it.
5. Mama?s boy is offensive. You don?t need that to make a point.

Making things clear
What can you do? The help I got here was GREAT. I am just waiting for a reply from pcmforless and from the dealer where the car was originally purchased.
I will also try to cover everything before I start bringing parts from the US. It takes time and money.
I called Hummer in the US. There is no Hummer office in Brazil. They gave me GM’s phone number here. I called both commercial and the tech depts. At GM and they just told me that Hummers are neither represented nor supported here.
I want to make one thing clear: I don’t blame GM for not having service for this car here. It make no sense for them and I knew that when I bought the H3. I took my chances ...

Re: MAJOR Problems - Need Help Desperately
just a little edit towards my above post. If the pcm is comparable with the bcm i think it would weigh less that a pound or around there. I think the pcm has a heatsink or something so then it may weight a bit more.
