Probably. It's the 2.4L 4cyl they released new for that year...phasing that motor out by 2013. If that doesn't speak volumes, I don't know what does.
Dealer keeps saying that the timing guides get trashed, and that the rings "line up" and burn oil at a quart every 1000 miles. They know it's a half-assed answer, but all that Chevy has released to this point.
