Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2004 chevrolet colorado, new purchase, drove 568 miles engine idle eratically, engine light appeared and then engine stalled. took to dealer and they reprogrammed computer, since that i lost 1.6 mpg and engine will not idle until vehicle came to complete stop. engine rpms do not drop between shifts like it did before reprogramming and vehicle lunges when clutch is released if not carefull or give it extra time for the rpms to drop for a smooth engagement. and when you need to let off the gas pedal the car keeps going like you are still accelerating, especially in fourth gear, which can throw off timing and cause you to hit brakes to slow down or push clutch in to keep from going ahead at same speed until rpms fall, when i bought the vehicle, it did no of this , the dealer has made several attempts to correct but says the problem is with the gm program. and they can not do anything else for me.*ak
