The 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt is a compact car that was produced by General Motors from 2005 to 2010. It was offered in various trim levels, including the base model, LS, LT, and SS. It was available as a sedan or a coupe and was known for its affordable price, practical interior, and fuel efficiency. The Cobalt was powered by a variety of four-cylinder engines, including the 2.2L Ecotec and the 2.4L Ecotec, paired with a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. The 2008 model year saw the introduction of an updated grille and front fascia, as well as the introduction of the SS trim level, powered by a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, producing 205 horsepower. The Cobalt also featured a range of standard safety features, including anti-lock brakes, airbags, and traction control.

Despite its popularity, the Chevrolet Cobalt was ultimately discontinued in 2010 due to declining sales and concerns about its safety. In 2014, General Motors recalled millions of Cobalts and other vehicles due to faulty ignition switches, which could cause engines to stall and disable the airbags. This led to numerous lawsuits and investigations, highlighting the importance of maintaining and repairing vehicles according to manufacturer recommendations. While the Chevrolet Cobalt may no longer be in production, it remains a popular choice for budget-minded car buyers, and its service repair manual provides valuable information for owners who wish to maintain and repair their vehicles themselves. The manual contains detailed instructions, diagrams, and specifications for various repair procedures, making it an essential resource for DIY enthusiasts and professional mechanics.
