What Our Members Are Saying about the Powertrain of the 2008 Chevrolet Impala

2008 Chevrolet Impala Powertrain: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Sedan 233-horsepower 3.9L V6
4-speed automatic FWD
The 3900 V6 is very responsive and climbs hills effertlessly. The engine idles very smooth and is easy to live with on a daily basis. The old 4 speed automatic always shifts on time and is smooth. see full Chevrolet Impala review
2007 4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed automatic FWD
Nice smooth power-band with lots of low range torque, VVT really helps. see full Chevrolet Impala review
2008 Chevrolet Impala Powertrain: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Sedan 233-horsepower 3.9L V6
4-speed automatic FWD
The transmission does not engage immediately after cornering or during hard acceleration. When it does you can hear and feel a loud clunking noise coming from the powertrain. Often times this also causes the tires to "chirp". see full Chevrolet Impala review
2007 4dr Sedan 233-horsepower 3.9L V6
4-speed automatic FWD
Very quick tranny slipps. see full Chevrolet Impala review
2007 4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6
