ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is a combination of TC (Traction Control) and the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) assisting the driver in conditions where wheel slippage occurs.
1) The cars senses that the wheels are slipping on the road. This can be caused by conditions such as rain, snow, or uneven road surfaces. The driver can also make maneuvers that cause ESC/ TC to activate.
2) Due to the wheel slippage, TC usage the ABS (Anti Lock Brake System) to assist the driver in regaining traction by applying the ABS system. ESC reduces the engine power to allow better traction to be reestablished.
3) The HHR SS has a feature to turn these systems off. In certain conditions, wheel slippage (caused by the driver or conditions) is intentional and the reduction of engine power would not be beneficial.
In short, when you activate "ESC OFF", the TC AND ESC are no longer functioning on the car, allowing the wheels to slip after traction is lost.
Check your owners manual for further information.

Where is the oil filter on a 2008 hhr ss?
You access the oil filter from under the hood. On the front right side of the engine, about half way down, locate a 3 1\2 to 4" round black circular cap with (I think it's 30 or 32mm) "nut" on top. Unscrew the cap. The filter will come out with the cap. The filter is a cartridge style filter.
