    Help! starter stuck?

    Thank you for the quick comeback. I used to restore antique cars that were stored over the winter in MN that had the same problem. I used to take a long wood dowel, put it against the starter and hit it with a mallet. WELL, the starter turned over and off I went. Quick fix, but could be a...

    ABS Warning light on my 2003

    I guess that wasn't a good idea. I guess I will have to take it out and wait to get it remanufactured. Thanks for your prompt response! Bill

    Sliding seat on C5

    Just purchased a 1998 Convertible in Texas. Very impressed with what great condition they are, no rust or corrison. I am from Minnesota. The drivers seat, power, when you hit the brakes it slides about 3/4" to 1" forward. Funny feeling. Any ideas. Happy Thanksgiving! :)
