    No 1LT being built have to go to 2 LT for allocation

    What Rob says makes sense and, if true, its time to go find a dealer you can trust.

    Tachometer Red Line Changing

    I continue to have this issue. Last night I was driving 45 mph using cruise for a 20 mile section of road and the tach redline (it was actually yellow) sat around 5500 rpm almost the entire time. Got on the freeway at 80 and the redline went to 6500 occasionally dropping down and going yellow...

    8 speed trans

    I had the issue last month and went through what you are discussing. It seems to have resolved the problem.

    New to me C7 Questions

    Those are the two that charge fine for me when using multiple components on my phone. I have other cars that have the same issue you have. The power standard for USB changed at some point. You probably have the older, reduced power ports.

    New to me C7 Questions

    They are probably the older lower power plugs. I have a 17 and have no problem running GPS, playing music and charging using the plug in the center console. Never tried the ports behind the screen, which are the ports I think you are talking about.

    Grand Sport Service Rear Axle.

    Take it in and see if they will help you out. I had a door panel go bad one month outside the warranty and Chevy paid for 75% of the replacement.

    [ACCIDENT] C8 Corvette Stingray Goes For a Swim

    I just assumed that anyone that could do this to the car wouldn't be shy about doing it with three people in it!

    Recommendation Request for Vette-centric Techs

    Good luck with your C3. I loved my 77. Good luck in your quest to find a mechanic familiar with the older cars. They can be hard to find but once you do, they are worth their weight in gold.

    Question: Replacing the alternator

    437 for a rebuild kit plus time and effort versus $45 for one already rebuilt. Seems like a no brainer to me.

    Fuel additive

    I had the dealer recommend injector cleaning and posted about it here. I don't want to put words in his mouth, but my recollection is that GMJunkie responded that it wasn't necessary and to simply run a bottle of Techron through it when the oil is changed.

    Tachometer Red Line Changing

    TTT. No ideas? I‘ve done some reading where other people have had the same issue and the suspected culprit was the thermostat.

    Tachometer Red Line Changing

    I have a 2017 GS. Recently I've noticed that the red line for my tach has been changing on me. Starts low and then as the car warms up it moves to the 6500 mark. It will then drop down for a period of time and then go back to 6500. I drove for about 15 miles tonight and the car was...
