    No Memory

    Lately my C-5 cannot hold the memory when I set it. I end up re-adjusting my seat all the time so I can drive in a comfortable position. Years ago I had an issue with bad grounds everywhere which after cleaning them up eliminated all my issues at that time. But thats been a few years ago...

    Rumbling noise

    Don't know how best to describe the change of sound from my engine but it has developed a sound like what you might describe as all cylinders are slightly not firing 100%. It still responds well as far as acceleration but it doesn't sound normal. I have just over 92k miles and poured some...

    Noisy Door opening

    My C-5 has developed sort of low decibel buzzing noise from the drivers door when I hit the un-lock on my key fob. Sometimes it's louder than the previous time I unlocked the door and it doesn't do it every time. The door does un-lock every time and I can't say it does it when it's colder...

    Summer only?

    Been thinking about purchasing a 2019 Stingray but I notice it states "Summer Only" tires on the vehicle description. So when winters comes around I'm not supposed to drive my 60K car? I find it perplexing that I see so few new Corvettes on the streets even when the weather is nice. So Chevrolet...

    News: GM To Stop Taking Orders on 2018 Corvettes in November

    2018 2019? I'm not quite clear on what GM is doing with the 2018-2019 Corvette. I went to our local dealership today to look at a 2018 Corvette. All they had were 2017, 7 or 8 of them. Only one was a Stingray. The rest were those really High Horse Power ones. Couldn't get a straight answer from...

    Help! C-5 Oil Pressure at 130?

    My DIC says my oil pressure is 130lb's. Totally impossible but that's what it says. I'm starting here for information on where to start looking to fix this. Other than that my C-5 has been running pretty well at 90k+ miles, now that my ground issue's seem to be fixed. Up-date...

    Continenetal DWS tire failures

    I put a set Continental DWS tires on my C-5 4 years or so ago. I've been really happy with them. At about 20,000 miles one of rears went flat immediately on the on ramp to the freeway. I didn't see anything I might have run over. Seeing as how had to keep driving on it, that tire was ruined. I...

    drivers seat has a mind of it's own

    I've got a problem with my drivers seat not responding to the set button. Pushing the set button for the drivers seat after starting my C-5 has no effect no matter how many times I try. Whether it be in park, driving or whatever. It' goes to whatever position it feels like leaving me to have to...

    Intermittant Key Fob response

    Works OK so far Got my new (well sort of new) key fob with the passive switch and it works fine. Now I've got two that I can rely on for now. Actually the one I just got looks new like it had hardly been used. Whew! Now that I have that fixed a new problem has arose. Setting the drivers seat...

    Intermittant Key Fob response

    Wouldn't you know Who woulda thought that one of my original key fobs that I had sittin on my work bench for many years, after dusting it off, putting in a new battery (which stopped working many years ago) has decided to start working again. Hmmmmm. Stranger things have happened but I guess...

    Intermittant Key Fob response

    cold solder The other two original fobs stopped working and from what I understood at the time was that some parts of in the fob were cold soldered (?) and it becomes a loose connection. I still have one so maybe just for curiosity sake I'll try to program it as fob #2 and see what happens...

    Intermittant Key Fob response

    Yeah, could be You know maybe your right about that. My original ones had the passive switch and years ago they failed so I bought a replacement (without the passive switch)at a chevy dealer believing what they said it was the right replacement. But you know it seems as though the new one...

    Intermittant Key Fob response

    No Passive switch Thanks for getting back to me but I have no passive switch on my key fob and I installed a new battery in it when I first bought it a few weeks ago. Guess I better check the receiver for the fob that sits just behind the drivers seat I believe. I don't know, maybe there's a...

    Intermittant Key Fob response

    The key fob for my 99' C-5 unlocks the doors intermittently. I bought a new GM key fob with a new battery, programed it but still the lock/unlock works when it wants to no matter how close or where I'm standing. Hmmmmmmm. I had this problem a while back but it seemed to clear up on it's own...

    5 messages on DIC

    dadaroo will be missed Thanks to dadaroo I believe my issue related to all the alarm codes of all sorts that came up on the DIC when the passenger door was opened have ended. I carefully pulled out the wiring harness that goes to the passenger door, dis-connected both connectors and found in...
