    Help! Could these things be related?

    I think I have had enough!!! I would like to first thank all the people that tried to help and you are all a great bunch of folks. I believe that I have reached the point where owning this C5 is no longer fun. The electrical gremlins have gotten the best of me and now that I have retired, I...

    Tachometer issue-very strange

    getting close I did some experimenting today and discovered that the capacitor is defiantly causing the engine not to start. I bypassed the capacitor and plugged the connector directly from the line coming out the dash into the distributor and the engine started. If the capacitor is plugged...

    oil change = low oil warning

    I searched the knowledge base here and it said that the oil capacity is 6 qts. I have 6 qts. in it now and the dip stick shows full, top of the range on the stick. I did change the filter with an AC delco filter that is original equipment. No leaks. I am going to let it sit for overnight and...

    oil change = low oil warning

    Why can't anything be easy when working on these C5's? I changed the oil today on my 2000 convertible after the % reached 25. I forgot that this car uses 6 qts. of oil when i picked up the 5 qt. jug of Mobil 1. I changed the oil without incident but when I started the car the low oil warning...

    Radiator hose change

    I am about to change both of my radiator hoses on my 2000 with 14k. The top hose looks very easy. I can not see the radiator end of the lower one. How is this accessed? If I take off both of the hoses, can I assume that most of the fluid will drain out? I need to know so when I figure the...

    Door rattle

    I have to say that the thing I like the least about my 2000 is the quality of the interior. Things just feel cheap. My daughter has a 2002 Camaro and the interiors are very similar in sight and feel.
