Just my $0.02 worth...I doubt that all 4 speakers would decide to die at the same time. I would suspect the head unit itself, or on a long shot, the antenna connection or speaker harness somehow worked itself loose.

I have a late build 2001. I'm on my third battery, however I don't drive it in the winter, and my previous storage situation didn't always allow me to get a charger on it every week during the winter. I'm certain that the batteries would have lasted longer had the car been driven daily...

A couple of summers ago, I installed a CLB on my '01 coupe. I think that I have reasonable mechanical skills, and installed it properly. Within a day or two I started having problems. When turning the steering wheel, I got a "clicking" or "ratcheting" noise. It appeared that the CLB was not...

From what I've heard, they all do this, as the alternator "cycles". When it's dark out, and I leave my house for work with the headlights on, I can predict within 2-3 houses, where I'll be on the street, when it happens.

they're sold....................

And IIRC, the Firestones are the narrowest of the group. I would have only one reservation about the Firestones. A couple of years ago, my wife's Jaguar needed tires. I had heard a lot of positive comments about the SZ50, so I considered it to be on the "short list". I shopped around, and the...

A '96 Z-28 is my summer "DD". For the winter, I have an '05 GMC Canyon 4x4.

Actually, I think it was more for gas milage reasons, however I agree with your observation about how "thin" 5w30 looks, especially when it's hot. That being said, I'll stick with the 10w30 in the summer....

"Wish", as a matter of fact, that's where I bought my oil! I was hoping to get a gallon jug of the 0w-20, and then just 2 individual quarts, however they were out of stock on the 0w-20 gallons. I suppose I could have just bought 6 individual quarts, but surprisingly, with their pricing...

Evolution, in the first part of your response, you say that I should use 10w-30, as my garage doesn't get that cold. (Right now, it's about 20 degrees, but if the outside temp drops, so does the garage) In the next paragraph, you say to stick with the 5w-30. OK................

Ther are many varied opinions on the topic of winter storage. My opinion, one that has worked for the past 30 years, is to start the car and allow it to warm up, around every 3-4 weeks. I don't like the idea of gaskets drying out due to lack of oil, a/c compressor seals drying up for the same...

That's correct! I don't drive my 'Vette in the snow/salt/slush of western New York's winters.

Your avatar says you're in California...It doesn't get that cold there, except for recently, I'd run the 10/30 Mobil1. Iuse that in my C-5 for the summer, and change it to 5W/30 for "winter storage".

I have a set of CCW street classic wheels for sale. I decided to try something else on the car. The wheels are 17x9 and 18x10. The centers are a little unique, as they were the black anodized centers that are a regular CCW option, however they were then black powder coated for a deep, gloss...

I know that this is a really old post, but I was doing a "BBS" search... is there any crazy chance that they're still available??

I believe the 918 springs are the "beehive" springs, so there is definitely a correct way to orient these....

Pinky, it sounds like your battery(s) are fading on you, especially considering they're possibly 8 years old. Fichtner Chevrolet, 800-234-5284 was running a special on them in October for $34 each. Don't know if the sale is still on.... Good luck...

I recently heard through the grapevine that GoodYear is releasing the GS-D3 in a run-flat version. The bad news is that they're reported to be SERIOUS $$$. ( I just bought a set on Michelin ZPs for myself. Unfortunately, I haven't had time to get them mounted yet)
