    Driver Seat Memory

    Hi there, I dont think its the memory as much as it may be a shorted seat adjustment switch. If the side seat bezel is moved or is not set correctly, it may hold the switch in place which will keep the motor energized. Take a look at that first. Allthebest, c4c5

    2014 Corvette to Use Aisin Eight-Speed Auto Before GM's 8A Arrives

    HI there, There are too many factors here. EPA mileage testing, powertrain development, validation of design and not to mention EMISSIONS validation of the driveline. Did it ever occur to the people at Autoweek or Motortrend that they can easily install the GM 8 speed automatic and NOT tell...

    Siphoning Gas from C5 & C6 + More

    Hi there, There are check valves to prevent backflow and siphoning is near impossible. C5 before the FFS fuel system would be much easier because you can just get under the car, disconnect one fuel line and gravity will allow it to flow out. C6, with the FFS is near impossible. Allthebest, c4c5

    Help! 2005 C6 Column Lock Motor

    HI there, The column lock system is controlled by its own dedicated module for 2005, and it is IN NO WAY working the same way as the c5 column lock system. 2005 Column lock system were pretty trouble free. I have had a few that had reverse switch issues, but no actuators or control modules...

    c6 clutch

    Hi there, Z51 is the OUTER TIE RODS. And the RANGER method of removing fluid does NOTHING for your slave cylinder fluid. You cannot override gravity to get the fluid out of the slave cylinder. In most cases, you are simply cycling the slave back and forth, cleaning the support that the...

    Steering Column Lock Motor Burned Out?

    HI there, I did comment on the CM, but yes, I would completely get the car out of there. The low battery voltage would NEVER cause shorting of the column lock motor. It will create bad information TO the body control module but that is it. Im not a big fan of the Red top because of the lower...

    c6 clutch

    Hi there, GM service recommendation is 2 years / 24000 miles for all c5 and c6 clutch fluid. 88958860 or DOT 4 brake fluid should be used. The issue is HEAT and the fluid boiling when under stress. Thats why header equipped cars have MORE issues as the headers are RIGHT next to the hydraulic...
