    Help! Lug torque specs

    Yep, c5y2k is correct. Also, gradually tighten each one until you get to 100 ft lbs.

    Question: Tire Repair Kit

    Stop and Go "Tire Plugger". Available in 3 different kits ... $32, $39, and $150. Better, I think, than the "cord" type plug. Haven't used it on my cars...yet...but have on friends cars and it works great. If need be, you don't have to remove the plug but in my opinion, it's better to have...

    headlight mods

    The PIAA bulbs are the same number as your OEM bulbs. 9006 for low beam and 9005 for high beam. If you go back to their website click on the "bulbs" section then the 9000 series bulbs. You'll find everything you need there.

    Question: Deer deterent systems

    My cousin has these attached to the front bumpers of his vehicles. Black Deer Alert Device 17380 by Custom Accessories | DoItYourself.com My only concern is...how can the sound be transmitted forward of the vehicle fast enough for deer to hear it? Case in point...before I retired, I could...

    Question: 2000 c5

    Have you had your battery checked or maybe even the alternator? I have been told that a low charged battery could be the culprit for a lot of maladies concerning the C5. Just a guess, I'm not as proficient as Junk. ;shrug

    Question: 2000 owner

    I was told that the code is referring to your rear 02 sensor telling you that a cat is bad or going bad. I believe 0430 is the right side. Good luck.

    Help! '66 Offset - Set back - Wheels

    You may be able to get wider tires on the rear with no problem but I've read that 10" wide wheels (depending on backspace) may cause the tires to rub against the trailing arms. I've read a few Corvette catalogs that sell off-set trailing arms that will accept 10" wide wheels. Good luck in your...

    Help! '66 Offset - Set back - Wheels

    I can't help you with backspacing numbers but I can tell you that American Racing Torque Thrust Originals (TTO's), 15"x7" with 3.75 backspace, will not clear your brake calipers. I ordered a set in the above size and did not put one wheel in place before mounting tires. (I was told they would...

    Lazer readings

    Well, I said they were a waste of money. There are going to be times when they will save you from being stopped but having one is no guarantee that it'll save you all the time. I've owned my Z06 since '03 and have never been stopped. The point is...don't give the police a reason to stop you.

    Lazer readings

    There's no magic utterance to get out of a citation. It all depends on how fast you were going. Of course, your attitude plays big part. If your attitude is :mad...that's not a good sign. Greeting the officer with :r is not a good thing either. :soapbox at an officer is not the...

    Lazer readings

    In my opinion, radar detectors are a waste of money. Most of the time, when it alerts the driver of radar/laser, it's too late. At that time all it's telling the driver is "You're had". When I was working, I had the offending vehicle already "locked in" on my radar. Laser technology was just...

    Any issues with the 2002-2004s?

    I've only had to replace the passenger door power window motor. I had the catalytic converter replaced 3 yrs ago under warranty. Other than those two inconveniences, it's run perfect.
