    Question: Radio Reception

    Sounds like you have an antenna issue. I have the same radio but in a vert with a regular mast antenna and I get great reception.

    Differential upgrade

    If you are concerned about resale put in the 3:15s. You will still see a noticeable performance increase and the 3:15s are the stock performance gears offered as an option by the factory.

    Differential upgrade

    Wow 4:10's in an A4? You'll be running close to 3K rpm @ 70mph. I don't have my gear/RPM chart handy here at work to give you the exact numbers. I do know 3:42's in an A4 @ 70mph is right at 2,450rpm which is plenty high for me. I can see the M6 with the 4.10s. This is just my opinion so if...

    HUD BRIGHTNESS ISSUE ON C5

    I have found a couple of theories on why the HUD gets dark. One being the light sensors solder connections are "cold" and lose connection causing the HUD to think its dark out all the time. The other is the lights in the HUD are going bad. So far I have not come across anyone that has found a...

    wheel key location

    The sending unit is the only thing bad so the high false reading wont hurt your engine. But if your oil pressure drops out of normal range you wont have anyway of knowing and that will hurt your engine.

    wheel key location

    I've never had to replace mine but I'm handy with a wrench so it would be the cost of the sensor for me. Not sure how much the sensor costs but its a pain to get to. Its behind the intake manifold.

    Question: small ding repair

    My first thought would be professional but its hard to tell with out actually seeing the damage. It would also depend on how friendly you are with a good body shop and how picky you are about how that spot looks after the repair.

    scratches

    Sounds like you have the spider web scratches. The easiest way is to use a good buffer like the porter cable 7424. Then pick your favorite auto scratch remover. I personally have used the "smooth cut/light cut" polish from Top of the Line detailing supplies and it worked well. When I run out...

    scratches

    I'm thinking we need a bit more detail. Are they big scratches or the very small spider web scratches you only see when looking at an angle with good light source?

    wheel key location

    The lug key should be in the drivers side rear compartment. There is a small indent where is designed to go. If your oil pressure is pegged you have a bad oil pressure sensor. This is a common issue on the C5.

    I went to school at NAU and my room mate lived in Cottonwood. Along with the weekend trips to slide rock I have driven 89A many many many times. Wow what a fantastic road to just cruise on, beautiful scenery, good elevation change, a curve here and there :chuckle. One of these days I'll get the...

    How do other Corvette owner feel about....

    I would have to say WAAAYY better. As far as the wheels go I like the chrome and if they are made for the C5 the TPS should fit. Check with the seller first though.
