    Push button start fails sometimes

    I have had my 07 since March. On 3 or 4 occasions, I have hit the start button and nothing happens...no lights come on in the dash, no starter, no sound, no nothing. It starts after hitting the button a couple more times, but it's alarming thinking that someday it may not start. I thought it...

    Push button start does nothing

    I have had my 07 since March. About 3 or 4 times, I have gotten into the car, push the start button, and nothing happens...no lights come on or sounds or anything...just plain silence. I have waited several seconds and tried again, and it will start after trying it 2 to 3 times. I assuming...

    Drove new c6 (manual and auto) at VIR

    Paddle shifter I think the paddle shifter is pretty nice. It is not like an automatic where you only have the lower gears to pick from. You can shift through all 6 gears. The response time from hitting the buttons is pretty good. Unless you're a really quick manual shifter, it's almost the...

    Black dots on rear hatchback window??

    Does anyone know the purpose of the black dots on the hatchback window? I was getting my windows tinted and they could not tint over the dots. Tony

    Visor sticker cover-ups

    I just painted mind with flat black paint. Looks better than the safety warnings and is quick. It's noticeable, but not bad at all.

    Rebuilt tire pressure sensors

    Where do you get new ones for $75. I would rather get a new one for that price. The dealers are charging about $250.

    '97 auto rebuilt or replaced transmission

    I'm wondering because I had to put mind in the shop because it was slipping badly. It would take about 1-2 seconds to downshift back into 1st after coming to a stop. It also was having difficulty shifting at about 55 mph into the next gear. It only has about 68,000 miles on it. The dealer...

    Do Red Vettes get more speeding tickets than other colors ?

    Any red car gets you more tickets. I've been pulled over at least 4 times in my red Mustang in about a 5 year period. Never in my white Corvette in about the same time period, and only once in both black Corvette's over several years, for doing well over a 100 on I-5 in Calif.

    Traction System Failure

    My service traction system comes on about every 3 months or so. I hit reset and never see it again for a few more months. I have never experience lost of power however. (97 automatic)

    97 Headlamp Motor Replacement

    It takes about 40 minutes to replace the entire motor. Most of the time is lost because it is such a tiny space to work in, so unscrewing it is slow. You can take out the three bolts holding on the gear and just replace the gear. It's easier on the right side. I haven't tried it on the left...

    Transmission replacement

    I have a 97 coupe with 68,000 miles. I was experiencing problems with the car not downshifting timely when I come to a near stop and accelerate again. I put it in the shop and they tell me I need a new transmission. They say it is cheaper to replace it than to rebuild it...$4,500 total with...

    headlight actuator/motor

    In most cases, the plastic gear inside the motor is striped. If you're lucky enough to find a wrecker that specializes in c5's, you can probably get the plastic gear for about $10, verus the $200 for the entire motor. GM should sell the plastic gear's as parts instead of making people buy the...

    Fix a Flat through C5 sensors??

    The tire guy at Winston tires told me that fix a flat would ruin the sensors when I told him that I was thinking about using it versus the cost of fixing a flat. Tony

    Dual Air conditioner controls

    Yes, I ran the codes and there is a "B0361 - Left Actuator Feedback Short to Ground" under HVAC. I'm assuming this means there is a short in the left actuator. Where do I find the actuator? Tony

    Dual Air conditioner controls

    c4c5specialist, I tried disconnecting the fuse #27, with no luck. It does the same thing. I also tried it with fuse #24 because on my fuse panel, #24 is A/C and #27 is a spare. I also left both disconnected and ran the A/C. I noticed that the passenger side now blows plain air, but the driver...

    Dual Air conditioner controls

    Hello, My name is Tony. I have a question about the air conditioner on my 97 couple. This is the second time I have had this problem. When I turn the air on, the passenger side blows at the desired temparture, but the driver side blows warm air. The driver side only blows cold when I reduce...
