vintagez~ What if you were to just remove the neg. cable from the battery terminal for the winter? This way, you could leave the battery in the car. (Unless you're worried about battery damage from freezing.) Might wanna get the tires off the ground too, if it's gonna be THAT cold! (Better...

ALL LS7's are built @ Wixom PBC. It doesn't matter if the engines go to Bowling Green for installation into new Corvettes or they go to "stock" as crate engines. The only difference I can glean from the "crate" to the "BG installed" engines is that the crate engines seem to make slightly more...

Interesting. I have just the opposite problem. When I floor the car and get going really fast (150+,) I hear "WEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" I can't figure out where it's coming from either!:rotfl

Depends on what you want to do with the car. If you want to get max mileage out of a set of tires (and save a grand,) then you'll want Firestone Wide Oval runflats. (Yes, you can get a set for $1000 out the door, WITH road hazard.) Now, if you track your car, then you may want something...

Who was the engine built by? Look for a name label on the top (passengerside.)

I found it fascinating. Watching the car's crumple zones work (even at this tremendous energy level) is always something we can learn from. Sure they're designed to work at much less energy, but they worked somewhat, even @ 120. A speed they were clearly not designed to handle. Are/were they...

Your lenses are suffering from "crazing." This happens when they're heated up or from flexion. The only way to heat them up (internally) is to install higher wattage bulbs inside them. Since your are HID (and are supposed to be "cool" then that's not it. However, you DO have incandescent bulbs...

Wow! A new ZR1! I bet it's for sale by the end of the month....

In SoCal, it's "hy-rrrrolllica" and you gotta roll the "r's!":chuckle

Fixed it for ya. No Corvettes have factory remote control exhaust systems. Thee are some aftermarket makers that have remotes though.

Sorry, just trying to be "cute" with slang. Yes, "cut-outs" can be installed on a C6 for about $1000 from any competant exhaust/muffler shop. Your car will "pop" on decel, unless you get it tuned after the install.

Tuna, glad to hear you are back up and running! If memory serves, your warranty work is covered by a 12 month add'l warranty, since it was performed by an authorized GM repair facility. Also, it's my dealership's policy to "NOT WASH" any Corvette after work is done, (they make a special point...

Since the airflow is straight thru, the pleat direction change will be negligible. EDIT~ Sorry, I thought it was the cabin filter.

Are you checking for codes thrown?

Usually, the manual only states: "RETURN VEHICLE TO AUTHORIZED CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE." I doubt they set up the car for everyone/anyone to fool with the OBD port. (Granted, anyone can, but should they??) Well, no, not everyone should...

Sounds like you've got the defrost button pushed. It's along the row of buttons (2nd from the right.) Watch your display for the symbol to dissappear. Got yer manual?

So is the problem resolved or is it still a problem?

Doc, it sounds like the door is ok, but maybe the dash was removed for some reason and not totally reseated upon re-installation. Does the window fit the rubber trim evenly?

Check the axle nut(s.) (passengerside is known to loosen) Check the rear swaybar mounts ( their known to back out check the swaybar end links (breakage) Have the grinding rear end recall performed...for free!:thumb

Since you have AO tintcoat, it'll have to be blended. I would have the rear of the car totally inspected. This includes the rearend/transmission mounts/cases and everything underneath the fascia cover. Also, have the "box" that is glued to the frame checked for cracks. Lastly, I'd have the frame...
