    C5 ashtray mod

    Ok, I smoke in my Vette, get over it, but never would you see that in ANY car I drive. Blade if that's for real you should have kept it to yourself. No offense, but a new AE treated like that? Yuck!!!

    Anyone around? In desperate need of help.

    As always C4C5 was right. The battery. I never seen a car with a bad battery act as strange as my Vette did. 2 year old battery and a daily driven car. Doesn't make sense it would go bad but they replaced with no charge. Thank God it didn't fall off the lift while they did the work like one of...

    Words Cannot Express

    This morning C4C5 contacted me with an email message. His phone number attached, no you can't have it. I have never dealt with someone in the service field as kind, caring, or concerned as Paul. Myself being in the technical trade and have always tried to help my fellow dealerships, I thought I...

    Anyone around? In desperate need of help.

    I believe the leaking battery problem was before 2002, but I did look anyway. No evidence of any leaks. I can't even retrieve the codes because of no power. I almost forced to do the dealer thing because it's still under warranty. I just don't want to be without the car all weekend and next week...

    Never sprayed anything on the engine. I know better than that. I got to wait till the morning to do anything. I really do hope it's the battery, but my biggest fear is the local dealer. Bought my first Vette there but not the 2nd because they were raping me on the deal. I still use them for oil...

    Hey Rain. Always wanted to say hi. I like your style. I feel like an outsider on the forum at times. Maybe because I didn't properly introduce myself, but I'm always on the site learning and occasionally trying to help. Used to be stationed at Biloxi. 1976. USAF It's very different down there...

    Anyone around? In desperate need of help.

    I had a Pewter 99 also. When the battery went dead I was able to jump start. No strange stuff though. This is like the cars need an exorcism. Very hard to jump tonight. Needed a truck to do it and heavy cables. I'm a bit of a trouble shooter and never believed in just replacing parts hoping for...

    A battery that's less than 2 years old? No lights at all in the car??? Can't even lock the doors. Way too strange. Last night the AC went off on it's own a couple of times but then was fine. This morning no problems at all. after work, zip Nada.

    Thankyou. 2002 coupe didn't start no power at all. Daily driver so I don't think it's the battery. Jump started and all kinds of codes came up. AC starts by itself, service column lock, service vehicle, ABS light on Traction control light. Finnally got home, shut down tried to start again...

    Locking lug nuts eliminated on 04?

    My 99 had the locking lugs but my 02 didn't. I was told that was the year they stopped supplying them. I was quite surprised although I realise that anyone wanting the rims could do so easily with or without the locks. That didn't sit well with me so for peace of mind I bought the locks...

    NXT? Super!

    I just did 2 coats of the NXT on the Vette. Absolutely the very best product I've used so far. It does everything they calim. So easy I even did Mom's new BMW. It even hide the fine scratches in the clear coat. For someone that really doesn't care for the work involved with waxing, I must say...

    Have you ever flipped your coupe top ? ?

    I drove to Manhattan from home, about 40 minutes with the top un-latched, but the Gods were with me that morning, it didn't fly off. I know what your thinking, I must have been stuck in the dreaded morning traffic and never exceeded 5 mph but that wasn't the case. Just a bit of luck. I'll never...
