    New tires

    Good choice I bought Michelin ZP last January and I am very pleased with them in every respect. All season means I can actually drive in snow, but more importantly, in rain. There is no problem with the pressure sensors if these tires are dismounted and mounted properly. I used a TireRack...

    New C5 Owner! Tire question

    Several months ago with 35,000 on my '99 coupe I researched this same question. I asked several so-called tire salesman in various tire stores and did research on the Internet. My front Goodyear GMTs where near worn but the rears were good for another few thousand miles. I considered...

    Tires

    35,000 on my '99 coupe's GY EMTs I researched the usual brands including Firestone, GY, Michelin, Pirelli, and some Korean. I am very pleased with my purchase of Michelin Pilot Sport ZPs all around. There is no reason for me to give up the run flat feature. This '99 is my daily driver in all...

    Disappearing oil

    I have a 1999 with 34,500 miles that I bought new. It has always used a quart of oil in about 2000 miles. I say 'about' because I check the oil every few hundred miles and top it off. I top it off because oil is a coolant and will lubricate, clean and cool best in the long run if the full 6.5...

    2001 C5 pings!

    Spark knock -- ping My '99 C5 pinged under moderate acceleration. It pinged more when the ambient temperature was above 80 degrees. I never could blow out the carbon enough to eliminate the pinging. Pinging existed from the time my C5 was new on to about four years and 28,000 miles. I was...
