    Help! Am told I need a BCM but do I?

    Yikes! Hoping mine doesn't take a dive! Sorry to hear about your issues, I have gone through some in my 30 years of buying Corvettes. Most recently with the 17 Gran Sport. To hear that the EBCM is no longer available new kind of puts a dent in my day as I have a 2000 FRC I am considering putting...

    Grand Sport Service Rear Axle.

    Finally ended up taking it to the dealer(yuck). They did replace the same module I had replaced twice. They say they guarantee it for 2 years so we will see. Thanks to everybody's replies.

    Fan stays on until battery is dead

    An update on this problem. As soon as I post this the problem will probably return but.......all of a sudden everything works again. I went to every ground I could find and took them off and put dielectric grease on them and retightened everything. Been about 2 months without having to pull the...

    Question: BC Racing Coil Overs

    Wondering if anyone has tried the BC Racing coil over shocks. Thinking of putting these on a 2000 FRC. I don't want to stiffen the ride too much as this is a sometimes daily driver. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks

    2015 failed R. I. emissions on state inspection-Help

    I would say it's legit. The newer cars have a lot of safeguards built in to avoid fraudulent emissions testing.

    Fan stays on until battery is dead

    Wow. I will have to check this out. As he said in the video this is merely a power bus. My problem seems to be power when it is not needed. I thank you for the link. I wasn't aware of the power bus, so as they said at Faber College "knowledge is good" Thanks again.

    Fan stays on until battery is dead

    Thanks for the reply. I haven't been able to find any fuse marked fan. I hope I won't be in the market for a new ECM.

    Fan stays on until battery is dead

    My radiator fan is coming on and staying on until the battery is dead. Has happened 3 times now, not every time I drive it. Having to pull the negative cable off when I park it. Can't find any relay that is marked for the fans. Is this a PCM controlled function? If not where is the relay for the...

    Grand Sport Service Rear Axle.

    Hib, I have reread your email. When I replaced the rear axle gear lube I used GM LS Gear Lube 75-w-90. I have replaced the rear axle sensor, part number available when I get home. I am going to change the gear lube again today or tomorrow. In the transmission itself I used a synthetic ATF. You...

    Grand Sport Service Rear Axle.

    Thanks Hib. This is the car I replaced with that Grey 2017 with the automatic that kept throwing the torque tube on. You came by my house to check it out. Once again you come up with the most informed answers. I will throw it on the lift and have another look. I replaced the controller but it...

    Finally found the part under the right rear fascia. A bear to reach it. Glad I have a lift. Nice to not have the different sides fight each other. Handles like it supposed to again.

    Well I bought the module. I have my car on the lift. Does anyone know where this module is located? I can't find it from underneath.

    Well you must have a great dealer. I don't think they exist here in Vegas. I have purchased control module for the rear end. I will install this weekend if I can get my 72 Nova off the lift. I will let everyone know how it turns out.

    Grand Sport Service Rear Axle.

    So about a week after the warranty ends I get this message in the DIC. 2017 Grand Sport 7 speed. Didn't seem to affect anything until I went on my favorite exit with the off camber dog leg. I usually hit this one at around 95 or better. Now I can feel the rear end fighting itself. Anyone have...

    Is it as fast as they say?

    yeah that is the way I am leaning. Might sell a few cars to come up with the cash and still retire.

    Is it as fast as they say?

    I am not sure. I am trying to decide if I need a new one. I presently have 2017 Grand Sport 7 speed. Supposed to be my last Vette. This one was number 12 in the last 27 years. The problem I have is, if I do buy a new one I can't retire. I am getting a little sick of working, . 44 years in the...

    Well I do have a couple of four post lifts, just in case. I am undecided as to whether I want to retire or buy a C8.
