Dim temp display I'm having a similar issue, though the numbers don't skip. The display is just really dim. Almost impossible to see during daylight, and very dim at night. Adjusting the rheostat for the dash lights does not seem to have an effect. The dealership told me today $80 just to...

$40!!!!!???? That is a steal! :upthumbs

Switched to Ti I installed the Z06 Ti mufflers shortly after buying my C5. Two reasons: First, the stock exhaust tips look like they belong on a Caddy...hmmm... maybe because they are on the STS. ;) Second, I wanted a more throaty exhaust note, but this is my daily driver and didn't want to go...

Looking for a set for my '04 coupe. I've heard the after market imitations are prone to failure. I don't really want to pay the dealer a premium for a set. Any idea what a good OEM set will set for, and/or if they will fit a C5 without wheel well mods/issues? Thanks guys. :w

Changed clutch My clutch started acting up from the early beginnings, any time I ran the car hard. By running it hard, I don't mean dumping the clutch or hard shifting, just running high RPM and putting the car through it's paces... I.E., how a Corvette was meant to be driven. The peddle would...

I've leased a couple cars over the last few years, my first Vette (a '96) and my Porsche Boxster. Both were financed on a lease program through my credit union. The Vette was $19,000 with an extended warranty, payment was $383 on a 39 month lease. The Porsche was $30,000 on a 48 month lease with...

It's very possible the ebrake was rubbing. This would account for the extreme heat, which in turn could have boiled your brake fluid... leaving you with spongy brakes, if any. As everything cooled your brakes would come back, although maybe not to 100%... and if it was your ebrake, once the...

The funny part is the weight savings of about 2.5 lbs... that's the difference of driving to dinner and home from dinner... better do your racing on an empty stomach.;LOL ;LOL

I don't know if it was a screw driver that was used. The owner of the car believes it was something more along the lines of something "J" shaped as he wasn't able to see how a screw driver could get in there with out causing damage either. It seems to be a mystery right now just how the crook...

Yes, the alarm did work as advertised... lights, horn, the whole 9 yards. As for the locks, I would have expected it to at least be difficult enough to pop that it would cause damage. In this case, someone could break into a Z06 or Convertible take whatever they want out of the back end and...

Update As promised, here is an update to this issue. A thorough inspection was performed and the only indication anything happened is an indention in the rubber seal where what ever was used to pop the trunk was placed against the seal to pry on the center trunk latch. There are also some...

Hi Patrick, Same thoughts I had. I confirmed with him, and the deck lid was closed all the way, and in fact the cops asked his wife (she was out shopping with it at the time) the very same thing. She demonstrated to them that if the lid was not closed all the way, the alarm would not set. He (my...

Hi guys and gals. Got a question here concerning a friend's Z06. I have a coupe so I wasn't able to answer it for him. Apparently his Z was broken into this week, and the cops watched the suspect and then arrested the guy when he broke in. Anyway, no damage done to the Z, but the crook...

Hey guys, once again the topic of tires comes up, but I didn't find quite what I was looking for with searches. I have an '04 coupe I just passed 16,xxx miles with and I'm already seeing significant treadwear and the stock Goodyears are getting to be quite loud. My question is, what kind of...

Hi Tom! Glad to hear you've got it on! I haven't had any issues with eveness when I put it on. I used a 12 inch random orbital with a terry cloth bonnet to apply it and a terry cloth coated foam hand applicator to get where the buffer couldn't. Applied in the shade, below 85 degrees and had no...

Quick follow up Alright, so I've had RejeX on my car for a week now. My car is a daily driver and no covered parking (sacrelige I know). Here's the run down. The car has seen morning dew, 100+ air temps along with sitting in the sun, driven in the rain, sat in the rain followed by 85+ sun...

Alright, I don't sell this stuff, even though this is about to sound like a sales pitch! (Hey, word of mouth is the best advertising!) Alright, so I've been detail cars since I was 16 (That's 13 years now... man I'm getting old) and I've tried just about every product on the market. Well a...

It's all moving to my ears and nose. I thought that didn't happen until after you retire??? ;LOL

You sure do know how to help a guy out with his confidence. :cry
