    HELP-2012 Carbon-Ceramic Brake Calipers

    Well, I've spoken with Chevrolet customer service twice now and they indicated that they will call back again on Monday... The gist of what they have related is that these calipers must have been removed by the previous owner and sent out for refinishing. Must have been expensive as the satin...

    HELP-2012 Carbon-Ceramic Brake Calipers

    The Service Advisor at the dealership did point out one thing that I had noticed but not correlated...each of the carbon-ceramic rotors have their relative vehicle position (RR/LR/RF/LF) marked on their inner diameter. That would not be something that the factory would need to do, installing...

    HELP-2012 Carbon-Ceramic Brake Calipers

    Spent an hour with the service department and 30 min with the parts department at my local dealership today. Service dept had never seen any calipers like mine so they sent me over to parts to see what they could come up with using the VIN. Same info, J6E - yellow caliper is what they show on...

    HELP-2012 Carbon-Ceramic Brake Calipers

    I guess anything is possible! Here is a close up of the caliper...if it was redone, he must have paid a pretty penny because it is perfectly matched powder coat including the yellow lettering!

    HELP-2012 Carbon-Ceramic Brake Calipers

    I purchased a 2012 Yellow Z06 (2444 Miles) that is factory optioned to essentially represent a ZR1 in appearance...minus of course, the Engine, Hood and Fenders! The difficulty I am having is in identifying the calipers on the carbon ceramic Brakes. The Build tag on the car indicates that I have...

    Goodyear's Newest Eagle Flies on 2011 Corvette

    Tread Wear I seriously doubt any of us are going to get any tread wear improvement! In order to meet the 1G cornering spec, the tire has to be either 2 feet wide or (as is the OEM F1) be made of a sufficiently soft, road gripping consistency to achieve the spec. That means that we get an...

Stopped by dealership to get oil change and began chatting with service mgr. about roof rubber above psgr door and rear end clicking in reverse. He looked up the history and roof panel recall had...
