6000 mile check up One thing you probably should do is a coolant flush. GM recommends the Dexcool be changed at 100,000 miles or 5 years whichever is first. Good low cost maintenance that can save you thousands. What you really need to do is drive the car and put some miles on it. The lack...

Good morning everyone. Looking for a little help if it is out there. Last spring I bought the OEM foglight screens for my 02 Coupe. Installed them as per the instructions using the provided double sided tape. Long story short, lost the passenger side screen on the highway somewhere. Looking...

Put it away for the winter? Hello folks, I live in suburban Chicago and have an 02 Torch Red coupe and it is my daily driver 12 months a year. I am lucky to work from my home so in the winter, if there is snow on the roads, she does not see the streets. If it is cold and dry, we are on the...

Hello Baldie 88!! Saw your note. I currently have an 02 Coupe but had two C-4s in my prior life and had the same situation with my 96 that you are now having. The problem for me was the starter. Before it goes, you will have the type of problem you are having when the starter is hot, when...

DIC odometer Hey Hotwing, it is not possible to change the mileage on these computers, I don't think. You would have to have a contact willing to break the law at a dealer etc. These computers now a days are way to sophisticated. I also have a Torch Red Coupe, 2002 and when I bought it in...

Good morning from Chicago!! I own a 2002 Coupe with about 14K on the clock. My problem is a drivers side window that will not work after shutting the door and the car is started. Other side works OK. I have done some self diagnosis and and have found that if I open the door to the full open...

Active Handling Problem Hello Midnighe C-5. I have an 02 Coupe with just over 13,000 miles on it and had the same problem last spring when I had 8000 on the car. I would get both the Service Active Handling and Service ABS on the DIC. It would stay on for a few minutes and then go away. Did...

EGR Problem Vette-Dude, my memory must not be as good as I thought. It must have been my 96 coupe LT1 that has dual EGRs. I know I had two on one of my earlier Vettes. Randy

EGR Problem I had the same problem on my first Vette, a 91 ragtop and I could swear there were two EGR valves on the engine, one on each side of the engine block. I was told that should both be replaced at the same time. I have been out of the C-4s for a year or so and moved up to C-5 but my...

Flashing SYS I had the same issue on my 96 coupe and it was the battery going bad and about to fail. I would take it in for a test. My bet it is about to go. Good luck and report back. RJ Suburban Chicago.

Hello folks, from suburban Chicago. I am looking at the steering wheel inserts sold by Cyberdine. They look great on their webpage and they run $24.99. I sent for one of the decals from Ecklers or Mid Am and was not happy with the quality and had a hard time getting it to stick. I have an 02...

Hello folks. I have a new in the box Ventmaster that I bought in Bowling Green last fall. Used it once or twice and it worked great. I upgraded to a 2002 C-5 earlier this year and have no use for the Ventmaster. It cost $30 when I bought it and fits all C-4s. Good for cruising on hot days...

Good morning all out there on the internet. My ABS/Traction Control check system warning has popped on twice in the last week and I was wondering if anyone has had this problem. First time I drove it back home and the next time I started the car the warnings were off. Today when going out for...

Torque vs Horsepower Hello XLR8, I saw your question and can provide only the basic answer to you but I am sure more responses will come from those techies that can really explain it. The short answer to your long question is that Torque is what gets you off the starting line quickly, makes...

Door lock issues Hello Mode101. I also have an 02 coupe and was having the same problems with the passenger side door lock. The drivers side worked fine but not the other. I just took it into the dealer under the warranty as mine only has 5000 miles and has a few months left before the 36...

New Member Hey Mojo, I had a similar problem with my first Vette a 91 convertible. Would turn the key and have full power everywhere but the engine would not turn. Turned out that the starter was going bad. The position under the hood on those years exposed it to a lot of heat. I would try...
