My 99 Vert has it

Had the recall done on my 1999 A-4 C5 Convertible last year. This month the DIC started to show "Service Column Lock"; it was drivable, just annoying having to clear the alarm on the DIC. Took it to dealer and it needed a new relay for the Column Lock Dealer had it for three days waiting on...

Yep its back... Click Click Click...:ugh

Well shop says no more than a normal draw .2 on the car sitting... I tightened the battery connections prior to going, hope that was it... I however have a feeling that the problem will return...

Hmmm sounds like mine...its going in the shop tomorrow.

Not a 69...but here's a 99 Nassau Blue Vert as well as a write in Nassau Blue vote...:w

I did not oil mine (nor did it come with any oil) I purchased it from WCC. IIRC the instructions said to reoil at 50k miles. Cheers Beer

I added a Blackwing last Month (A4 Tranny, and did not reset anything), no problems what-so-ever. While waiting for the UPS truck to show (It got to my house late in the afternoon, good thing to cus it took me 3 hours or so to do the Mod) I decided I was gonna modify the factory fog lamp...

Here is My 99 :beer Stinger 4 Tip on the rear. Cheers Beer

Thanks :beer Took the pics at a public Boat Launch in Bath Maine near Bath Iron Works Its Doubling Point Light on the Kennebec River http://lighthousegetaway.com/lights/kennebec.html Next Time I will treat the tires and get there before the boat trailers start going in and out of the water...

Thought I would throw in a couple of pics of a Nassau Blue Convertible since no one put in a FRC pic :D Cheers Beer

Good advice, I will get with my local Corvette Club (maybe see if they have or would host a message board for this topic) and check out their experiences with the local Dealers for service. Thanks for the feedback, if I learn any more in my "quest" concerning GM certs/classes or C-5 specific...

I am curious what certification/training a C5specialist get? :confused I am looking for a new dealer (for service) and I want to seek out someone qualified to work on my car, and be able to ask the dealer if they have such a mechanic on staff. So what certification from GM makes a C-5...

I had Mieneke install mine, cost $100 (I did keep the old exhaust should I decide to trade the car in at a later date). From looking at the stock exhaust after removal I do not see any torch cuts on anything (I know they did cut the old bolts with a torch, but I did not see them cut anything...

Last year doing a round trip from Maine to Dayton Ohio (960 miles each way), I averaged 27-28 MPG with my C-5 Automatic, this was done by calculator and fuel reciepts, and not the DIC, the DIC was real close though. Cheers Beer

I seem to have bad luck with the Dealers (Ford or Chevy), I inspected the work done at the 39,000 mile service on the Vette and I found the Hood Light disconnected, now I realize that the mech disconnected the hood light because the hood was up for servicing, but its the detail stuff (like...

I just put on the Borla Stinger four tips. Wife does not like it and commented that she does not enjoy driving the vette as much when it had the stock exhaust (now is this a bad thing? ;)). I like the muscle car sound, but it is harder to have a conversation, and the radio has to be turned up to...

:D Yep That worked (the rwlc5 method)! Thanks a bunch! I got it started and moved it outside what I find odd is that everything still has its memory; the stations remembered the presets, the seats retained their memory, and the key FOB's for driver 1 and driver 2 do not need reprograming...

Pic to boot :) Found the link for the charger...will be ordering soon. http://www.ecklers.com/product.asp?pf%5Fid=26850&dept%5Fid=1110&mscssid=H9HCPTPF9NML9KL4PXM58239FLT80NK6 Here's a pic of my LOC'd Radio. Cheers Beer
