Seems like about this time every year I get the revolting breakdowns. Perhaps you can spare a little advice before my mechanic hits me up big time.
This is a new one for me though - replaced a presumably dead battery. New battery has drained itself completely on two occasions. Charged overnight and driveable however I noticed incomplete messages for the fuel and engine gages. "SYS" did show up on the board. I'm sure this is not a friendly hello from the Corvette demons. Or does it mean Save Yourself and Sell?
Of course there's more - the Servise ASR light comes on intermittently, the a/c doesn't ALWAYS work (blows hot air), got some white exhaust smoke on start up, and have the dreaded antenna at half mast syndrome. Please don't beseige me with Viagra jokes <smile>
After letting it sit for a month, the gears were extremely hard to shift through. Is that normal? They did loosen up after about a mile but it was worrisome.
Well glad to see you are all still hear and hopefully can give me some ideas. Thanks! jj
