Tadge will have overheating nightmares soon... You guys are rough up here.

I think the entire C7 community is taking a hit with this overheating publicity that's going on. Sad to see this but I think GM will fix it.. I have faith in them.

Tough internet crowd. I think or at least suggest a degree of respect in various responses.

Remember gm has to test solutions and it doesn't just happen overnight.

I think these gentlemen are deserving our respect for even attempting to listen to owners ...

Just my two cents and just my opinion.

Waiting for the updates, my 2015 A8 Z06 with 7200 miles has had no issues, but I don't race it just spirited road trips

So...what did they say? Will they make our Dreams Come True? Will the Z06 continue to be a ManEater? Or will the next vette be targeted toward Rich Girls?

They were ask about mid engine and said the experimental car has one and that's all we will say or we get in trouble!

Maybe discretion was requested. They probably read this board, or at least get synopses of it.

Has to imagined, right? Just like the intake valve coking issue any inspecting their valves are seeing....

Seriously, he has a very difficult position/job and can't discuss any of the issues or negatives. His job is to promote the C7 for the awesome car it is for the $ (and it is) and to discuss serious issues would be very counter productive for GM.

Tadge did say this about the overheating and heat soak problems at the Reeders meet.


He stated that they are known problems and they are working on the solutions.
They will make them available to the owners in a retrofit repair when ready . He did not give any other specifics.

Will do some more waiting here then. Winter is cool enough to run the Z06 for the most part.
