Bolts

Glad it's fixed now. Just curious, did you compare the new bolt to the old one before installing it? Also, the treads on the shaft may have had some old locktite that buggered up the new bolt. A...

agreed

I wouldn't drive an automatic (slush box) when I was younger, but times change, and so have automatics.
Only having one car, and using it for a bad commute, changed my mind after my heel tendon...

multimeter?

The car will be using some juice if the rear hatch is open. To get an accurate reading, disconnect the negative battery terminal, and using a multimeter on the battery itself, take your reading.

Follow up to original post by me

When I had my problem with the seat being stuck all the way forward (it was a limit switch), they dealer replaced the plastic panel with a new one, noting the old one was "warped". I then realized...

seat bolster rod bending

The drivers right seat bolster was just too uncomfortable for me, to the point I couldn't enjoy the car. So after looking up ways to fix it, I bent the rod to the left about 1/2 inch. This made a...

Shallow Hal

Nice to see so many positive answers here, maybe you guys are ok after all!

Spats

While I understand the function (now) of the spats, I just couldn't stand the look of them when I bought my Stingray. The dealer had a black GS parked right next to the black Stingray I bought. I...

Thanks

So this thread got me to reading some older ones and I pulled my 87 fuse today (2019 with NPP) and took it for a ride with the top off, and I like it. I leave it in sport mode because I like the...

There is still road noise for sure, especially on grooved concrete. Blacktop is much better, but still intrusive. Post back on your sound deadener results please. I also got lloyds mats front and...

Forum rules regarding sales

I had listed my car for sale here, but it was removed, as it was considered an auction, which is not allowed. My bad, I should have read the updated rules before posting. I've been a member for a...

My A8 experience

My 2019 Stingray has the A8. It performs great, after the first start 1-2 shift delay that is. From what I've read, this is considered normal, it takes a while for the fluid to fill the shift...

Stingray vs GS

The Stingray is actually the model type, Z51 is the performance option. and LT is the trim level. So it's Stingray vs GS you are considering. Even after owning many Corvettes over the years, these...

Looks cool though!

It looks great with or without the top, so from an appearance standpoint, it's a winner. But as a practical matter, it's a loser to me. A pain to take off or put on, very noisy when off on the...

Me too.
I'll assume you were hit from behind rather than backing up at high speed, so what's the insurance situation? Was the other vehicle covered. Same company as yours or not?

Top off noise

I love the look with the top stowed in the trunk, but have to agree the noise and wind are terrible on the freeway. It's great on secondary roads and around town, say under 45 mph. Of course I'm a...
