    Guess the car and year.

    Went to a museum in Saskatoon. They had lots of neat cars from the area, but this really stood out.

    Guess the car and year.

    Yup,, BMW Z 1, 8000 built from 1989--1991. The doors drop down into the sills. Has a composite body just like us and officially not available in North America.

    Complete DTC Oil and Filter, Pan Gasket Change?

    You do not have to remove the tx pan to change the fluid or external filter.... The underbody panel needs to be removed and uses the same bolts for reinstall. I think it's time to have a serious chat with the dealer and educate the service writer.

    Complete DTC Oil and Filter, Pan Gasket Change?

    From what I have read on the forums and my letter from GM is that only the fluid needs to be changed at 3 years regardless of mileage. I would change the external filter again at that time. I have had the free filter change last year at 12.000 kms. A friend just had his 3 year service done...

    Soler

    I've had one for about 5 months ....It is set to sport 5. There is a noticeable difference in throttle response. Have not had an occasion to try the lockout for the gas pedal. It is only accessible from the phone app. I have thought about what to do if the lock out screws up....I guess you...

    Service department BS

    Yup, I got the essential service package too...The tx servicing and the yearly oil changes will more than pay for it.

    Tires

    Looks like the continental 06 and 02 tread wear rating are both 560. Says they are both supposed to last 50,000 miles....Maybe not on a Corvette.

    If you were only getting the filter change that is free in the 1st 3 years or at 12.000 kms. that price is high for just a filter change. Or were you getting the 3 year fluid change ?

    Tires

    I went with Continental DWS06 on my 18 ZO6....Quieter and smoother ride , but they aren't run flats. On my Eray I just switched from the summer only tires to Michelin sport all season run flats.. Treadwear went from 300 to 540.

    Yes,,he didn't want the new boots to get wet. Good thing he didn't have made in Canada gumboots.

    1983 Corvette

    It sure is lucky that it got saved by a mistake due to new cowboy boots.
