    FAKE NEWS

    The fumes from one of these batteries when burning, will kill you. Get rid of them. Big or small, they need to be kept away from your house or garage.

    An accident waiting to happen!

    Just eat in your car and you will eventually have mice. The smallest bit if food will attract them. Many years ago I bought a mouse infested Chevelle. The whole interior, including the carpet and headliner had to be removed, cleaned or replaced. The smell would make a pig puke. There is a...

    Climate Control reads both Celsius and Fahrenheit at same time

    Or 2005 C6 has more than enough of these gizmos that I really don't need but am stuck with them.

    Ticket for no front license plate?

    We bought our 2005 in 2012 and it had never had a front plate bracket mounted on the facia. I wasn't about to drill holes in the body. Shortly after that, a friend got a fine for no plate. I made up a bracket that mounted on the bottom of the front facia. It sort of cleans up the front end...

    New seat upholstery

    Both our 1997 Oldsmobile LSS and our 2005 Corvette have leather seating surfaces. The only ratty parts in these cars are the leather parts. Perhaps if the factory used quality leather, there would not be a problem. I had a 1969 Chevelle SS396 with the original all vinyl interior. I had the...

    McGard replacement lug nuts question

    This was my experience. Way too brittle. I always use a torque wrench on everything, so it wasn't due to over torqued. Two nuts had pieces broken out of them. I went back to the factory lug nuts. Our car is never left out at night anyway.

    head up display

    Our 2005 has the HUD and honestly, I seldom even look at it. There are times when the sun shines on the glass and I can not read the HUD. Our car has the memory mirrors and memory seats and my wife and I use that option every time one of us gets into the car.

    C6 Mods What You Have Done and What Would You Like To Do With Your Beast!!

    Early on, with our 2005, I removed the painted wheels going with the polished version and later went with the same in Chrome. I then added stone guards behind all four wheels. I bought a Vararam intake from a guy who was going supercharged. Sounded about the same and it would take a dyno or...

    Tires and Alignment

    Our 2005 was wearing both front tires on the inside edge. The local alignment shop simply zeroed the camber on both front wheels. Lots of miles on these tires and wear seems to be even now.

    Battery died after roughly 3 years?

    I have C-Tek battery tender-maintainers on everything, from lawn tractors to cars, when they are not in use. Newer vehicles with all the advanced electronics and such all have a parasitic draw on the battery and it does need help to stay charged. I get good, long life out of my Delco batteries.
