    Help Torque converter problem

    I presently have the vette booked at Paul Sadlon's for a diagnostic (@$125). I have driven it the last few days, strictly in manual mode to speeds up to 80Km/hr. No shudder, fingers crossed they diagnose it properly?! In case anyone is interested....here's the pending Canadian Class Action...

    2016 Delivery woes....

    Thanks for your info…..we did try them and we were dealing back and forth, but finally settled elsewhere. They did have many vettes to choose from, but we wanted an LT1 automatic (we were a little shy of the manual they had - being such a powerful engine); it's our first go at a corvette!

    2016 Delivery woes....

    Thanks…….We are the first 2016 ordered at the dealership - that we know for sure. Without sounding ignorant, they made the price guarantee when we left the deposit. However, we feel less confident since reading your response. We're calling now to get this sorted as best we can! Thanks for...
