    Question Shift to reverse DIC message

    Creedence85, thanks for your message. I've not been on the forum for a while, so a little update. I finally got the car back on May 4th. They did not update the TSB to bypass the column lock, rather ordered the part to replace it (I guess there are some parts still available)? That being...

    Question Shift to reverse DIC message

    2KforeverC5 - thank you... car is at the dealer now. They did say the battery had a dead cell... I think it did affect the computer... getting it worked on and hoping to have it back soon. Lesson learnt for future storage when not insured on my part :mad: Thanks everyone.

    Question Shift to reverse DIC message

    And the saga continues. The GM dealer ran a battery test and noted it only had 3.6V... so, they charged it and it passed the test. They advised of 2 issues (as per what I already noted): Shift to Reverse caused by faulty switch. Needs to be changed (GM Parts # 89060011). #2 issues, Service...

    Thanks. Rough Rider - even better, I'll just plan to keep her inured year-round! But, yes, great suggestion. Cheers.

    Question Shift to reverse DIC message

    RockyPM - thank you for your reply. Battery was replaced in March 2020 - uninsured as of Nov 2, 2020 and just got insurance this past Monday. I had BCAA here yesterday, and they noted an 8.2 or 8.8 Volt reading on the battery (not good). However, many failed attempts for them to boost the...

    Question Shift to reverse DIC message

    Looking for help - my ‘05 Vette Z51 Convertible is creating grief for me. It sat uninsured since November 2020 - but, I did start her up and let run for a min. 20 very 3 weeks or so. Finally insured her yesterday and now I can’t enjoy a ride. Originally had to jump start her - no issues...

    Question Leak

    the-pipe-bender, thank you! I actually just had the car up on the hoist, and we find the cause - Master Brake Cylinder!!?? We determined it might be the seal, based on following the weeping trail marks. Funny thing is that it is not drippin any longer (and I am watching my brake fluid...

    Question Leak

    XFIRE82 - good point! Never thought about the oil change affect, seeing it's leaking on the other side of the filter. But, what you said makes sense - and no drip marks this morning, too. :) I did not even think about the possibility of oil overspray when the oil drain screw was unplugged...

    Question Leak

    Hey everyone - hoping for some insight/feedback. I happened to notice a leak underneath my Vette. Left side of the car - about 24" behind the front left tire - and about 12" inward from the edge of the car (almost underneath the area of my front dash behind the steering wheel). It has an oily...
