Wow! Almost useless and extremely disappointing. Tirerack etc list NO winter tires for C8 and I cannot find any anywhere. Why didn't the video recommend any? Regarding oil change prior to storage: "There's no right or wrong answer" Are you kidding? One option must be better than the other. No discussion on fuel stabilizer, ambiguous answer about oil change, No discussion of what to do if not storing near electrical output for smart charger. Regarding fuels for storage, the "expert" says "vehicles age during storage" Duh, Did he mean fuels age? Why have I never had flat spot tires?


But the worst part of outright misinformation is at 2:20 when the expert advises to change your DCT transmission filter at 7500 miles or 1 year. Thats completely misleading as that recommendation is 1st change ONLY. He does not clarify that and leaves the impression the DCT filter should be changed every year or 7500 miles. From the manual:

so other than 1st time you would be changing DCT filter  5x too often as recommended

What a wasted opportunity.


Regarding fuel prior to storing I just received this from GM Customer Care:

"Thank you for your email.

It is best to store the vehicle with a full tank or as close to a full tank of fuel when storing the vehicle for the winter, with Fuel Stabilizer added to the tank."
