I have been reading in the manual that the Eray electric motor Drive Unit requires an oil change at every 15 hours of track use - see your dealer. Does anyone know how to go about doing this yet?

The Stingray is expensive enough as it is. Who needs that?From the manual:
Front Hybrid Drive Unit Fluid (E-Ray) If equipped, the front hybrid drive unit fluid should be changed after every 15 hours of track use. This procedure can be complex, see your dealer.
How often do you have to change it in normal driving?I ordered an Eray as it best suits my needs and driving abilities on track and for use on the road 8 months of the year in Southern Ontario. Only looking for answers to help me service it myself like I have with all my cars for the past 50 years. Usually going to dealers is a bad experience for me due to incompetence or lack of knowledge on the techs part so I will find out how to do it right.
I haven't found that answer yet.How often do you have to change it in normal driving?
So, you're buying it mostly to get the AWD ability? For winter driving, and summer tracking? That seems reasonable, although the 15 hours electric motor oil change limit will get expensive quickly, if you do track it, I'd imagine.I ordered an Eray as it best suits my needs and driving abilities on track and for use on the road 8 months of the year in Southern Ontario.

Agree. How can a hybrid that can't be plugged in, and only goes 5 miles at 45 mph on electricity, and costs a king's ransom, appeal to the masses, never mind be environmentally friendly? It was Mary Barra trying to get the EPA, and the eco-warriors, off her (GM's) case.I don't think the Eray was ever considered as an overly environmentally friendly vehicle. Interesting on the electric motor oil change. And I thought the stingray was a tech maintenance nightmare. One more reason for me to appreciate my C7.
I found it! You must change hybrid drive unit fluid Every 72,000kms if not tracking the Eray. I found more ERay maintenance items we don't normally see:How often do you have to change it in normal driving?
HUH? How do you figure that?"buying more EVs will reduce our dependence on petroleum products" said no intelligent life form ever.
