Hi there A gynecologist was getting tired of his job and decided to switch careers. He'd always enjoyed tinkering with engines, so he enrolled in a school for...
Typical - dealership trying to sell you a "big ticket" item. If you can live with the crack, I would go a little bit better than super glue. I would ...
Hi All! Just wanted to say hello and let you guys know that I'm still around. Sorry that I haven't responded to any postings or e-mails in the past week. ...
The panel screws off and you disconnect the various plugs. I was kind of supprised to find that there were no clips to break. If you get to the point where it...
Pretty good ! thats like the mechanic that had a benz in his shop getting the engine rebuilt....the owner was a famous heart surgeon. when the owner came to...
the crack that you see is a fraction of what is really cracked inside. thats why the panel is loose. they crack inside where they mount to the top edge and...
I washed and waxed my 94.When I was drying it, I wiped the third brake light and it pushed into the body on one side.Not good. I took the license plate off and...
That's what I am afraid of, the crack being far worse inside and only an inch is visible on the outside of the panel. If it were just the one inch crack at...
Don't feel bad !!! Let me tell you about my latest GM feeling. For the last 2 years my "Service engine soon light" will come on. Took it to Kool Chevy in Grand...
one other option.... mine is also cracked, like they all eventually do...that strip of paneling that wraps over the top lip of the inner door itself can also...
I purchased a Honda accord in 2000 and have now driven it over 90,000 miles. Since I purchased it, there has not been one electric component or mechanical...
Sorry, but I dont see much point in comparing a 2000 Honda Accord to a (1988?) C4 Vette. Apples to oranges. But your reliability point of Japan vs. USA is well...
Those foreign cars do seem to be more reliable but I think American Cars have improved quite a bit. My 2000 S-10 ZR-1 Chevy Truck has not had any unplanned...
your current issue is NOT the battery, its the charging system. if the battery failed, it would still run as long as the alt was putting out voltage....yours...
Gary: As a retail business owner and one time (30 years ago) new car salesman I can feel your pain and share in some of your observations but, as in all things...
Rich...its all about cost. cost of mfg vs cost of repair. when they know that the avg american will trade in ANYWAY in 4 to 6 yrs, with 7 yr financing now...
Hey all, This has nothing to do with GM an how they run the Company, lol. Does anyone know where to find Rear Ends for our Vettes. I found out that I only have...
Hey Jim, Thank you for your response to my Post. Maybe I should have calmed down before i made that post.I was still pretty torqued up when I wrote it. G.M....
Unfortanately, GM is likely doomed, despite the work of the engineers on the Corvette. My '94 is one of the most comfortable, and capable performance cars...
i hate to say it, but i think these mechanics get a trend idea, where they replace the same thing on everyones car in an attempt to fix a variety of problems....
I have a 1996 corvette with about 56K miles. I agree Honda and GM are apples and oranges in many respects. I was referring to quality and reliability and...
dealers hire parts changers. not mechanics. mechanics take TIME to diagnose problems. they investigate. an ATI or GM tech will take the symptoms that YOU...
So instead of allowing speculators to price gouge on the Zo6 the dealers do it themselves instead, LOL. I've seen people on ebay selling for about $20,000 the...
Ok I'm through complaining about the organizational problems with GM and build quality and service issues, the price gouging on the Zo6, dealerships, etc. I'm...
Well said Rich! You are exactly correct. If they build more the price will come down. The Z06 is a great machine. It is a shame they have to muck it up...
Can the door hinges on 94s be adjusted or do they bolt on in one precise positon and are unmovable? I have a drivers side door that the tippy top back of the...
After my post I started investigating the door hinge situation at Ecklers and Midamerica.....neither of them have door hinges. I did find a C4 Door hinge...
