Geez Al you should have bought my C5. I take the oil out of the lawn tractor and put it in the Corvette. I proudly (but perhaps not wisely) recycle.
My god dealers can be frustrating people. You would think the flagship of the line would at least get a service advisor/tech that knew what was going on. Can you imagine what they do to cars of people who perhaps are not as mechanically aware?

Back to the original topic, how do you know what the dealer's putting in there anyhow? If they're dishonest enough to not follow factory instructions, or to try to make you pay extra for it, who's to say they're not just grabbing the dino oil hose to top it off with?

I go to a dealer that has Corvette trained techs (about an hour away from my house). They put in Mobil 1 as a part of the free oil change service. They are also good about not overfilling. Its just annoying I have to go that far.

This Murray, is why I think if Corvette wants to be taken seriously GM needs to make Cadillac and Corvette an independent network. You have the product, but the service level is lacking when basic service is poorly executed. Sure, you'd pay more but at least the service should be more consistent. The C7 is an outstanding sports car and it deserves better from Chevy dealers.

Go see Ken Gordon, service manager at Boyers in Pickering. Had my complimentary services done there plus some warranty work. Ken is great to deal with and a Corvette guy. No hassles just great service.

On a side note gm fill of choice will be Castol Edge, moving away from mobil 1, some factory fills are already Castrol.
