Default Ride quality problems.

2003 corvette Ride quality, differance between sport and touring mode. How does your vette ride? Mine show little difference switching from sport to touring, kinda harsh on either setting. Could the shocks be bad at 8K miles?

For shipping purposes on adjustable shock cars GM puts some sort of
block ( 4 I believe ) to keep the suspension from moving. The dealer
should have removed these before delivery but probably didn't.
I know of 2 people this happened to. Go back to the dealer and have
them check your car.

Good Luck
