Is It Time ?
I'm the second owner of a 01 C5 coupe with a 6spd and 27k on the clock. The car has pretty much been a garage queen and sat around alot. I've changed the clutch flulid, coolent, oil and filter, and air filter. Do the tranny and rear end fluids need to be changed at this time ? Also is there any other thing I'm missing that might need preventative maintenance ?
Thanks in advance for your impute !!

What does the owner's manual say?
(In short it will tell you to start driving the Corvette.) No, most everything is good to 100K. Cycle your clutch fluid. Do a search for Ranger's procedure. Other then that.... change the oil when the DIC says to.

Believe me guys I WANT TO PUT SOME MILES ON IT !! As soon as I can back it out of the garage and open a door with out hitting a snow bank and the black top roads aren't white with salt she'll be on the road. I could only drive it a few weeks last fall and then had to put it away... my GF thinks I'am nuts because I go out in the garage and look at every night before I go to bed.
