Fuel gauge dropping
Did the later C5's 03 or 04's have the problem. I had it on my 99 and just wondering if I could expect it on the 03. I do add a bottle of Techtron every couple of months.

Yessir.... the '03s and '04s have the same issue. On my early '04 GM acknowledged that the senders were produced with insufficient ink causing contact to be lost, and the gauge to read irratically. I didn't experience the problem until my warranty had expired, so GM didn't cover it (despite acknowledging the manufacturing defect). No amount of Techron was able to resolve my issue.
