Default You guys ROCK!!!

I had a problem with my A/C so I ask you guys what I needed to do to fix it. Several answers came back. It looked as if I was going to be out about $500.00. One member said try this trick before you spend all that money, so I did the trick(simple- pull fuse and reinstall) and it is working great again. Thanks for the help....

I have owned my 02 Z06 for about 10 months now. I have to agree to the wealth of knowledge here and their willingness to share that knowledge … They do Rock!

I may need new eyeballs installed with all the reading.

I love this car, but the thing I love most is the people on this forum. No other car forum has reached this level of involvement as far as I am concerned. Also, these cars are very easy to work on, once you know what to do, and easy to wash too!

Over the years the info here as to the hands on stuff and references to parts and shops has been invaluable.
