Default C5 - Oil plug backing out ???
Just came back from Carlisle...what a great time. I overheard a lecture in regard to troubleshooting C5 Corvettes. It was mentioned that there is an oil plug (behind the transmission) on the C5, which commonly backs out on it's own. Does anyone have more detail on this issue?

Did you hear if it's common to auto or manual or both?
