C5 maintenance question
I've tried a search without luck.
I have a '98 coupe which I've had since '03. I have kept the oil changed and fixed the minor problems that have presented themselves over the last 7 years.
We are preparing for a long trip and I want to do whatever maintenance needs to be done on a nearly 100,000 mi. 'vette. I would rather get my info from you than the dealer! Thanks in advance.

There are no guarantees with a 100kmi. vette. But as the other member said, change oil,check tires,brakes,belt,hoses, ps,pb, trans fluids, antifreeze, battery. With 100K mi, I would change all fluids and belts. Have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would recommend that you clean your ac condenser and your radiator from all the debris that get trapped in both set of cooling vanes....

I had the AC replaced about 3 years ago - everything's working fine except the stupid display (working on that).
Also just replaced the wheels, sensors and brakes and rotors.
