Guys Need Help!!
Ok i leave the vette parked in my driveway, and my driveway is about a 65 degree angle. I leave it in gear, cause we all know how great the c5 e brake is! lol. I come out and the thing is at the bottom of the drive!! I get in and start it and CLING! CLING! CLING! :mad :mad :mad WT-F??? i say. it sounded like there was glass breaking underneath the car. I drove it into the garage and let it run for a sec. The noise got quieter, but it is still noticeable! what is that? does anybody have any ideas? any help would be great cause i need to fix it soon the car is up for sale! Thanks my brothas!! :cheers:

Congradulations, at 65 degrees, you have the steepest driveway in the history of mankind! If you parked a Sherman Tank on that steep a slope, with the tread locked in position, it would slide down the slope. :D :D
I've told you a BILLION times not to exaggerate! :D As for the noise, if your driveway is steep enough the oil pump pick-up could be sucking air and not oil, thus causing a sickening noise. I sure hope it's nothing serious. :cool:
