Brad there was a pretty 'famous' picture here on the C5 Forum a while back, that illustrated just how much debris could get up in between the radiator and A/C condenser. I thought I had saved it, but I can't seem to find it. It was definitely a classic.

I did find a couple of pictures I had saved that were pretty graphic so here goes...




Do check up in between them and check to see what all (if anything) might be there.

One thing I did add to my C5 was this air intake debris screen. Can't seem to recall who I purchased it from now.


Good luck... GUSTO

Aside from that everyone has come up with the typical things to check. Will sit back and see if the OP figures it out.
I just had one done for a friend's 2004 a month ago. Must be very recent.

All I know is the master thread from this very forum is gone and if you go to their website and click on PCM tuning it goes to nowhere.

I read somewhere in here about the whole ordeal but I don't remember the thread.

My suspicion is they are still doing it on the down low but not advertising and if that's the case, good for them!
