I sent a note last week asking why my 2001 vert was giving me a shock error, I found out today when I backed her out of the garage after a month storage, RATS ! I've had a rat chewing things up under the hood. So far the oil gauge doesn't read out, getting the shock error, radio/cd player locked and I have a couple bite marks in the hood liner . She ran fine but I'm concerned it might have other problems. Anyone know what might have been chewed up ? Thanks. :mad :cry

Re: Rats !!!!!!!!! (BrawnyC5)
I had one going in and out of my garage and it took me a month to catch the bastard. It chewed a bunch of wires under the hood of my old C4. It even brought food from the outside and stored it on top of the intake manifold. It chewed a bunch of wires under the hood. It finally ended one morning with a huge plastic glue board, one big squeeling rat, and me holding a 4-foot iron pipe.
Park an attorney's car in your garage overnight. Rats love company and will climb on board. Remove the car before 9:00 AM when they usually get up and they'll just leave with it. Or try traps.
