No start
I don't know if others who own a C6 have had this issue. Very occasionally, after parking for about 10-20 min, I'll get in, and there'd be no green indicator light on the start/stop ignition toggle switch. When I press the top of the rocker in to start, I get a 'engine' lit icon on the dashboard. And the engine won't start. At first, this really freaked me out. Then I tried pressing the bottom of the toggle switch, then press the top and the engine fires right up. I've also found that once, when I got out of the gym and climbed in, I had the same issue. This time, I pressed the 'UNLOCK' button on the key fob and I was able to start the engine.
I'm posting this in case anyone else out there has a similar issue. I don't think I'm the only one, but, I might be. This 'no start' is a very random event. I've changed the key fob battery and it might or might not happen soon after a battery swap. But, the good thing is that my 'work arounds' are working at present. So, if anyone else has had this same occurrence and doesn't know what to do, maybe this post might help. It's a very bizarre issue, and the only gremlin I've noticed in over 3 years of ownership and 35.5Kmi of use.
