6 speed problems
I just received a call from the NCM saying my car will not be available Monday as scheduled. Apparently there is a hold on the 6 speeds. Does anyone know what is wrong with them?

gdeath,
I spoke with Judy this morning @ NCM and no mention of problems. I pick up my Mag Red 6 speed tomorrow @ 7:45 AM @ NCM

I just spoke with Gary at the NCM a moment ago. He said also that the line is shutdown for the rest of today and possibly tomorrow. There was a loud pop and the line quit. He also mentioned that there is a problem with the 6-speed but did not know what it was. There is supposed to be a truck load of transmissions in on Friday.

Great updated information. Now, this is one of the values of this forum.
Thanks for sharing the news. My car was due to be built in a few days, but, I sure would rather the transmission problem be sorted out before the car was built.

TN 2005 C6, did you pick up your car today?
If so, I imagine you are out enjoying it, as you should be. If not, I do not mean to be rubbing salt into your wounds. I am just trying to find out info.
Did you hear anything about the reported 6 speed problems?
What is your VIN #?
