Default GM memo

Does anyone have the reference memo number for the Clutch problem from GM for a C5 or C6. I am trying to get a reference for my dealer so he can fix my sinking clutch in 3td gear. I was told today that they will replace the clutch and slave unit.

The dealer tore apart my car today to replace a defective Clutch Plate and Slave unit. The problem is that their are no parts available. Hopefully they will get it from the factory in the next few days.

I told you should have waited. Hopefully you can get the new unit in soon. Let us know what happens.

Talked to GM today. The parts have been ordered for stock in Jan. Nothing yet. They have 2 choices. They will either take it from a car in stock or wait for the part. Meanwhile GM either pays my monthly and keeps me happy or after 30 days the lemon law kicks in and here comes my Z06.

Default Clutches

I have not seen anything in print yet. I heard they have anew part number for the C6 but not the SSR or CTS-V. They are trying to get some parts in stock I think
