car won't start
Anyone have the problem when you go out to start your car and it just cranks????? My 2007 c6 6 speed has done this a few times. I have waited a few moments, sometimes minutes and then it fires right up!!!!!

I understand. My 05 was a DBS car. A month after getting my new pride & joy the battery was dead and it was shut down right. It took over 18 moths to fix mine, (with 4 more attacks) yours can be fixed in a day or two if I'm right on what your problem is.
Get yourself to MR Goodiewench. Hey sh** happens, get it fixed and get back to driving your new ride.

car has been towed to the dealer with no luck. It arrived there and low and behold it starts! Techs tried it every couple hours and it starts???????? WTF???? I am going to bring it home and go out somewhere and guess what, gonna leave me stranded. They did hook up a data logger to it and told me next time it happens to hit the data logger. Still won't keep me from being stranded. This is unreal

If you can hear the fuel pump running and there's no fuel pressure, I would suspect that the fuel pressure regulator is stuck open. Maybe some trash on the seat.

dealer brought the car back home and took it right back to the shop again. The driver tried to start it to put it in my garage and bam...... no start. We data logged it this time. This is after 2 days at the dealership with them starting it every couple of hours. I even went by myself and tried it! WTF???????
