Default Dumb Question

Does the 2010 G/S convertible have the dry sump? I just got the car in March and will be doing an oil change soon.

Thanks

Only if it is out of oil.

Only the Grand Sport coupe with a manual transmission has the dry sump as does the Z06 and ZR1.

As indicated, only the manual tranny coupes have the dry sump.

What if you have the Grand Sport with a manual transmission? Or is it
only available on the coupe?

Only coupe manual transmission GS cars...
IMO The vert people along with the auto folks paid the difference for everyone else's hand built dry sump engines.
Regardless of their reasons for not adding the drysump engines, GM should have dicounted those cars if they didnt want to put the nicer engines - to me its one of the car's major selling points/ features.
