I can't get competitive driving mode, nor the ptm sub track menus. I'll take it to the dealer but I won't let them keep it. If they can fix it while I watch, cool. If not I'll wait. Vin1458 NPP, msrc, Z51 automatic.

Your dealer just needs to clear some codes that were set when GM did final tests on your car in BG. Your PTM will not be A problem after reset from dealer

guy told me the brakes are just new. had to get on it (the brakes) a few times and it stopped. has happened once since in the past week but def sounds like i just needed to get the glaze off as he said. hope it helps if you havent already figured it out.

I have heard the same sound - not sure if it's and issue or not though.

The sound that you're hearing is the fuel door unlocking.

Not sure if this is an issue or not but when I was polishing the rear bumper I notices that the driver side seemed to push in further the the passenger side. Wasn't sure if something was missing under the bumper panel on the drivers side or that is just normal. Anyone else have this experience?

Thanks

What mode did you have your car in when you clocked the 4.0, and did you use launch control? I'm still breaking my car in and have only accelerated hard once from a dead stop and got a fair amount of wheelspin. I thought that the traction management system was supposed to eliminate wheelspin on acceleration runs (?). I would appreciate any thoughts you might have based on your experience with your car.

I brought in the car today to the dealer and, after getting off the phone from GM, said they are replacing the infotainment screen (posts 9 and 30). Apparently GM wanted the dealer to pull my old screen and have me drive for 3-4 days without it. My dealer said no and what they will do is pull the old screen out to get the numbers off of it, put it back in and let me drive with the old screen until the new one comes in then replace it. The issue is twice the screen has turned gray with a static look, like it's getting no signal. Both times it corrected, once after a restart and once after waiting 60 seconds. The next time was while driving the screen fragmented and started flashing. Did this twice then returned to functioning correctly. VIN 2039, Z51, NPP, MRC, 3LT, 742 miles. If replacement screen resolves the issue then I won't follow up, if not I will post to this thread. For some reason GM needs either the old screen or the number off of it before they can replace it, I have no idea why.

you would think they could get that info . from the vin. without tearing up your dash .

My thoughts also. Tomorrow when I bring it in for pull out and number gathering, I'll ask. Plus I wonder why the number is needed for a replacement part to begin with? It's not like they have several different screens from different manufacturers, at least I don't think so.

My car #3419 still at dealership ,they don`t know what to do option TTV, carbon fiber option, spoiler, that (they see I paid $100 on the MSRP ) rear and two side mirrors . The car came with the two side mirrors black but the spoiler is red as the red on the car. I don`t mind that but there should be a price adjustment . I don`t wish to have them paint the mirrors red, might be hard to match the red paint of the car. We are very pleased with the car as this is my 3rd new Corvette and this is the best

Maybe they're trying to figure out if they got a bad batch of screens from the supplier?

Durnberg

Maybe but why do they need it before they will send replacement?

Update
Car is still @ dealership, Rodger Dean in West Palm Beach, FL, not expected to return until Friday at the earliest.

Issue 1. & 2. Replacing screen
3. Still no answer. I don't think anyone @ the dealership understands what this menu is or that it does exist in car with z51 and mag ride. I was told today that they were searching on youtube to find video on how to access menu. This alarmed me, but not as much as an email I got form Chevy customer service. I contacted them to get support for the dealership since they don't seem to understand the car. When Chevy customer service contacted the dealership today they told them that they do not have my car or a ticket open on my car? Bellow you will see a picture of my car in there garage taken sunday, 10/20/13. I stopped by this Sunday to see my car. I missed her that much! I'm a little concerned at this point. Also they discovered that the torque tube is bent in the car. They think it was a defective part installed @ BG. My white c7 is the 4th car one the right!!! Not a great feeling.

Car has been at dealership since Wednesday 10/16/13 @ 10:30 am.

Just so everyone understands where I am coming from, I LOVE this car. It is amazing inside and a dream to drive. I am though very disappointed in both Chevrolet and the dealership. I traded in a 2012 640 BMW on this car. I followed this car online and in every issue of Motor Trend as info was leaked about its production over the last 3 yrs. Now to let a car out with bellow standard QC and to have bad customer support @ dealership is very disappointing. I want to drive a Corvette, but how do I justify paying $72,000 + for a car and getting $10,000 support and service. GM needs to consider this. Being a current BMW customer, I have still have a 2012 550, one thing I can say with 100% certainty is this would have been handled better by BMW. They would at least be able to tell me what is wrong with my car after 6 days and they would know that my car is in one of their service bays!!!

I am down the street from you in WPB. My dealer (Autonation) was able to get my menu working just fine. They have to clear the codes and reset the battery from storage mode. Then you simply need to depress the brake and hit the button 2x. PM me if you want my cell and I can try and help you out.

NOMRW8NG

Hmm. Maybe they already know about a bad batch and are trying to determine if this is one of them?

I agree, it really doesn't make sense to have to pull the unit twice.

They are replacing my center screen, they called GM, sending one next day, did not have to take old one out, I am driving car, take it in Wed.
