I was absolutely full. S**t. Its finally sunny here and I could take the top off and the run car. If transmission falls out on the ground so what, I'll put a new in it. This car is a rocket. I don't miss my c6 any more. There is a little noise about 1100 rpm in drive train behind me. But this car is fast. Corners like it's on rails. I guess it will be around for a while.

Well done new guy, nice ing. Now, if you're serious, do yourself a favor and get the triple flush done asap with the latest Mobil1 fluid. Don't put it off. GM states dealer does NOT need to verify a thing, all that matters is the customer states there's a shudder.

I may be a new member but I have been reading this site for a good while. OP, do what these people suggest. Most know what they're talking about. I joined when I bought my first Corvette. It was around Easter and it's a 2017 Stingray with automatic tranny. I have 18,000 miles on this car and the only thing lemon about it is the lemon heads at GM that put this AFM horseshit on these cars without a default switch for us.

C8 or C7, either's 2X+ better than going back to the C6 you already traded in for the C7. I'd want the DCT AT of the C8, if given the option/opportunity you now have.👍
