Drip, Sizzle!
Hey all,
quick question about my 2017 GSCE. I’ve noticed the last couple times of driving, not even hard driving, very normal…that when I pull into the garage and get out, I hear a very clear drip and sizzle sound. Nothing hitting the garage floor at all. Sounds like the drip is hitting metal and then sizzling. This is my first Vette and am just curious if this is normal or should I be concerned? I just purchased the car a few weeks ago. It is CPO as well.
Thank you for any opinions and advice.

+1 for A/C drain line that drops condensation onto the passenger side exhaust tube. GM Marketing wanted to charge $177 for this as an option package called "Rapid Exhaust Cooling System." Seriously though, Fuhgeddaboudit.
