Thinking about purchasing a 2015 vette with >50K miles (previously owned C4 and C5 vettes) and concerned about AT issues

If you have the shutter issue, is it always present (so a test drive would identify it)

If it isn't always present, in general, what speeds does it generally occur?

What timeframe does it mostly appear (first 10 minute or after driving for a while)?

Is there a way to test AT or check AT 'health' without driving (tools / diagnostics)?

Looking forward to getting back into the Corvette 'game'

Also, ask for the service records.

I would ask seller to provide documentation that car has had the triple flush and/or latest fluid installed just to be safe. I had the shudder show up at 25K and had the flush and fluid done!! Operates fine now.

No, the *shudder is either there, or, not there.

Test driving doesn't identify a lurking/possible future *shudder condition.
