GM Dealer, best Corvette tech in Toronto West End?
Hey guys, I have a car that was purchased at Logan's in Brampton. Since Logan's is now no longer in business Bob the Corvette mechanic has moved to LMC in Milton so is no longer with GM. Who would you trust your Corvette to in the West End if I need a dealer to read some codes or perform warranty repairs? I have a, "Service Active Handling" message that came on once last night. I am definitely going to install the TSB clip part# 9179794 myself first but may need a Tech 2 Scan.

Sounds like you had a similar experience. I was heading into Toronto last night and had to take pot hole ridden Lakeshore and the traffic was horrible. I was at a light and did a hard left hand lane change and the DIC went nuts and displayed "Service Active Handling". I had dinner and when I started the car after the message was gone. I did notice my voltage in the heavy traffic was down to 13V instead of the usual 14.5V and shortly after the climate control went from 21 to 28 on its own. No problems coming back after dinner and my Innova 3130 pulled no extended codes and voltage returned to 14.5V. I think I will definitely install clip #19179794 on the SWPS cable and change my 5 year old battery. Also noticed some condensation in my left front head lamp when I got home. Poor car just does not like the cold Is yours still giving you the Active Handling warning now and then?

Oh, sorry, your thread title only said West End???, since this section of the forum is not just the "Ontario Section" but the "Canadian Section", I thought maybe I could help, clearly it was a wasted click .....

Yes, the last time they installed a clip (in the steering column) as per the TSB (I'm still under warranty) but that was only a month ago. Hopefully it won't come back. You should definitely fix yours because in the US section there are lots of guys that have had their wheels "lock up" which can cause a serious accident.
