Default Great forum!

I just bought a 98 "arrest me red" convertible and it seems to have the standard issue problems. Oil pressure sender pegs at 80 on the manual and 128 on the DIC, antenna bent, tire pressure monitors screwed up. What a relief to read about the trials and tribs of others who have gone before me and solved these problems. I had a 72 and it had my fingerprints on everything, and that was before the internet. The c5 is sure a nice ride! Thanks for all those who have gone before!
