First Time Owner
Finally got my first Corvette! 2017 Stingray Convertible. Drove it for two hours.....now it's in the shop for the infamous fuel leak. Someone make me feel better about it.....other than its winter at least.
Leak is being repaired next week and Chevrolet is covering part of the repair. Decided to do the torque tube rebuild since the labor process on both is the same. Excited to get these out of the way!

Nice car and unfortunate that you have a fuel leak. Best of luck with the repair - hope it is not too extensive and welcome to the forum.
