| 99 C5 A4 transmission problems | 29 Feb 2004 20:48 GMT | 2 |
Nice day for driving, but on the freeway, the trans started to slip. Limped home at about 40 mph with tach showing typically 2,000 rpm. not good. almost 30,000 miles on the beast. Are these transmission fragile? I do like to launch the vehicle, and this makes me consider that maybe ...

As a former Forder amd Mustanger I occasionally check on my former favorite car. Is what I read true. The new Mustang does not have an independanr rear suspension? What is that about? Isn't this the 20th century?

| 95 Starting issue | 29 Feb 2004 03:10 GMT | 7 |
Usually, it starts quickly. But sometimes, it takes up to 5 seconds or so. Big problem? Or normal. Funny, it seems to have the issue over a short period of time. Like Yesterday, I took my boy to McDonalds. Parked the car, went in and ate came out, the car took about 5 seconds

| Rough guess | 29 Feb 2004 01:18 GMT | 4 |
If you were to put a ballpark number on a 88 Vette coupe, with 109k, that will take rugs, weatherstripping all the way around, front discs, a new center console and some general TLC that ALSO has a rebuilt title, what would that number be? I drove it, it runs ok, it was hit

I'm closing in on the end of my three years, only 27K on it. I've never bought an extended warranty for any of my cars but I'm contemplating it for this one. Haven't had a load of issues, door actuator, gas gauge (a couple of times), headlight motor, nothing much

| C5 Starting | 27 Feb 2004 18:25 GMT | 18 |
I'm new to the list and have a neophyte question... Just bought a very clean 97. The car runs fine but is a little hard to start. Seller says this is normal for C5s; they'll always crank right up on the second attempt (which has been true so far). Just wondering if any other

| Tall people and Vettes | 27 Feb 2004 16:55 GMT | 18 |
I've been looking at old postings trying to determine which models I could fit in. I'm 6'4" and 290 lbs with a 36" inseam. I figured I might get additional insight from this group. I spend 1 hr. and 50 min. commuting and I would drive the Corvette daily. I've always wanted a ...

Well, not Hell, but a Jeep Grand Cherokee. It's been a long cold winter (Cinderella rocks!) here in Michigan. But in the last 2 weeks, I've driven the Corvette more days than not. I give all the people who drive 'em in northern climates year round credit...for guts...But it's

| Aftermarket Seats for C4 | 26 Feb 2004 06:53 GMT | 2 |
Just bought my first 'Vette, an 88 blue coupe, 4+3 (waited 10 years, but worth it - yea!) after a few mechanical repairs, everything runs great, but the leather seats need to be recovered. I would rather replace them with 3rd party seats, but my concern is size. The seats are ...
