My Seized engine.
I have not seen the Arrow Report but the service manager states the conclusion was "oil starvation" as the cause. Not to beat a dead horse, but the oil change at 500 miles was done properly, with the correct volume of synthetic oil - -I witnessed the entire oil change and it all is documented...- fixbone

Insurance Question...AGAIN!
I pay 800 per year with USAA with one ticket in 10 years. I live in Southern Wisconsin equadistant between Chicago and Milwaukee. No one can touch USAA but, obviously, you have to be active or former military.- fixbone

It's been about 6 weeks since my engine was pulled after it seized at 3,000 miles. Details in my previous posts. Little or no feedback from dealer. Service rep called and said it would he available to pick up this week. After the problems I have had with the brakes completely failing and now...- fixbone

Oil Change
Check your oil consumption every 200 miles until you are certain there is no atypical oil loss. See my other posts about "Seized engine."- fixbone

Any SRT Radio Problems
My radio/ CD died in the first month but I rarely listened to it anyway... It also quit at 3K miles but that was because the engine seized. I'm sure when they put the engine back in it will sound great!- fixbone

problem with new SRT-10
I seized my engine today. Changed oil at 500 miles. 2000 dipstick reads full Don't drive too hard. Guages all normal. No blue smoke. No overheating. Today, 3400 miles, funky tinny sound for 20 seconds at 2500 rpm then engine SEIZES. Towed to Dealer.. Less than 4 quarts in pan. Unbelievable...- fixbone

Stock SRT 10 exhaust vs Corsa
The Corsa is sharp, loud and raspy. Sounds much better if the car is passing by you then if you are driving. The sound seems to mellow after a couple weeks, but most likely what really happens is you begin to go deaf in your left ear. I actually drove the first few weeks with an earplug in my...- fixbone

FORD GT vs.Z06 vs. VIPER. TESTED!!!!!!!
The way I look at it, the top of the line Vette squeaks by the "base" Viper coupe. If DC made an ACR version of the GTS Coupe (say 250 fewer pounds and 50 plus more horsepower) then we would be comparing the top with the top. Does anyone know if there is a lighter, higher performance ACR...- fixbone

Hey vette, stop waving, this isn't a C6!
Re: Hey vette, stop waving, this isn\'t a C6! After reading the replies I had to check twice to make sure I hadn't accidentally posted on Oprah's forum. My point -- and it is merely an observation --was that amongst earlier model Vette owners they appear to mistakenly wave to the passing Viper...- fixbone

Hey vette, stop waving, this isn't a C6!
Hey vette, stop waving, this isn\'t a C6! A less serious post. Maybe I'm wrong here, but: Vette owners wave and acknowledge other vette drivers on the road, regardless of year etc. As a previous ZO6 owner this was a common thing as we saw other vettes on a daily basis. As Viper drivers we...- fixbone
