1718 is the standard rear pad size for the ATS-V, Camaro SS and C7Z06. Readily available most everywhere. It doesn't yet have the sensor cut outs however. I actually pulled mine and traced them and sent the tracings to Carbotech and they confirmed it was the same size as my ATS-V pads...

Yes they are the 1718s. Same size as the ATS-V. Again you will not find a set with the sensor cutout, but the 1718s fit after the sensor is pulled.

Besides the small access there is a whole lot attached to that battery particularly that positive terminal. Glad the dealer is changing it out. Thanks for the video. I had my 18 ATS-V for 4 years but the battery never needed replacing.

Actually no. The door is about half the size of the battery.

Interesting. Essex carries a pad for the 4 BW but not for the 5 BW. Their part for the 4 BW is the same pad for the C7Z, Camaro SSs, CTS-V, and ATS-V. However it does not have the missing backing plate and pad material to fit the brake sensor the newer car has. So you just pull the sensor...

Although the cause sucks, it is probably as easy of a fix as any problem could be. Does anybody have any idea how to actually get at that battery? It appears there are a couple of pull plugs up by the left trunk support that need to be pulled and then the trunklining can be pulled back. My...

I have been buying warranties on my Corvettes since the C4 era in any case where I have kept them over the basic warranty period and have NEVER ended up with a net negative expenditure. I have always received more in warranty claims, generally much more, than the warranty cost. Now admittedly...

Corvetteforum had and likely still has a supporting vendor that sells the GM ext warranty nationwide (except for the few states that now require a state insurance license to sell the coverage). Maybe the site people here can reach out to them and see about signing them on for this forum also...

When it was owned by GM, no. I had engines and transmissions replaced on my Corvettes in the 80's. It is now farmed out and just branded GM, but I still have never heard of a cap.

In the past I have used the cars hard enough the extended warranties were a good idea. I have learned to not buy the warranty until the 33 month of a 36 month basic warranty. So it would be at 45 months for us. The extension begins at purchase so why not get the maximum time available. I...

Perry here. My first new car was a 67 GTO with M4. My first new Corvette was a 76 L48. My first new Cadillac was a 77 Coupe de Ville. I owned one 3rd Gen Camaro 1LE CMC race car and then a 93 Camaro CMC race car I campaigned for 5 seasons. I owned two C4 Corvettes. A 93 Fortieth Ann Vert...

Try this link to see their pics of a Midnight Steel. Also note both CF packages but also note their window sticker which doesn't show the packages! Are the CF packages stock on the 2023s? https://www.vosscadillac.com/inventory/1G6DL5RPXP0410727/

That is correct. Although it looks like it barely clears once you pump the jack up you would be on the CF splitter. Notice the aluminum plate and SS bolt near this pinch weld? I put the jack just behind that bolt to get the front up.

Do you have the CF packages? I have a set and they work for the back pinch weld but not for the front pinch weld as the CF skirt is too close to the pinch weld.

It is an OTA fix. But how do we go about scheduling that or making it happen?

14V while the engine (and alternator) is running is what you should see. A resting battery in the car should be 12.6v. Mine runs 12.0-12.4 measured at the engine compartment +/- terminals. But I have a 2 ch dashcam with parking mode operating so I would expect I have more parasitic...

It is quite a ways to LV and the entire way is a very lucrative area for Nv Highway Patrol speed traps so they recommend you drive at or below the speed limit all the way back and they focus on later in the day returns to LV. So unless you are taking a near midnite flight early the next day is...

I am not, but have been in the past. A very cool show. Last time I went was about 20 years ago. It was in San Jose, Ca that year. As I was standing at one booth looking at their wares, I was next to a short balding gentleman with little hair that looked very european that was asking about a...

The LT4 supercharged motor has an ECM that will not show all monitors ready at anything less than 1000-1200 miles. Ca CARB folks know that and have approved it. So if you want to smog an out of state new car purchase with less that that amount of miles simply skip the normal STAR certified...

Did mine and the center stack is all wonky. I use and love the BMW style knob for choosing Audio stations. I use Sirius XM a lot and am continually switching between stations as I drive. With the new update the center stack switches from the Audio screen to either full Nav screen or split...
