    torque converter

    You should be fine with the new transmission. It will include the latest iteration of the Torque Converter and the new transmission fluid. My 2018 , built late June 2017 incorporates the aforementioned and the drive line is night and day different than what I had in my 2015, August build 2014...

    torque converter

    Just wondering, when you were at spring mountain and you were testing for the "bump" accelerating in M3 were you in a base A8 car ( non Z51, non GS, non Z06) ??? The reason I ask is when I was at Stingray Chevrolet in Plant City FL for my third TC replacement I also snagged the M3 bump. The...

    "Warble" noise A8

    On some of the "other " C7 forum boards you may have noticed a great number of posts regarding a warble or chirping noise coming from the back of the car especially at 1500 RPM using light acceleration like going up a slight incline,( most noticeable in 6th or 7th gear).About two years ago GM...

    torque converter

    In Feb 2017 while in Florida I took the car to Stingray Chevrolet in Plant city where it was diagnosed as needing a TC replacement, which was the third TC. I also snagged the "bump" while accelerating in M3. The shop foreman hooked up his computer to the car and we did a test drive.At the point...

    Leaking fuel tank notice

    OR Perhaps in the late 2017 MY production the problem was identified and fixed. I noticed on another C7 forum board that when the notices were first being reported owners of MY 2015,2016,2017 were all receiving the notice at the same time. With component tracking there is no reason that if MY...

    Question C7 Tight Turns

    Normal with Michelin PSS run flats. As I don't track my C7 I replaced the OEM run flats with Michelin AS 3+ all season tires. No more wheel hop, no degraded braking in cold temperatures, do not throw stones/debris, quieter, and I think a bit softer ride. Mine are non run flats with the softer...

    torque converter

    Xviper,just wanted to give you an update on the 3rd gear bump in manual. Software updates, transmission triple flushes , two torque converter and one transmission / torque converter replacement did nothing to fix the bump at Aprox 2200-2500 RPM accelerating in M3. Over the 30 months I...

    PDR problem

    Some 64 gig cards are not FAT32 formatted. You can format that card or pick up a class 10 32 gig card and it will be plug and play with over 700 minutes available......good luck.

    Run flats or ?

    Hey Paul; I have a C7 base , 18 fronts & 19 rears, and wore out the OEM runflats ( no track time) at about 32000 K.. I replaced them with Michelin AS/3+ NON run flats and carry a GM compressor/slime kit and have road side assistance. For me the above work best due to ; quieter...
