I am looking for recommendations for the best dealer for service. I've had my 2025 1LT Coupe since late August 2025 and now have 11,200km. Will need to get 12,000km oil/filter change and DCT Filter change in next one to two weeks. I live in Kitchener but am willing to drive as far as London or Georgetown/Mississuaga/Brampton for service. Where would you recommend I go? I do plan on getting a service package as I near the three year mark. Thanks for your help.
 
You could try Race Ready in Cambridge, or Stingrayauto.com in west Mississauga.
Why would he go there when the Mobil 1 oil change and DCT filter change are free if done by a GM dealer?
Newbie, I would take it to Georgetown Chev and speak to Don Le about the maintenance package while you are there.
He can follow up with you when it's time to get it.
 
Guys. Thanks for the great advice. (Mr Corvette. Exactly. Need to go to the dealer for that "free" Oil/DCT service.) I had heard okay reviews of Forbes in Waterloo and Scherer in Kitchener and happy to go to London for Finch if people had good experiences there. My gut is to go to Georgetown (esp with the recommendations of Jack Raccoon and Mr Corvette) and, while I'm there, meet with the famous Don Le, lol. Any other words of advice before I book the service appt?

If you DM me your contact info and the time you've booked, I will speak to Don about you ahead of time so he can see you while you wait.
 
could a newbie here request a quick dm to mr. don le? Heard he's the go to guy for maintenance and warrtenty plans! just ordered a new c8 today!
Welcome and congrats on your purchase. If @Mr.Corvette doesn't hit you back, you can contact Don at Georgetown Chev or dm him here @LeDon if he still watches the forum.

Of course I will hit you back! Congrats on joining us at CCF and on your new car. What did you order? What did the dealership tell you about the extended warranty and maintenance plan up to this point? We can't do much until you have a VIN number which you can DM me when you get it along with your contact information so I can get you some pricing before you take delivery of your car.
 
Thank you! So glad to finally be able to order my childhood dream car! I ordered a red mist 2lt with black interior. Wouldve really loved to get the tan interior in 3lt but the reflections on the windshield is too distracting for me. I just put the deposit in yesterday. They offered me both the total plus plan for warranty and the maintenance plan with enhanced care. both at 84 months/ 80k km, and zero duductible. Told me as long as I make my mind up before the delivery I can choose to take it or not! My friend who works for GM in the states told me she doesnt know how it works in canada, but in the states, when it comes to warranty, you can get it at other dealers AND to join the local community forums. Very glad she told me about how many places have local forums for corvette owners! Was poking around the threads when i saw this thread here about don!

I have the enhanced care and it has paid for itself already, but I have a 2020 which only came with one oil change. The tranny service is expensive and has to be done every 3 years.
