Me and my c6 were driving down the road minding our own dam
business when Miss c6 died. 0 on the tach message center
said low engine power. No turnover ....nothing but onstar which
had a tow in 20 minutes! The electronic nightmare continued when the tow guy asked to put it neutral.. It's electronic too!
Long story short it is in Steve's good hands at Bryner.
Let you know what the story is.

Todd,
Sorry to hear about your baby. :mad:
Let me know what you find out. So far I've had 0 problems (knock wood) with mine. You may want to check out corvetteforum.com to see if there are any postings about similar problems.
Best regards,
Mark

I believe a very very similar thing happened to a friend on mine's C5 back when he first bought it. It's a computer function that misreads your car and says it's out of oil or whatever and limits the power to protect the engine. All manufacturers have this feature in their cars. Problem is that sometimes the sending unit's no good. Spence will find it...Good luck.

Computer mudule was completly fried. Hope this does not happen
to anybody else, especially on a dark remote road. If it does, hope
ya have onstar! Steve's (both) were awsome. My first experience
at Bryner was great
Yep, I was there earlier today...
First thing out of my mouth was bad PCM, then Steve popped in a new one.
