#50 of 90 new problem - windows reindex Re: update [tmerriss] by rayainsw Dec 30, 2007 (2:15 pm)
Replying to: tmerriss (Dec 30, 2007 2:03 pm) This may help:   Window Indexing This feature automatically lowers the window a small amount when the door is opened. Then, when the door is closed, the window will raise to its full up position. If either window does not index properly, it could be due to loss of power. Before returning to your dealer for service, perform the power window initialize procedure following.   Power Window Initialize After a power reconnect such as battery replacement, the window index-up feature will not function until the system is initialized. Once power is restored, do the following: 1. Close the door. 2. Raise the window by pulling up the switch. 3. Hold the up switch for three seconds after the window is closed. Release the switch. 4. Hold the up switch again for three seconds and release.   From the owner's manual...

Replying to: tmerriss (Dec 30, 2007 2:03 pm) Your window problem is called indexing, you can fix it yourself. Check the owner's manual, I believe all you have to do is hold the button in the up position for 5 seconds and until you here a beep. Every time mine is in for service this happens from the battery disconnect. You would think the mechanics would take care of it.   Update on the transmission, week four and still no gear, supposedly they have the regional Corvette Manager working on it.

(Think there is a Regional Malibu Manager?)   I doubt there is anyone with the title.   There are regional service managers. You should be attempting to get a name and number of this guy and see if he would get involved...

30 years ago I bought a new Corvette off the showroom floor.....after one month and 1000 miles....it rolled over to the side of the road & I didn't see it again for over 4 weeks..(& that was just the start of the saga)...guess not much has changed.....so far my '07 / 15K off sticker / Lifetime warranty / MB Crossfire has been perfect.
#56 of 90 Problem solved: by tmerriss Jan 26, 2008 (3:48 pm)
This thread of mine has seen many others with Corvette problems, but I think that mine is finally solved.   At the dealership I tested a brand new 08 auto, and the noise...is there! That's right folks, the grinding noise under acceleration coming from the back of the car...it's normal! At least in automatic trannys.   Also, I noticed that when weight is on the car (like a full tank, or another passenger) the sound is lessend. Even though this sound is a normal sound, Mid West Inc. claims that the exuast hangers can be replaced with non-stock units to quiet the sound! Anyway, I want to thank everyone who posted and I hope that the information that I have shared can help others...

Replying to: billw501 (Apr 24, 2007 1:02 pm) Did you ever resolve this? My 2008 has the same problem and I'm told by dealer it (the noise) is within limits. They have a bulletin telling them not to change transmission.
