#79 of 90 Re: 2008 Corvette Automatic Trans Problem [kneargarder] by realtime Apr 27, 2009 (12:09 pm)
Replying to: kneargarder (Apr 27, 2009 11:23 am) The problems I was having ( which I described when the car was new ) worked themselves out on their own. I've had the car about a year now and I don't experience the same problems. In my case it seems as if the transmission needed to get broken in so to speak.

#82 of 90 Update by gearup72 Jun 16, 2009 (7:17 pm)
I posted earlier about a 2005 corvette lemon ( auto trans failed ) that I bought new. After 3 years of driving a Mustang Cobra, I decided to give GM another chance. I bought a used 08 corvette with AT, Navi, F55, mag red, perf axle, dual mode. I really love this car and the auto transmission. I love the paddle shifters - they work well in my opinion. They are necessary to keep the RPM's high for spirited driving. The only thing I have noticed is there is a dead spot when going around corners at low speed. When the AT dowshifts from 3 to 2 it takes a little more time than it should. I hit the gas, the rpm's go up, and then the car lurches into 2nd gear. A little annoying but a small price to pay for the paddle shifters. Also, I would really recommend the F55 magnetic selective ride control too....
#83 of 90 My C5 6-speed manual pops out of reverse by bhill2 Aug 04, 2009 (12:04 pm)
unless you put pressure on the stick as you let the clutch out. That is, it doesn't completely engage with the shifter alone. As soon as the clutch is halfway out or so, it pops into gear and then it's fine. I took it to the dealer a couple of times and got the standard "we can't adjust it any better" and then learned to live with it. However, my wife, who drives the car less frequently than I do, just said that she thinks it's getting worse. Has anyone have a similar experience with this, and if so how did it turn out?
#84 of 90 2008 Trans problem by rolinski Sep 03, 2009 (4:07 am)
I have a 2008 coupe with 1300 miles. I took it to the dealer for a shift problem, it was stuck in in maybe 3rd and the engine light came on. The dealer fixed the problem with a pressure control solinoid. The problem I now have is when I put it in drive, there is a hesitation up to 5 seconds before it ingages. I took it back to the dealer again and they said that this is a normal condition. This doesn't seem normal to me. I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem?

Replying to: realtime (Apr 27, 2009 12:09 pm) So how long was the break-in period? How many miles did it take? I don't plan on driving mine more than 3-4k per year but I want to get this transmission issue worked out ASAP before any warranty expires. But I believe the warranty for the drive train is 5-year or 100k (someone please let me know if that is not the case for a 2008).

Replying to: bolivar (Sep 06, 2009 2:32 am) Thanks for the reply. To what are you referring when you say "that's not normal"? Do you mean the break-in period or the warranty or something else? Replies to this message: bolivar (Sep 08, 2009 2:28 am)

Replying to: kneargarder (Sep 07, 2009 6:11 am) I wasn't replying to you. Replying to rolinski. About his problem with a 5 second delay after shifting into gear before the car will move - that's not normal.
