What is the technical information you have to recommend do this maintenance of oils change before the factory recommendation? I mean, what is your base to say it should be done before, you can't tell me just because. Is this s technical recommendation or just a feeling?

@HorsePowerObsessed 6 ай бұрын

As stated in the video this is my opinion but based on cars in the past, the C7, GM recommended the first oil change be done at 500 miles due to break in material. Seems the same should be applied here. The transmission is the single most fragile component on this car so again, it seems to me doing filter changes more often could be beneficial since many that are familiar with this transmission state that the filter size is too small for the size of the transmission. At the end of the day it comes down to one thing. Engines/transmissions are expensive. Filters are cheap. It's easy/cheap insurance.

@HorsePowerObsessed 4 ай бұрын

The used the floor jack to make sure the lift arms didn't touch anything underneath. Perfectly safe to do. They did not adjust the transmission fluid because when you change the filter such a small amount comes out (1/32nd of a quart) it doesn't affect it enough to need adjusting. Eventually it will but we're talking many many filter changes. Also, the Z06 doesn't require the extra 2 quarts, it already comes with it from factory.

I have owned various generations of Corvettes since 1990, never had to change transmission fluid or filter and I have never had any engine or transmission problems. A big waste of money. No one checks your service records when you take your car for warranty work. I have never kept a single service record.

Is this an out of pocket cost or does it come with warranty or something when you buy the corvette?

You get one for free then the rest you pay for.

@@HorsePowerObsessed does one free one include both the oil change and the transmission filter change? I just bought a 24 Vette and literally didn’t even know till I saw your vid 😂

DCT filter, engine oil and filter changed at 550, 2300 and 3900 miles by me so far on my Z06…..

Along with engine oil analysis every change and one transmission analysis as well.

I'm pulling my oil every 2 or 3k. Why not? It burns oil. I did the dct filter myself at 7k.

Did he top off your transmission fluid?

@HorsePowerObsessed 8 ай бұрын

No. GM states that through the filter change process such a small amount of fluid is lost it isn't needed to top off.

@billmiller8782 4 ай бұрын

Actually you loose about 5-6 oz per canister change - not much your correct- especially if you added the additional 2qts for tracking. But if not - it is a double check that the factory filled the transmission correctly- then replace the lost fluid at the dealership’s expense ( after all any Service is expensive enough- 😊

@HorsePowerObsessed 4 ай бұрын

The Z06 doesn't need the extra 2 quarts. It comes from factory with that added already.

@RaleighRoofers 8 ай бұрын

Those fluids didn’t need changing Justin. So why???

@HorsePowerObsessed 8 ай бұрын

The oil has break in material in it (metal flakes, etc.) and the transmission has the same. Why let that gunk float around in there longer than necessary?
