I changed my 2ss oil at 750. The oil was clean but when I cut open the filter a good amount of sparkles were on the dirty side. Glad I changed it, engine sounded better too. In a recent video I think it was on SavageGeese a GM engineer said the silicone sealers can cause foaming in the oil, so that's a reason for an early change. Did the differential at 1500 and it looked new with little material on the magnet.
@Hot-1LE Жыл бұрын
Good to hear! Funny enough i just saw that savage geese video last night lol and yes your correct about the sealers. From a GM mechanic I know he said diffs can have a lot of contaminants and some dont. Just kinda depends. This one did have a fair amount but nothing out of the ordinary.

Great video! Curious though where did you see differential at 500 miles. I had 1500 marked for that and the track prep doesnt even mention it. I was just told 1500 by a gm tech. So far I'm at 900 miles and have done 2 oil changes already one at 250 and one at 800 because they were 6 months apart. I've done it by the book as you described on my 2ss 1le though. Other then the 80 mph rule. On Phoenix highways your getting passed only doing 80 so I've hit 90's without even noticing just keeping flow in the left lane. That was never going to happen lol

Good job bro! Actually your right, the manuals say first at 1500 miles, then after your first track day! ok I'm being a little over the top with it at 600 miles, but itll get another at 1500 and then be done for a bit or depending on my track use. Sounds like your barely driving it haha, I love how people keep the miles off these. Mines the same way, most of the miles was the drive home.

Let the clutch break in so no hard high rpm shifts if you can control that lol. When you get it do light braking no hard stops. Drive it for a few miles light braking and then go get something to eat so the rotors can cool down so you get proper bedding of the brakes. Aside from that you should be fine man! I went over 80 a few times. It happens engine wont blow up lol. Just take it a bit easy stay under 4k rpm if ya can and just enjoy it bro. Congrats again. Hard cars to find.

@@Hot-1LE Awesome, thanks! I also had another question. I know we aren’t supposed to go above 4k rpm during break in (manual says for 1,500 miles), and yesterday when I was driving (I’m at 700 miles now) I had my arm resting right behind the shifter and accidentally click the mode changer button while driving. It went from tour to sport to track all while I was slowing down and RPM’s hit 4.5k for about 10 seconds, do you think I should be concerned?

Can you not take it back to the dealer for this oil change under the first year free oil change service with a new purchase?
@Hot-1LE Жыл бұрын
I could. I dont trust the dealers to touch the car. In my 1ss 1le the dealer put 15w50 oil in it. It takes 0w40. Drove it home and dumped the oil and did it myself. At this point its easy reassurance for me to just pay myself.

Ok 500miles oil change 1500 2oil change how look at the rear-end at 2000 metal fileing for sure
@Hot-1LE Жыл бұрын
Ya the rear end having metal glitter is normal thats why they do the magnetic plugs. But def good to change it early and on a maintenance basis depending how you drive the car

I really hope you had Jack stands under the car when you work , and don't just trust a jack. I know a former mechanic who did, and he's no longer with us when his jack failed and crushed him.
@Hot-1LE Жыл бұрын
There was a jack stand right next to the lift. I use both incase the stand gives out. Thank you for looking out for me!

Anybody here think it's a very stupid idea to stop production of the Camaro in January 2024. When there's not going to be any challengers And chargers made that year and the Dark horse is going to be marked up big time And twenty twenty four will be back to m s r p price range cause mark UPS are already disappearing and will be gone completely by twenty twenty four Except for the dark horse are any others limited production
