I asked this question about an LT1 i found but now it's your turn. There's a C5 i'm looking at with 70K Miles on it. Now you high miles guys.. What problems have you ran into? Any major or Minor? Thanks

 

For me, my SS is at 70k, and i have had to replace my 02's, knock sensor, AC Fan, air pump and my car alarm is f*cked up. Also had to get a new set of tires

 

83,000 on my clock. I had to have the tranny rebuilt but I think it's because I beat on the car. Other than that I just had to replace the fluids and plugs and wires, nothing major.

 

no problems

 

65K on a 2001 WS6

Warped rotors, no surprise.

Trashed rear, so upgraded to 4.11

Oil consumption in the 1 Qt / 1K mile range

Bad cats, replaced under warranty

Frikkin cheap headlight motors, had to rebuild / replace

 

Just hit 60K a week ago. No issues at all except for the passenger side power window rolls up very weak and slow. I found if I have the car started and reving a bit it helps but still not as fast as the drivers side does with the car on or off.

 

Coming up on 56k and just rotors and speakers so far. But I baby it.

 

60K and no problems. 01 WS6.

 

just hit 72k on a 99 z28 the only real mechanical thing that went bad was the waterpump which was very easy to replace.other than that still runs great i had all general maintenance done myself,, plugs fuel filter ie. tune-up had brakes done at 57,000 just new pads and turned the rotors but still runs real good.how much is that c-5 vette? what year is it?

 

It's a 98 and it's 19,500. I honestly don't know if i'm going to get it yet. The LT1 i was looking at is 4K so if i buy the LT1 i'll have alot more money for mods.

 

for 19,500 i dont really think that a real good deal for that kinda mileage i know vettes are sexy as hell and do have a little more advantage than f-bodies but you can prolly get another ls1,f-body with the same mileage for like 11k but that just my 2 pennies if you got the funds go for it i would like to see more young drivers in vettes and not those ignorant old farts in them that never want to make a quick run.

 

Agreed. The Money isn't the Issue.. Just deciding what i want to do.

 

water pump

 

I'd sell you my 00 Z28 with 56K miles and in perfect condition for 19,500.00. Thats what I owe on it.
Its black in and out with t-tops and a 6 speed. 99% stock. Lid and shifter from SLP and SS wheels are the only mods.

 

I have almost 65k on mine. All the major, non suspension mods were done this winter at right around 62k. Things that I have replaced due to problems are: Water pump, passenger side window motor, trans tailshaft seal, clutch, brakes, and something else but it was minor, just cant think of it. Other than that, its been great.
