Happy Birthday to your boys! 🎈
Happy birthday to your boys
Life is good Rick and Chuck
Thanks for all your info,
Filter at 3.5k, fluid and filter at 8k through Dodson fill line. Swapped brakes to Girodisc and Carbotech for z51. Looks great with tridents and work better! Zeus looks awesome.
Great Tech Tuesday Rick and Chuck!!
LOVE the oil demonstration!!🙂
The ridges on the nacelles of the pace car model are not vents they are where the extra lights are installed that are required on pace cars
Wouldn’t they just put the top up and put them on the roof as usual.
@@ivanreed2901 I watched that race. That pace car was driven on the track with the top down every time it went out on the track during the race.
I know, a method to my madness, stay tuned - thank-you
Rick,
The only GM certified grill protector are made by Scrape Armor. You can order through them directly or from GM now. They will be selling the front and side intake guards for the C8 Z06 on release date too. R&D was delayed for the C8 Stingray side intake guards to develop the Z06 guards by release date!
I was selling Scrape Armor guards at Corvette's of Carlisle this year! The reason their products are approved at Ron Fellows, they provide 85% air flow and nut & bolt mounting vs 75% air flow and zip ties.
Please tell them Shane Hric sent you or any of your subscribers in the comments should they order.
Thanks

Did I hear that the c8 DCT has two filters,could you please

Keep up the great show!

Victor,NY.
It does...more coming up...you don't have to worry about second one until a full transmission fluid replacement, which is part of our recommended service for owners - will be doing a vlog on that
Happy birthday to the boys....
Just had oil and DCT filter done, 7250 mi, no issues! 👊🏻👍
God blessed you. 7251 it's a pile of shavings.
I got the rapid blue c8 with blue interior here in Florida waiting for the z06
Ok I have to. Love all Videos. But. The glitch ,display going black. Honestly ( all these electronics on This Car). It happens. So if Space shuttle has a glitch 😳. Open the door? 🤷♂️ GM needs to Fix these for the customer
I can’t find anywhere. Is the corvettes trickle charger 🔌 surged protected? I have mine plugged into a extension cord which is connected to a light bulb socket. There isn’t any plug 🔌 ins in the rental units garage that’s why I have to use the light bulb for a plug. THANKS 😊 I LIVE YOUR TECH TUESDAYS ❤
Happy Birthday to the boys and great info as always!
It’s great to be a proud father. May your family stay safe and healthy Rick.
That was a great trick on the C7 key fob and I had to just try. Unfortunately now I noticed on my rear tire with 3k miles on them the tire split at the rim about 2 inches. Never a dull moment.
Great to see ya back on the channel! Happy Birthday to the boys! Hope you had a blast today in Pitt 👍💙
Good evening bud I hope all is well keep up the great work great information👍🏽
Buddy of mine has a 2021 CB with 18,000+miles. Daily driver, all he has done is scheduled fluid changes. He has had no issues. Tires look great too!
From paragon low brake dust pads are carbotech ct28951r and ct28951f they work great hope this helps
When does the new C8 come out? Asking for a friend...
DO you mean C9?!?!? m
Have a great track night and Happy Birthday to young men.
Rick I want a shirt. I would have been there but, I went to Pensacola, FL to vettes on the beach sponsored by Miracle mile corvette club.
Please do more Viewer Mail and Fr. Chuck!!
Rick I was on the my Chevy site putting my C8 together and the screen guards came up as an option
Love that show T-shirt.
Happy birthday to both the boys, you are such a great Dad!
Cover up the grill area! LMAO! Go Chuck!
Happy birthday guys👍🎉🎉🎉
The shirts available to purchase online ?
Another great Tech Tuesday Rick! Lots of good info to save for later.
My wife's '21 Blazer RS has screen issues where it goes blank and then reboots while we are driving. It's not just C8's.
Love the valuable lessons and hands-on demos. Thank you, Chuck.
Rick, pass a Happy Birthday to Jacob and Ryan for me. Thank you for giving me my birthday present a week early, by putting my C8 order into your September cycle.
Soon I won't be dreaming, I'll be driving. You're the best. Whoo Hoo!
Outstanding content as usual guys.. thank you 🇺🇸🙏😎
Ceramic no dust
Change them when I get the car before u drive it.
They will seat nice in the new rotors
Well they are trying to make it correct, i did not except car and they are placing new order due to their mistake. Somewhere during the submitting of order it got changed or missed.
Thanks for the info guys.
Happy Birthday to your sons and hope you enjoyed your track day. 👍👍👍
Rick, I placed a order with a different dealer before I knew about you sry. When the order was sent in the front lift did not get ordered some how it got missed should I except it or will I be okay without it .l’m not happy. I sure wish I would’ve found you sooner. Keep you the videos very educational
Thank you Rick for taking the time away from your family to do this video It means a lot to us the content is always excellent
Great content Rick. Regarding the Scrape Armor grill guards I noticed GM part # in a comment below. I ordered mine from Ciocca as my CA dealer could not get them at the time(2 months ago.) They fit really well and I noticed that all of Ron Fellows school cars have these grill guards. Worth the $399. Thanks again for the ceramic brake pad info from Paragon as I plan to change to these soon. Keep up the great Tech Tuesdays with Chuck!
Happy to hear you finally got track insurance. I was the guy that told you that your regular car insurance will not cover damage/liability in any race etc event. That came from my brother who was a senior insurance advisor/investigator.......
Happy 20th Birthday to the boys looking forward towards Chuck putting on your clear engine cover Rick.
GM rep at Carlisle said IF you change your DCT filter early “ before 7500 miles “ they recommend changing it again at 7500 miles
By early I’m guessing anything under 3K IDK.
CORRECT!
The blank screen happens to me on rare occasion. After a bit it comes back so I am not too worried. Be nice to know why it does this...
The grill guards being asked about are sold through the Chevrolet accessories’ website, the scrape armor product. GM helped with their design with CAD data so they’re a bit different than others.
Hi Rick, Chuck and everyone!!!
FIRST WOMAN WHO COMMENTED! LOL!
How does Chuck find the time to keep up with all the information and data that it takes?
Would love to hear what he goes through for his certification and his wealth of knowledge
Another great Chuck Tuesday.
Hope the track day went well. Tell the boys happy birthday from me. Glad we could catch up the other day.
Can you add a date or episode number to videos
My 2021 C8 has 1500 miles on its oil change an it was in storage for 5 months my charge oil light is on,hard to believe I need a oil change
There are a crap ton of Steves in the world!!! 😂😂😂 Loved the Indy 500 clip and of course the whole Tech Tuesday vlog.
Great tech Tuesday! Hope you had an awesome time in pittsburgh (I’m like 45 minutes from the track!). Looking forward to hearing what you thought.
YES!!! You raised them right Rick! PACKERS FANS!!! GO PACKERS!!
Go Pack Go
if that"s what progress is I'll stick with a c5
C5 awesome cars!
drive it like you stole it RICK...the c8 non z51 is capable over 160 and more... now if your drivability isn't good don't try it.
Thanks, I will say this, I should have and can do better
I enjoy every episode I've seen. Did Chuck say that the first DCT filter was supposed to be free as well or should I turn my hearing aids up?
Chuck👍👍👍so awesome information
Always a joy 👍🏿
had my car for almost 2 years and still don't have 5000 miles on it yes lol and what do you think about putting Amsoil vs the Mobil one?
Rick & Chuck - I watch all your videos but I especially love tech Tuesday - never miss one. Have a couple of bones to pick about todays though.
1) I think the guy asking about the DCT filter change at 4000 miles wasn't really asking it it was a good idea to do it at that mileage. I got the impression he was asking if he could do himself or was there something the dealer has to do. And the answer is that the dealer needs to do the flush procedure with the computer.
2) In answer to the question about grill guards, as others have noted, the Scrape Armor guards are the one and only approved by GM. I love Paragon equipment and have purchased many of their products but lately you've been sounding like they are a sponsor.
On the radiator guards, I'd like to offer a tidbit - If you have a car with the carbon fiber grill bezel, the ONLY ONE that will work on that car that does not use zip ties is the one from Scrape Armor, which is GM approved. Other screens' brackets won't work properly with nuts that are molded into the bezel. I learned this as I had to do an RMA on the Paragon Performance version as I do have the carbon fiber bezel.
My sons 33 bday today. 9/20 is an awesome day
I love tracking my c8. Thank you for the tracking information…… I know exactly the thrill and feeling you get tracking this car….. Let’s do it together someday…..
That formula music at the end of the video is lousy.
I'll get the first year service on my 2022 C8 soon. It's got around 6,500 miles since last November and I'll go to a race track in KS from IL next month. Yeah, this topic is a very important but somehow confusing one. Thank you for sharing the information with us repeatedly.
Where did you get the INDY model? GO PACKERS !!!!!
Mint Models.
@@SocalGT CORRECT
Good stuff Rick ..... best wishes for the boys! How can I get a shirt from the show? Any extra in large? Very 😎 cool
thanks and sorry they ran out day of the show on the shirts
More info on the two transmission filters please and do they change both b4 7500 miles? Ty
More next week for sure
Rick, great information, you are the best. You said 2 years for the DCT filter change..??? I thought it had to be within the first year or 7500 miles which ever comes first. I know the oil change is that. And I've heard you can pay for your oil change and then wait up to 2 years for the DCT filter change. I'm confused. Is it one year or 2 for the DCT filter???????????????? Thanks for your time, we really do appreciate it.
🇵🇷Rick you should set up a private discord for your customers, so that they can get in contact with you sooner opposed to waiting with all the other questions that are not related to your customers. Will there be a software update for the glitch in the info screen that doesn't come up right away now sometimes?
Thanks, GM never tells us in advance about updates, we just watch for memo's when they occur and for C8, you get a pop up sacreen when they are available...thanks for watching
I bought the grill guards and had them installed at dealer and it was a gm part now I found threw the accessories .
Part No. : 19433251
Rick, I placed a order with a different deal before I knew about you sry. But when my order was sent in they didn’t put front lift on the order should I except it, or will I be okay without it, I’m not happy
Tech TUESDAY QUESTION brake fluid spirited driving: Rick and Chuck should I get higher temperature type brake fluid in my 2020 HTC “ spirited or even non spirited” (that’s what I call sassy) to the higher temperature type brake fluid?*********TECH TUESDAY Question from Stormtrooper! May THE FORCE BE WITH YOU both and Chewbacca! Thanks guys!
TECH TWO FOLLOW UP QUESTION: on 2020 “check oil”. On the 2020 is car warmed to 170-175? AND with ENGINE RUNNING? Or, on 2020 model no need for 170-175 temps and can’t keep engine running for a mere checking oil
Remember don’t forget the C8 maintenance info! Can you get the equipment installed now on current models to tell us status of filter; can it be an add on?
Drive it yes but we need Rick and Chuck’s Tech Tip Book for C8 Corvette?
And hey disconnect battery wait…never heard about that!!!!
Let’s write the techs and tips book!!!!!
Rick! You're a Packers fan? I had no idea! Great minds think alike! 😁
More of a Brett Farve fan but yes I am
@@RickCorvetteConti Brett Favre definitely changed the game! No doubt about it!
I just put the Radiator Grill Store guards on my 2022. High quality guards!
How do you install the protectors? I have a c8 2022
@@reginaldsmall3766 hi Reginald. There are some great UA-cam videos and videos from Radiator Grill Store. The four front grills are pretty simple. Just lower the panels below the radiator and push guards into place. The two side vents require pushing and bending the guards into place. It takes a bit of pressure and fineness. Took me about an hour total time for all six. Looks fantastic and guards against damage. Studying the videos will make the job go smoothly.
@@marcmiller17 thank you
@@marcmiller17 thanks for the info
I tried to get a tranny flush and filter change to help prevent any of the debris that gets trapped in and around solenoids during break in and low mile cars from damaging anything. The dealer refuses to do it unless the car has codes being thrown by the transmission. By then it is often too late. Ive seen countless posts of others having it done, its an 8-10 minute procedure. They currently still have the car due to other warranty issues, but I dont even want to talk to them anymore after how they treated me. So id like to ask this here. If the car makes it to 7500 filter change will they even do the 8-10 flush procedure then? Is it part of the filter change? Or only done if the tranny is throwing codes? Thanks
I have a question. I have a faulty infotainment screen in my 2019 ZO6. It’s under warranty, but the dealer can’t get the screen. The service writer told me it comes from a Cell Phone company and is back ordered. It’s been 4 months. Can you shed any light on this?
GM approved grille guards are made by Scrape Armor, GM part no. 19433251
Thanks Rick, GM (19433251) Scrape Armor Grill Guards
