Hold by front and back edge, stand on side of car, (windows down) engage one rear side, then other rear, front drops in place. Reverse to remove; lift front, slide one side slightly forward to dis-engage 1 rear pin, then the other.. Back edge pins are long enough to connect/dis-connect one at a time.

    A note on the 1-4 lockout, it is only active if the car is warmed up (coolant temp 167F, but the oil will probably still be a little too cold to romp on it), 20% throttle or less and 15-19mph. In normal driving it is never an issue for me, If you wind out first to 2200rpm or so you will never encounter it.

    Good job on the semi-walk around Bro. One of the best on the C6's I have seen. I have an '09 with active exhaust a feature you didn't cover but you may not have it on yours. I took the fuse out that opens and closes it and my exhaust is always open just a tip for guys who have not bought one yet. Sounds great at idle also and saved lots of money on having to buy a performance exhaust and it gains 8 Horsepower also at all RPMs!

      Hey Eagle, have you heard of the "mild to wild kit"? It replaces the fuse you removed, and comes with a remote so you can silence/loud your exhaust at a whim. Ridiculously easy Install! Install it so the butterfly valves are open when car is shut off. This position does not create a drain on your electrical system if I remember correctly. It's awesome when my wife is in our Z as she has delicate ears, lol. Cheers from Canada

    All due respect, but some of the advice is a bit ... off. 1) Not all Vettes have the assisted closing for the rear hatch. 2) Balancing a $2K targa panel over your head is risky. Get a solid grip on its edges. I'm a mid-50s Xer, and I don't really have any trouble with it ... Great advice for remembering to latch the targa. Good demo on getting in the car with a dead battery.

      The ones for which I see bargain-basement prices have all be damaged. Perhaps by people who precariously balance the panels over their heads?

    I’m 67 and have owned Corvettes for 51 years. My current is a ‘17 ZO6 manual and the only issue I have is getting in and out easily. Looking forward to the day power lift seats and grab bars will be available? 😂

    I am disabled and I have no problem with the glass off of my 1994 Corvette glass top which was very heavy because it was a see-through tinted glass top not the lightweight one that you have lol PS my 125 pound wife who bought me that car for my birthday had no problem with the top. I’m not by herself either lol.😊

    If funny you talk about the top. This was my first car after deployment and I used to take on and off the top with ease by myself. My friends who also had c6 used to trip out. I was a competitive powerlifter so I was pretty strong. Now that I’m older I’d rather get some help 😂

    It's not stupid: I found out that if you come from driving a diesel car, the 1st-to-4th IS ALWAYS CORRECT: it tells me to go into the 4th exactly when I would have gone from the 1st to 4th... it has never been wrong, not once! And when I drive lively, it NEVER prevents me from going into the 2nd.

    Just purchased my first C6. 2008 Base Z51 with manual transmission that I will only be driving once a week for fun. Does that engine lube trick really work? I will try as said, full clutch and full throttle and crank it over. Guess we'll see. Sweet car!

    • @Spirited_Driver
      @Spirited_Driver 7 місяців тому +1

      Yes it does. I do it every spring start after the car has been sitting for months. It will litterally just crank and build oil PSI until you let off the gas. I think every EFI engine does this, it shuts off the fuel system by holding the gas to the floor.

    1:48 No, us old guys just buy a C6 Z06. No top to remove, full 7.0 liters. I have the same upgraded cup wheels. Launch control only comes on 2010+ cars. I would never buy a used vette with a short-shifter installed. I actually wouldn't buy a C6 going forward. Just go to the GM website and see all the parts that have been cancelled. Love mine, but hate the parts situation now. Thanks

    Its easy to remove the targa top but i can see it being a bit awkward for shorter people because less leverage to reach... Plus, who carries shit above thier head in north america LMAO! But in all fairness, theres good tips in this video, and ill give a thumbs up. Also, not sure if its true, but I didn't think all C6's had launch control, i cant wait to see if it works on mine!
