Are you on the ZR-1 net? Check out Tom Henry Chevy and see what he can do for you.

yes, I will give Tom a call, the dealer quotes 500 to replace the P/S hoses and serp belt. seems steep.

That is ****ing outrageous!

One more reason I do all my own work I may buy my parts from the dealer or at least GM parts direct but damn if I let them work on my car!!!


I let me wife take my Z06 to get the oil changed and I told her it would be fine to take it to the dealer whoa 80 bucks later!!!!


It doesn't cost that much to change engine oil!


screw the dealer I will always do everything within my capabilities myself!

most of the time I do my own work, in this case, I just had hernia surgery and the car is up for sale so I can't really wait.

I will contact them with the prices I've found from doing some research. I send ALOT of buz their way so hopefully they will give me a bit of a break.

I won't be healed up for another couple of months.

man I hate getting ripped off!!! but right now I don't have too much choice but to have someone else do the work.

anyone in Va willing to give me a hand??? thanks!!!
