I have a 2004 C5 Corvette with 118,000 miles on it. Its a daily driver that I have really not done anything with. I'm sorry to say even suggested maintenance I have slacked on. Any way I can notice sluggishness in the car over the last few months and would like to see what I can do to this to "revive" it?

Thanks for any advice! Pete

It depends on how much money you looking to spend on it. You could do something as little as catch up on your suggested maintenance to installing a new motor with some crazy forced induction on it. <-- That will "RIVIVE IT"!:D

That's some good miles! The C5 doesn't seem to mind you being hard on it. At least not so far (x my fingers!)!!!

So the first thing, I know you saw the other thread, so pull your codes and post them up here in this thread, and lets see what ails your car!

That mileage is high enough I'd say other than the default: electrical (batteries, alternators, etc...when the electrical goes weird on a C5 it does WACKY things!), it might be time for valve springs, timing chain, maybe. General internal wear stuff might be getting you down.

But pull those codes and make sure it's not fuel issues or electrical first! No need to pull the engine apart just yet (unless, you know, you WANT to...it IS kinda fun! lol) :eek:

With the lake of proper maintance, he is still writting down all the codes! :D Sorry BMW guy, just having a little fun!
