Can Chevrolets get engine sludge?

Yes, regular oil changes really ARE important! If you’re driving around with old motor oil, the broken-down fluid (and resulting debris) isn’t protecting your engine parts. In fact, it may even be causing slow damage to your Chevrolet Corvette’s engine! Routine oil changes may seem like an insignificant maintenance task, but trust us – your future self will thank you.

Do I need to follow Chevrolet's recommended maintenance schedule?

Yes! Chevrolet has written a maintenance schedule for your Corvette. Since they made your vehicle, they know it well! Your manufacturer recommended maintenance schedule gives you solid guidelines for the frequency of specific services, and it can help you know when to replace certain parts before they cause secondary issues in your car.

What should I tell the technician when I bring my Chevrolet to the shop?

No one likes having to get repair service on their trusty Chevrolet Corvette, but you can help minimize the hassle. As soon as you notice something that doesn’t seem right in your vehicle, make a note of the date and what happens (and write it down so you don’t forget!). Are there new noises coming from the engine? Does something smell funny in your A/C vents? The more information you can give to your technician, the better! We’ll be able to find the root of the problem quickly and address it before it gets any worse.

What does a radiator do, anyway? It assists in keeping your engine temperature within a safe range. When the radiator isn't working properly, your engine can overheat and potentially break down.

Not sure what signs could indicate a faulty radiator? An abnormally high engine temperature, low coolant light on your dashboard, or coolant leaks below your car could all signify that you need radiator repair.
