Looks good on paper but my TR-6060 was garbage. It was the main reason why I traded my C6 Z06, grinding gears....

nope my TR6060 was junk too. GM replaced mine 3 times. Was finally told it was a unrepairable problem. Never could get clean under full power shifts. Gears would grind all the way around the track. Also had the issue with the transmissions overheating and blowing oil out the seals. That was finally ruled a engineering flaw with plastic vent tubes melting under heat and closing up. Make the trans a bomb. Lost several races due to it. Lets hope for a better version this time around and if not I will be out there giving them all they can handle.

Hello guys;
I have 1600 miles on my C7. It's a manual transmission. I'm not sure if this is normal: there's a sound (I think from the clotch-tranny, like a loose gap between gear wheels backing up and down "clack-clack") when I start moving the car and change gears (if pressing the pedal) at low speed (more evident changing from 1st-2nd). Can anyone tell me if this is normal? I havent drive a manual Vette before (specially C7). I was thinking of taking it to the dealer but by my area we have some jerks that would lie to your face in order not to work. Some help please.... |
