135,000 Miles has several months down time but still pulling strong. Replaced the rear gear oil and it was gummy.
Side of the road issues:
1 Fuel Pump wiring broke after three fuel level sender repairs
2 Died in route due to wiring harness fried on the headers after new Engine install
3 Dead battery when rain shorted the relay for the Oil Cooler fan and it was on all day while in a parking lot.

Note none of the failures were car alone induced, always a previous repair or human involvemen or poor workmanship (Mine).

The damn C5 is a bargan to buy, hot rod and drive, mine still gets 28 MPH in 6th gear, 1,500 RPM at 70MPH!!!
