I took delivery on my LeMans Blue 2LZ Z06 a few weeks ago. All can say is this machine is every bit the masterpiece it was hyped-up to be. I could'nt be happier. It definately is thirstier than the C5 Z was!

My new Z06 has about 700 easy miles on it now, and the oil life gauge indicates 85% remaining. On my '02 Z, I'm pretty sure it would be greater than 90% at his point.

Has anyone else whose owned both seen a shorter oil life indication on the C6 Z?

Thanks,

-John

The oil life on the C6 Z is shorter than the C5 or the C6 505 hp is a little harder on the oil than 350 or 400 is...

I don't pay much attention to it as I change my oil every 3000 miles.

You can trust the DIC. If your not modified, it is not necessary to replace oil at 3K anymore. :thumbsup:
