    Normal Ammeter Reading?

    Thanks for the response. I'm thinking the old battery, which died early, never was able to build a full charge and that's why the voltage regulator allowed a 14 volt constant charge trying to do so. Now that I have a new battery, the charge starts at over 14 volts and scales back to about 12.5...

    Normal Ammeter Reading?

    What is the normal ammeter voltage for my 07 Denali? For the past three years my ammeter has read 14 volts or slightly higher at all times. Last week my vehicle was dead in the driveway. I charged the battery overnight, took it to the dealer and noticed the ammeter was reading about 12 volts on...

    Rust stained chrome rims.

    Turtle wax chrome polish in the spring. Look ok since then with regular car washes. Pitting is another story. I don't really have a pitting problem. The rust color was probably thrown off from the brake rotors. I have similar staining on the inside of the wheels on my Vette. Since a quick...

    Denali or LTZ

    Really? I just went outside and looked at mine. No such message inside my fuel filler door. You must have ordered the optional fuel filler door octane message sticker. I thought about it but the extra 3 bucks for that option would have put my payment out of reach. :giggling:

    Well here we go again!

    Get on your knees every day and thank God that we don't get all of the government we pay for. If we did, life would be a hopeless and unrewarding endeavor!:ack:

    Denali or LTZ

    The manual for my Denali says regular which is what I've used since new. Premium is unnecessary and a waste of cash. NO spark knock or performance issues whatsoever. This truck flat hauls ass. 0 to 60 in the sixes. This is a muscle truck. I have some feel for performance since my other ride is a...

    Rust stained chrome rims.

    I'm leaving the truck next week. There are some service updates that need to be performed and they will look at the wheels at that time. Yes they use salt but the front rotors on my Vette have not stained my chrome rims and the same with my wife's Acura TL's aftermarket TSW chrome rims. She...

    Rust stained chrome rims.

    Yesterday I looked at my factory optional 20 inch chrome rims on my Denali and the front rims have rust stains on them, the inside of the wheels are yellow in color and the chrome is starting to pit. The rotors are throwing off rust and staining the chrome. Chrome polish will remove the stain...

    Denali or LTZ

    With the 6.2 and the 6 speed, this is a Muscle Truck. I mean this truck hauls. 0 - 60 in the sixes! The exhaust has a nice rumble at idle when you are standing behind the truck. Sounds almost as good as the stock exhaust on my C6.

    Trip odometer - Trip A and Trip B

    The oil life remaining message does not take into account the fact that synthetic is in the pan. I change every 5,000 mi. with synthetic which may be sooner than necessary but I treat my rides to clean oil just for being good to me!:)

    Is it just me?

    OK, so my eyes are not fading out after all. Thanks for confirming my opinion. I too find my self turning on the parking lights to light up the dials but then have to remember to turn them off. Somebody dropped the ball here. Instruments should be readable easily without resorting to turning...

    Trip odometer - Trip A and Trip B

    I read it in the owner's manual. They indicate that the trip odometer can be set for trip A and trip B. Still haven't figured out how to do it!

    Trip odometer - Trip A and Trip B

    It sure has the potential to be. I think nobody knows it exists which is too bad. The Corvette Forum rocks. Lots of participants and a mountain of information. Have learned a lot and saved hundreds of dollars from reading the posts. I hope this forum finally catches on. Meanwhile I'm still in...

    Trip odometer - Trip A and Trip B

    The manual for my 07 Denali mentions the ability to set the trip odometer for Trip A and Trip B. I like to use the trip B in my other cars to record the last oil change. It looks like I only have one trip odometer although the manual says I can set both. They just don't tell you how to do it...

    Window lock problem

    My turn to help. I read in the manual last night that only the back windows lock out. I think it's an I. Q. test for new owners.

    Is it just me?

    Thanks for the response. You've solved the brightness knob mystery. Maybe my eyes are going and I'm just finding out but on the way into my office this morning it was overcast but not gloomy and I could barely read the oil pressure guage. Maybe it is just me! The C6 is the best Corvette I've...

    Is it just me?

    New member, first post, although I hang out on the Corvette Forum, C6 section on a regular basis. I just picked up my new Denali two days ago. Is it just me or does anyone else find the instruments hard to read unless the parking or headlamps are on? The background is black, needles red and...
