How do you all break your cars in? And Yes I split my thumb nail open on that wrench. Still feeling it 😅

@penguinkernel Год назад

I changed my 2ss oil at 750. The oil was clean but when I cut open the filter a good amount of sparkles were on the dirty side. Glad I changed it, engine sounded better too. In a recent video I think it was on SavageGeese a GM engineer said the silicone sealers can cause foaming in the oil, so that's a reason for an early change. Did the differential at 1500 and it looked new with little material on the magnet.

@Hot-1LE Год назад

Good to hear! Funny enough i just saw that savage geese video last night lol and yes your correct about the sealers. From a GM mechanic I know he said diffs can have a lot of contaminants and some dont. Just kinda depends. This one did have a fair amount but nothing out of the ordinary. Glad tour taking care of your ride nice and early. Enjoy it!

At 461 miles currently on my 2023 Z. One more round trip to work and I'll be at 505 miles and will be doing the same thing you did👍😁. Thanks for the video, and yes, I've done a few pulls myself...not to redline, but did go a bit over 4,000 a couple times😬😬. I mean, let's be real...how can you NOT do a handful of pulls with this car right?. Hopefully nothing with the engine or rear end is screwed up because of it😮. As of now everything still runs and feels fine! 😁👍👌

@Hot-1LE Год назад

Awesome car man! Yeah its basically impossible to not do a little pull here and there lol. It'll be fine im confident of it. These cars are so over built. This whole break in process got the green flag from a GM mechanic as well I been following for some time. He says early oil and diff is one of the best things you can do. Glad to see your loving your Z.

Nice video man! My apologies, I did bust a laugh when you smashed your hand when pulling on the wrench 😂, been there. Only part I screwed up on my 1LE was the diff fluid. Waited over 5k before I changed it. Totally forgot.

@JZ_Cars 10 месяцев назад

@@Hot-1LE Let me ask you this fella, are people still able to order a new ZL1? I have been checking the used market and folks want 68-72k for a car that has 10k miles on it. A brand new one stickers in that range. Doesn’t make much sense for me to buy used if what I am seeing is accurate and I can go find a new one with the spec I like. What are your thoughts? I’m near Atlanta GA and there seem to be a decent amount of new inventory with a manual. My only other real must have is on color. I always like my cars in Black. Although I will say your Red is real dawg gone nice 👍

@Hot-1LE 10 месяцев назад

Well man technically you can but a lot of dealers arent taking orders and it will be sheer luck if you can get an order with an allocation right now. Your best bet is finding one on chevys website and calling the dealer. Almost all of then are going to push addons and markups so be prepared to try to haggle or just try another dealer. Its an effort for sure! Appreciate your support man i wish you luck. Total pain trying to get one of these cars right now

It took me over a month to break in my 2021 Camaro SS 1LE. 1500 miles of easy driving... Changed the rear diff fluid at 1500 miles too. Oil is the life blood, and the oil filter is the liver... Having a 6 speed makes it easy to vary speeds..

I'm waiting for my second 2SS 1LE, I usually trade it in every 2 years, this is the last one lol, I have never done the break in, only the oil change, I never had an issue with the car but then again I only keep it for about 2 or 3 years

@Chasethe1le Год назад

Great video! Curious though where did you see differential at 500 miles. I had 1500 marked for that and the track prep doesnt even mention it. I was just told 1500 by a gm tech. So far I'm at 900 miles and have done 2 oil changes already one at 250 and one at 800 because they were 6 months apart. I've done it by the book as you described on my 2ss 1le though. Other then the 80 mph rule. On Phoenix highways your getting passed only doing 80 so I've hit 90's without even noticing just keeping flow in the left lane. That was never going to happen lol

@Hot-1LE Год назад

Good job bro! Actually your right, the manuals say first at 1500 miles, then after your first track day! ok I'm being a little over the top with it at 600 miles, but itll get another at 1500 and then be done for a bit or depending on my track use. Sounds like your barely driving it haha, I love how people keep the miles off these. Mines the same way, most of the miles was the drive home.

@Chasethe1le Год назад

@@Hot-1LE ahh good to know I didn't miss something lol. Yea part of it is I've been waiting for the break in to do more enthusiastic driving. The other reason is i work from home and also have my own daily and my wife's RDX so I have to look for reasons to drive sometimes lol I'm not really intending to make it a garage queen but that's just how it's going so far. Once I break it in I'll be doing more canyon runs and hopefully tracking it!

@D_Morgan Год назад

First oil change was free from GM with my ‘22. I certainly didn’t do it at 500 miles but to each their own.

@Hot-1LE Год назад

Im just following the high performance supplement that came with the car. Do what you will with your vehicle. My first free oil change on my 1ss1le the dealer put in 15w50.

Bro congratulations again on that car. You inspired me to get one. Been 3 months now looking one manual zl1 in inventory until I found one just a day ago. Picking it up in a month 1,300 miles from home. Any advise on the break in period when driving that many highway miles?

@Hot-1LE 9 месяцев назад

Thats awesome man! Congrats! During the first 500 miles try to vary your speed and not go over 80. So i cruised around 60 then 70 then 75 and would drop it back down here and there. Let the clutch break in so no hard high rpm shifts if you can control that lol. When you get it do light braking no hard stops. Drive it for a few miles light braking and then go get something to eat so the rotors can cool down so you get proper bedding of the brakes. Aside from that you should be fine man! I went over 80 a few times. It happens engine wont blow up lol. Just take it a bit easy stay under 4k rpm if ya can and just enjoy it bro. Congrats again. Hard cars to find.

got one recently! going to do my oil change and diff fluid change around 500-520 miles :) do i do this again at 1500? just clarifying lol, ty!

@Hot-1LE 4 месяца назад

Awesome congrats! You can double check the high performance manual supplement. But yes oil 500 and 1500. Diff is cheap and easy to do so might as well do it at both as well. Or diff at 1500 and after first track day

@@Hot-1LE do you also recommend an oil catch can?

@Hot-1LE 4 месяца назад

I dont run one myself. You gotta lift the s/c to install it and GM could blame that for warranty engine repairs so I dont. In some more miles when i tune I probably will.

Can you not take it back to the dealer for this oil change under the first year free oil change service with a new purchase?

@Hot-1LE Год назад

I could. I dont trust the dealers to touch the car. In my 1ss 1le the dealer put 15w50 oil in it. It takes 0w40. Drove it home and dumped the oil and did it myself. At this point its easy reassurance for me to just pay myself.

Best thing you could have done was swap out to amsoil from Mobil 1.

So only do this if your tracking your car?

@Hot-1LE 10 месяцев назад

I would be doing this even if i didint track it. But its up to you. Def do it if tracking (per gm)

I really hope you had Jack stands under the car when you work , and don't just trust a jack. I know a former mechanic who did, and he's no longer with us when his jack failed and crushed him.

@Hot-1LE Год назад

There was a jack stand right next to the lift. I use both incase the stand gives out. Thank you for looking out for me!

Anybody here think it's a very stupid idea to stop production of the Camaro in January 2024. When there's not going to be any challengers And chargers made that year and the Dark horse is going to be marked up big time And twenty twenty four will be back to m s r p price range cause mark UPS are already disappearing and will be gone completely by twenty twenty four Except for the dark horse are any others limited production

@operationtruth288 Год назад

Totally agree to disagree.
