- Skipping oil changes accelerates LT2 engine wear and voids the powertrain warranty; the high-revving V8 is sensitive to oil degradation.
- Neglecting brake fluid flushes reduces stopping power and increases risk of brake fade during track sessions or emergency braking.
- Delaying spark plug replacement beyond 100k miles can cause misfires, reduced fuel economy, and hard starting.
- Skipping coolant flushes leads to corrosion in the aluminum engine block and water pump failure, risking overheating and engine damage.
- Ignoring differential/transaxle inspection can miss early signs of wear from aggressive driving, leading to costly repairs.
Common issues at higher mileage
- 15,000+ mi
- Brake dust accumulation on rotors (carbon-ceramic if optioned); requires regular cleaning to prevent buildup and maintain braking performance.
- 30,000+ mi
- Dual-clutch transmission shudder or hesitation during low-speed driving; often linked to software calibration or clutch wear.
- 50,000+ mi
- Rear differential/transaxle whine or grinding noise; indicates gear wear from aggressive driving or insufficient lubrication.
- 60,000+ mi
- Magnetic Ride Control damper leaks; the dampers are sealed and require replacement, not repair.
- 80,000+ mi
- Coolant hose deterioration in the mid-engine bay; heat exposure causes premature cracking and leaks.
