Hey everyone,
Getting ready to do plugs on my 2018 ZR2 w/90k miles. While I have everything torn apart, I'm wondering if there any reason to do (or not do) the coil packs at the same time. Is this a "high ware" part that needs to be replaced at the same time or would I be wasting my money.
Along these lines, any other stuff I should be on the lookout for? I plan on replacing the intake manifold gaskets while I'm in there.
Picture showing the part I'm specifically talking about.
Just got a V11. Vacuumed a few rugs and now the pivot point on the cleaning head doesn't move freely. If you extend the vacuum away from you, the head stays tipped up a t a 90 degree angle. I tried to blow dust out of there with an air compressor but it still feels like a plastic-on-plastic rub.
Anyone else dealt with this? Clean it more? Lube it with dry lube? Support/warranty?

Every time I go to remove a record from my turntable I can hear the static electric build up. I use a carbon fiber brush every time I put a record down.
My question is how do I fight this?
Like the tile says, I'm a bit new to turntables and I have a basic question:
If you're coming out of the line out (vs. phono) do you need to ground your turntable? My receiver doesn't have a grounding post on the back. If I do need to ground, what's a good way to go about this? I'm a little bit embarrassed to be asking this since I'm a live sound engineer. I know why you would need to ground (60Hz ground loop elimination - or maybe I'm wrong on this?), I just don't have any experience with turntables.
I have an AT LPW40 in the mail and am trying to get everything I need together before it gets here.
Any other bits of wisdom you'd like to share would be appreciated. Excited to go on
So I have a 2018 S as a rental right now and the tank trunk lid and locking ring (the part the hinge attached to and the lock keys into) flew off as I was riding down the highway the other day. I'm trying to get a warranty claim going but I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this? How is it held on? Is it an adhesive or is it actually bolted down? Any help here would be appreciated.
