[@gareth3500]

[@DADDYO3]

I drive a 19 Impala as my daily. it was a rental. it has 41.000 miles on it I paid $19.000 it was not wrecked. and yes they are amazing cars.

[@howardkoster4026]

Randy, back in 1986, a deer ran directly into my then new '86 Cougar. Yep, it looked just like this Impala...

[@TheWhatsupbgf]

Randy the trans is mounted in the back on the rear axle. Torque tube connects them

[@tomtheplummer7322]

I knew a lady that worked 2nd and 3rd shift. She totaled 7 cars hitting dear commuting to and from work in only a few years. Thank goodness she never got hurt.

[@Mike.D.843]

The C5 has the transmission in the back. There is no dip stick. You have to raise the car (level) and remove the fill plug to check the fluid level.

[@christopherjohnson520]

Cool ,I'll let my wife know, I'd grab a c6 if ever have toy money

[@jakesgonecrazy08]

I came looking for this comment before I commented it lol.

[@ChrisVargasrpht2000chris]

I think someone has walked in high heels before.

[@hobiem3378]

Randy quick tip. you can check the codes on the C5 Hold the options button while pushing the fuel button 4 times then it will display the codes but make sure you hit the reset button till you see the mileage first

[@valengreymoon5623]

The Transmission on the 1999 Corvette is located in the rear of the vehicle. The Transmission also contains the rear end drive assembly. It is not located on the rear of the engine block as in a traditional vehicle. There is a Drain plug on the bottom of the transmission gear box assembly, as well as a fill/check plug on the side to add and check fluid levels. So, you'd have to have it level and get under it to check.

[@waynemiller9574]

Common solution for your traction ,abs light is a module that goes bad that's on the left front comer next to the radiator where all the brake lines go into and can be removed and sent out for repair in most cases and you still can use the car with it removed.

[@FlyingWheels]

Great vette! I love the c5s!

[@bartdaw6681]

That corvette has the Z51 option. The ride control light will come on if the car is started 3 or more times without the car moving. It will reset when it senses movement over 5 mph.

[@henkbakker3588]

Hey Randy, I hope you will have the winning bid on the C5 😍

[@mjayp320]

The C5 model of the popular Corvette was produced from 1997 to 2004. The C5 does not have a dipstick to check the transmission fluid. The fluid level must be checked by raising the car and accessing the fill plug next to the transmission pan. The car must be raised sufficient to safely access the area.

[@boonemathis225]

Just came inside from working on my own car (2002 Mercury Grand marquis) and saw this and it made my day

[@AutoAuctionRebuilds]

Thanks man!!

[@MellysWorld01]

Thanks Randy for your support!!!! The SS are blah when stock but with ur own flare they turn into what they should’ve been like out of the factory! Oh I’m happy to see that I’m not the only one that uses the same area for my change spot 😂

[@lirr408]

Ray Mears (a UK survival expert) Once said''if you want to drive into the desert use a land rover,if you want to get out of the desert drive a Landcruiser..'' 😋😁

[@scottmurray6977]

Your tachometer is inop. Check the harmonic balancer and make sure it is not coming apart. You will see it wobble. That is a major problem which will cause belt noise. The AC light is blinking due to either low refrigerant or bad compressor clutch. Possible wheel speed sensor on the trac issue. Probably a switch issue for security. It can be bypassed.

[@jameshilton3494]

So I may be a bit late here, but have worked on c5s and c6s for almost 15 years now. Normally the ride control is pretty reliable. A lot of the time, low voltage at startup with a dead battery like that car had can cause issues. The shocks are expensive tho. Like 3-400 a piece. Another good thing to look at is the shroud over the top of the radiator. If the car hit something underneath hard, it snaps the upper shroud off where it bolts to the top of frame. Also they can have hvac issues. Vacuum lines under the battery rot. Especially if it had a battery leak or go bad... My experience with the c5 is that it’s an extremely reliable car tho.

[@mariosaccoccio1688]

Yep. A buck ran into my daughter's car right at the A piller, flip over, landed on the windshield! Crushed the roof down to the steering wheel...

[@jakesgonecrazy08]

Randy same as my 01 c5. Luckily my 01 doesnt have the bcm. This 99 does and pretty much guarantee that's your issue. Good luck finding one or swap the whole car to the newer ecm and delete the bcm. Nice car for the price. Lots of potential. Magna ride hud and other options make it a z51 package car.

[@JR-ty9lx]

The rpms on the Corvette were at zero like the tach is broken when you started it and it was running

[@dayday2466]

lol paused it at that part and searched the comments for tach

[@sexysammij1]

I'm streaming to the tv so as soon as I spotted that which was quick, i came to see the comments on the tach not working lol..... then waitong for Randy to spot and mention it lol

[@hillbillydelux75]

I rented a impala one time while wife car was getting fixed super sick ride !!!! I’d buy it all day long the ss I’d say worth 9-11 k motor alone and interior is worth it

[@MNorris1985]

Good place to start with the suspension control is at the abs light. A lot of times once that kicks on for whatever reason the computer turns other things off for safety. I would almost bet you fix that issue the rest will work again.

[@michaelhuey4187]

Randy, thanks for another great vid! Rather than wasting $15/16K on a Viper that will drain your wallet in a hurry, then challenge you to flip it profitably, spend the $8/10K on the Impala that won’t break the bank to fix and can be flipped easily. Hope you get the C5 at $4/5K; it would be a nice flip. The Range Rover - Run Away, Run Away‼️ (same for the Honda Hybrid) Stay Safe.

[@briangarvey4936]

The corvette will display all of the codes for you ignition on car off reset button to clear warning's hold options press fuel four times then it will go through codes automatically but you can also manually go through them everything from pcm tcs radio hvac and a bunch more. could be dirty grounds to a wheel sensor to the ebcm needing resoldered I fixed mine that way. got to be a master electrical and soldering fool to own a c5

[@williamsinger4124]

Just got in from plowing. We're getting a bunch of snow. Figured I'd have a cold snack and watch before dinner, then its back out to plow again, then to the store to take care of billing and start next week's order.

I really like that Impala. I could see myself bidding on it, nice family car. it will be interesting to see what it goes for.

[@johnwelch461]

Hi from Australia ,the last car you showed was a "general motor holden " commodore "SS" V8 great car here ,every man and his dog wanted one ,sadly no more .

[@khaledelajam3043]

The traction and ABS light is a common issue. On a 99 , it is not rebuildable and no longer made. You may find a good used one for $1500. The chirp is usually a harmonic balancer going bad. The display on the HVAC is rebuildable for about $175 .

[@richardflower5993]

I rented one for a holiday did a road trip in impala had a great time with her. Lots of power for the high way.

He has 0 skills his rebuild is to throw a battery in and resell a car. Unless he gets a corvette for free he abandons anything too hard to fix like a mustang that needs a easy engine rebuild. Suck it Randy you loser.

[@316Autos]

Not surprised that the service vehicle and abs lights are on. Fun fact about 97-00 Corvettes, you can't find ANY of the electronics that go into the stability system. Steering wheel position sensor, EBTCM, Adjustable shocks, etc.

[@PrinceAlhorian]

That boot - walking on stilts - feeling goes away when they are worn in. It gets better. Thanks for the awesome vid and advice.

[@OrangeCrush440]

Traction control and ABS light coming on in a pre-2001 C-5 means you should run! That's the electronic brake control module. It's not rebuildable on pre-2001s and they don't make it anymore. The only way to get another one is to source it from another corvette and they cost a LOT of money.

[@DavidrSmith-st2vi]

I have a 99 randy. The noise you hear is the harmonic balancer. Did you hear a knock on cold start up? It’s piston slap. . It will go away when it gets warm. Good little car . Mine is black conv.

[@colyngautreaux1078]

I really do like that Civic Hybrid, It's not too often you see that gen, a 7th, in Hybrid. Would I buy it and drive it as a first car? Yes I would. I think it needs a tune up, coils, plugs, wire, etc. Thanks for the video, Randy.

[@ewanm2246]

On the C5 I bet that A/C probably works. lots of GM cars don’t let you turn on the A/C if it’s like below 35 degrees. I think it’s stupid because A/C helps defrost in the cold but who knows, it’s 2000s GM. Our Acadia a/c light flashes just like that when it’s cold, but works perfectly fine when it’s warmer.

[@DaveA441]

Active body control never really did much tbh in old 90s and 80s car. I have a 60k miles 86 c4. I’ve driven a 50k mile anniversary edition c5 and it didn’t do anything at least I didn’t feel anything. I wouldn’t stress

[@wwz1011]

Had almost an identical deer strike. Deer are stupid, hit the drivers side headlight, then down that side. So for sure, it happens. Insurance company looked for deer remnants to validate claim as animal strike.

[@shawnepiscopo5613]

That impala is the one to go for low mile minimal damage u can make a good profit on that

[@realbogus]

The transmission is in the rear.... no dipstick to the best of my knowledge. That should have a 4L60E series transmission. It could be a 4L65E (5 sun gears vs 3, it is a bit better). Regardless, figure a lifespan in the 130k mile range. I would agree that the retail value would be upwards of $12k, if it was a 6spd manual. But for an auto? $10k is max, there are sooo many of them.... considering the overall condition, I would be checking those tires... date codes!!! and make sure all are the same make/model. The suspensions are prone to failure... new shocks are a couple hundred bucks each... But you will want to get a Helm factory service manual for this... they are complex, and considering you have owned a C6 and C7, you already know this. ABS/traction control errors are caused by a bad relay inside the ABS brain box... down by the steering rack. $20 for the relay and you have to take stuff apart. The AC problem could be with the dash controller... Those flip up lights suck. They are just bad... The OEM radioes on these absolute junk. If it needs fixed, look up Dr Don's... The thing you were flipping is an air intake for the cooling system. These are generally great cars. They drive well and handle great, just blemished by miserable GM build quality.

Been a story of the Chevy SS this came out for the 2014 model year, and this lack of awareness is the car failed. It only had a corvette LS V8 around 415-horsepower 6.2-liter V8, which growls like the engine in a muscle car. It's a four-door corvette that was modified like the 1996 impala SS because it's for your family.

Hey Randy , hope you y'all are doing well , loved the Impala and the C5 of course, perfect two cars for the channel , that corvette should be real fun to fix the error's and IDK if you noticed while in the C5 the RPM gauge didn't function but that's what I'm sayin , fun for fixing every last little help it needs , mod it and make it a fast car on the channel great , awesome car , Corvette's in general I have always loved don't care which generation but If I ant affordable one from any generation I'm gettin' one , but dude Randy c5's are just epic for that 5.7 beast of an engine and they're styling bcos they are just like the C6 similar body but few things like the pop up head lights like the C4 so its a model that resembles the old and newer corvette's this was a good one and low miles what more is needed its a beast!!!!! and that Impala great daily driver but a big car and roomy yes always Impala's man they are great and enjoyable and not gonna lie , but the truth is they are pretty peppy and quick , surprised that both you and I like so many cars the same . And Randy that Range rover would be awesome to see on the channel , and no you don't need new headlight for the driver side why?? you ask well bcos you will now get headlight tab repair kits that will provide you new tabs and you weld /solder on , so then why waste that headlight when you can repair it for a few bucks of a small tab repair kit , and overall simple project rebuild as well and she will be brand new again, good one for the channel as well. But if you want to go for the Goonzquad level of Rebuild , thats pretty easy and a beast of car as well yes you know what i'm sayin' get that Chevy SS Randy , she's a beast and does not have much issues at all , an awesome rebuild that would be for the channel and don't you can't do it , I know you can and now that you have lift you can easily rebuild this SS beast Randy , But anyways , loved that sharp , clear ,crisp content , felt as though I'm over there with you looking with my own eyes that much awesome quality this video was and with excellent cars ( and once again hope you will get that beautiful , mean ,aggressive C5 beast man but these others which I mentioned are also fun as well especially the SS!! ) Stay safe and God bless.
