MINE SUFFERS FROM THE SAME OLD CORVETTE PROBLEM.
AIR LEAKS AROUND THE WINDOWS-NEW WEATHER STRIPING,TIP IN WINDOW ADJUSTMENT AND HEIGHT ETC,KINDA OF A FIX-SO NEXT CURE IS THE NEW TSB ON THE AGE OLD PROBLEM.BIGGEST PROBLEM IS AT SPEED--WINDOW IS SUCKED OUT AT REAR EDGE.MY EXTERIOR PAINT CONDITION SHOULD HAVE NEVER LEFT THE FACTORY.
Other than a slight hood latch problem (fixed), I have no complaints. The car is tighter than a prom queen's .....well you know what I mean. At speeds above 130 it does get a little noisy, but that's what the speed compensated volumn control is for.
Driver seat rocks. No squeeks that I can think of.Console lid is hard to open, but I think that is common. I have lubed it but still when I open or close it I feel like its going to break.

Z06,Red,Modified Red.Stock for now.
Have three interior noise areas that I am working on. Got one fixed near the passenger windshield pillar/dash transition...rubbing together and squeaking. Another in drivers side dash...some vibration of something? Another in passenger side door area at rear of seat? Other than that, very solid over bumps.

Had a wobble in harmonic balancer/belt pulley. Dealer fixed. Fairly big job, the steering gear has to be removed to do the job. Check yours with engine running, look from passenger side. Have one little squeak in rear panel on drivers side. Will fix myself. Not worth waiting at the dealer for this.
