Z06, Z16, and ZR1 Features
Checking Engine Oil
ZO6, Z16 (Grand Sport), and ZR1 models have a high
performance dry sump lubrication system. This system
operates differently than a standard engine lubrication
system. See Engine Oil on page 6‑19.
You should check the oil level only after the engine has
been thoroughly warmed up and then shut off for at
least five minutes. This ensures that the oil level
reading obtained will be accurate.
Jump Starting the Battery
The battery of ZO6, Z16 (Grand Sport), and
ZR1 models is in the rear of the vehicle. You do not
need to access the battery for jump starting. There are
remote positive (+) and negative (−) terminals under the
hood for this purpose. See Battery
on page 6‑49
and
Jump Starting on page 6‑50.
Brake Noise
Under certain weather or operating conditions,
occasional brake noise might be heard with the
vehicle's performance braking system. This brake
system is designed for superior fade resistance and
consistent operation using high performance brake
pads. Brake noise is normal and does not affect system
performance. See Braking on page 5‑4.
Car Wash Guidelines
Automatic car washes are not recommended for this
vehicle. Some car washes cause damage to the
vehicle, the wheels, and the convertible top, if the
vehicle is so equipped.
If you drive the vehicle through an automatic
car wash that does not have enough clearance for
the undercarriage and/or wide rear tires and wheels,
you could damage the vehicle. Verify with the manager
of the car wash that the vehicle will fit before entering
the car wash or use a touchless car wash. See
Washing Your Vehicle on page 6‑94.
