Feb 2018 - Ask Al Poll #4
A couple of repeat candidates, but they still exhibit the most interest.
Please keep the new questions coming... 1. A8 Transmission Shudder http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=510888 It seems like there has been...several bulletins regarding replacement of the TC/"triple flush" of the transmission fluid to fix a shudder that occurs at certain RPMs/speeds. Most troubling is that a number of individuals have stated that they have had multiple torque converters installed only to have the shudder return (as well lots of reports of shudder returning after triple flush)….Can you please shed some light on what's going with our cars and the A8s and whether there is any permanent fix to the issue? 2. Hugger Orange, Orange Crush http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=520986 Hi Al and Team, Can you expand on your Hagerty.com quote and give additional insight to the decision making process over your time as as Chief concerning Hugger orange? ...Obviously there is more to it and now this tribute color seems to be the culmination of those discussions. I'd like to hear more. 3. ZL1 1LE Nurburgring Chassis Settings http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=508671 Can you please enlighten your fellow ZL1 1LE Enthusiasts, Drivers and Mechanics on what final adjustments and setting were made to the car to achieve the Nürburgring Lap. |

Hugger Orange??...Really?...lol....Trying to find out why they built non-reclining seats seemed like it had more interest....
Owners are modifying their own factory seats a lot more than they are running out and painting their cars orange....sheesh....whatever.... The poll should change to just two serious questions instead three with one being an irrelevant soft-ball question... |

I voted for the ring settings. You’re welcome Pinhead, Mr. Wyndam and others I’ve argued with about it being nothing more than “cool to know” :p
We just hit them with a “hey our Trans has problems” question they were kind enough to answer, and I’m sure they don’t want to hear constant complaints. The paint color, meh, guess I’d rather hear them discuss slaying the ring! |

The ring question is quite interesting but I don't think anybody in this forum will ever have the pleasure of riding the green hell. This setting is specifically for the ring only.
Therefore the answer will be interesting but not very helpful for other racetracks. just my 2 cents

They might not want to answer #1.

It wouldn't be there if they didn't want to answer it.

Everyone wanted A8 shutter and Launch Bog... You got one and now you have your chance to get the second one too, which will no doubt win the poll. How about no more poll repeats so we can push these so called "floating around for months" questions you mention. Just do one shot...done. Would folks been happy to see A8 shutter gone for good. I don't think so. |

Yes, Mike, you are right....But as long as these things take to drag out, having a poll simply as a formality is a huge waste of time and delays the other "not as popular" topics from ever being answered...
Absolutely the Shudder was a shoe-in to win....why did it take weeks and weeks to even have another poll with an obvious winner?....If it is that easy, and it seems to be, which topic will win the following poll, why even have it?.....However, the poll does highlight which other topics are on the horizon.......and Hugger Orange ain't one of them,...So yes, to some degree, it does matter. |

Mike - Thank you for managing this.
It would be wrong to not allow poll repeats. Only one topic can win at a time. If there is strong enough interest in a topic to push it forward the next time it should have an opportunity. IIRC, the A8 had ~150 votes last time. A8 lost, we accepted that without whining and are running again

I'm not surprised that this "ask Al" process is taking a few cycles to "settle down".
This one's become something of a toss-up for me. Norm
