C8 transmission problems anyone?

[MGW]

I'm thinking of returning to Corvettes again after having a C5, two C6's and a C7 in the past. Really regret selling the C7 a couple of years ago. I'm thinking of a 2023 C8 but the stories of the transmission problems I've read about have put doubts in my mind.
Have any C8 owners here in the UK had any problems? and if so how helpful have Ian Allan been in sorting them out. Any advice would be gratefully received.
Thank you.

Hi MGW, Presumably you have been reading about that on US Forums? Nobody with a UK C8 has come on here to talk about transmission problems. Nothing about it on the C8 Corvette UK Facebook page that Craig at Ian Allan administers:

Facebook Groups | C8 Corvette owners UK

www.ianallanmotors.co.uk Corvette C8 UK.

I believe there was a recall, which I seem to remember involved replacing the transmission, but dont know if any UK cars were included/affected? Presumably IA could tell you that?

I've owned my C8 from new in April 2023 and have driven 7k miles without any problems. My father has the same car ( different colour ) and he has had zero issues with transmission, in fact we have both had zero issues at all with our cars during 18 months of ownership . My transmission filter is due to be replaced shortly as they need replacing around 7.5k miles . In my experience you will not go wrong with a C8, its been a great car and I wont be selling mine any time soon.
