C6 Corvette Mag Ride Delete

- I replaced my f55 mag ride shocks with z06 shocks and removed the F55 signals coming from the BCM with a Tech 2. The video is kind of limited on the removal and install of the new shocks, but there are a bunch of DIY videos doing that already on youtube.
Some people say you can do this without the Tech 2 and use a resistor. As far as I can tell the BCM is looking for a fluctuating signal back showing a good shock. If it sees a static signal, there's something wrong with the shock and it'll throw a "service handling system" warning on the DIC.
You can purchase the tech 2 on various sites. I purchased mine on alibaba express. Shocks were purchased on amazon.

The magnaride shocks are awesome. It’s worth restoring the system. I would not buy a modern corvette without them. My C6 is pushing 100k miles and it’s 18 years old with the original shocks that are still working fine.
Why should you do that and why did you order it that what way. The Magnetic Ride affects more than just your shocks movement and don't forget springs there is also the steering
+Ckeehn2 the shocks felt like they were fading a bit so instead of replacing $1000/shock I replaced them with z06 shocks for less than $400. The interaction with all the systems is not that big of a deal, specially if you delete the function in the computer.
Thanks Omar...I'm in the process of swapping my shocks out. Already bought both the front & back sets. Just need to install them then proceed w/ the TechII tune.

Can you tell us what did you do with your project
The mag Shocks do not ever fade as long as they do not leak then they work as a brand new one would out of the box and if you were to replace you can buy them for 400 a piece the same as what you paid for your ZO6 shocks from Summit Racing
Yes, they were leaky. No difference from sport to touring as well. There was no $400 rtd shock when I made the video hence why I went with $45 z06 shocks.
I went on to research for magride retrofit for a Subaru but this guy is going back to dinosaur age suspension. Is there something I'm missing ?
$1000+ per magride shock or $100 per shock from a Z06. Big difference in price!
Omarvette weren't you aware of it when you purchased your z06?
Hi Omar. I have an 07 c6 with magride shocks and one is totally failed. I want to replace it with z06 shocks. The yellow sticker on the z06 shocks part number is 0302855 and 10302877. Will those parts replace my z51 magride shocks on my 07?
Please help!
where can i buy the right card & adapter for c6?
Hi Omar can you help me out by telling me exactly which GM scanner you bought or would work for this problem (C6 2007 Corvette) ? I'm not sure what the right card is for corvette ? I see GM Tech 2 scanners but not sure which one to buy. Please any help would be great Thanks!
Its in the description of the video.
Can this be done with EFI live I just put qa1 shocks on my c6 and I'm having that same problem now I have a friend with EFI live
So is this because you bought/replaced shocks and they aren't the OEM? My EXACT car got new shocks in front and I was advised by a performance shop to buy Shock absorber simulators and they'll install them and not require programming.
The shocks aren't magnetic ride, just plane Z06 shocks, so I had to shut off that feature with the tech2. Do you have a sport/tour switch by the center glove box? If so you have mag ride shocks. I don't think any simulators work with the C6. You have to do it with the tech2.
Do you know if the tech2 and this process works on the 2013 model corvette GS? Ivr been told by a local tech that the tech2 wont work on the 2012-2013 models
I vaguely remember that to be true on the later models. I think they have an electronic adapter for it to work.
Can I do the same thing on an 04 Cadillac XLR? Also has mag ride
You the man!
Nice work boots!
What did the Z06 shocks cost? I want to get rid of my Magnetic ones, and switch.
It was about $450 for all four shocks!
279 for 4 on e-bay
I have a K platform 2007 avalanche I eliminated the magna ride and put Bill Steen’s all around she rides great service suspension system light cannot get it to shut off even tried to resistors the problem is on my tech 2 I cannot get to that screen can anybody do for k body screens , I’ve tried for hours , says Module does not need to be set up primary something already matches never lets me to see the screen to delete the magna ride please help
Hi
..i replace both my stocks n now if i turn to sport mode my magnetic ride doest feel anything different.....idk y doing that....please lmk...
Thx.
Maybe your originals were still good?
Does that mean you don’t have to buy the Adapters ?
Correct. No adapters needed.
Correct. For the price of the adapters you can buy a tech 2 and service your car for many other issues.
Alternate title: How to ruin your Corvette. Mag ride>coilovers for a DD or mild track car.
magride is useless bro 🤣🤣 I barely use tour because it's too soft and sport feel like tour should feel. It's a weak system that leaks so it should always be replaced. Coilovers with adjustment for rebound and damping are far superior to an early 2000s suspension.
One magnetic ride shock cost as much as getting a full set of Bilstein b6 shocks that are way better
Can anyone verify that this works on a 2008 or later C6? I've read that you need the resistors for the LS3 and that the Tech2 will not work to override/disable the magnetic control system.
Hmm, the tech 2 is a GM tool for things like this, so I don't see why you'd need resistors? I could be wrong. Maybe if I find an 08+ and someone is willing, I'll check it out.
How much would someone charge for this ? I know that the C6 CORVETTE RTD SIMULATORS can be found for 180$ but that’s still pricey I think.
180 per axle, 360 for the set.. very pricy and mine didnt work.
If latter on you decided you want the magnetic ride again, can you do it with the tech 2?
Yup. Just put the astrisk by it again in the tech 2 and you're good to go.
Will this work on a 00 c5 Corvette I have service ride control
I had the clutch replaced now I am having this appear PLEASE help
I'm not a 100% sure on the c5s. But I bet it's similar.
@@OmarBuilds thanks for your response but the odd thing is I haven't gotten the 80 mph appear just service ride control!?
@@iamalpha5134 look at post #6. Hope that helps. www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c5-tech/3815580-yet-another-service-ride-control-shocks-inoperative-maximum-80-mph-problem.html
