What are the ambient temps? Are we sure the precision pack install by your alignment shop was done correctly? Non-precision pack cars exhibit some toe induced wander but that is only under hard acceleration from low speeds. A light roll on at those speeds should exhibit nothing unusual.

I recommend the chrome door edge trim so you can signal to others that you and your New Balance sneakers still know how to get around an AutoZone accessory aisle. :cool: I think the go-to preemptive move is PPF with a dash of gray matter for how and where you park.

Economy is going in the shitter?? I think there are signs of softening which is seasonally predictable, but people who can truly afford a Z06 (cash or or minimal short term financing) aren't affected. I think there is a segment that are finally having to reconcile reckless pandemic era...

Cadillac V Club is who they reference and where the OP got his info from. That is an @Rob site?

I guess this makes it more legit - https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a69045575/cadillac-ct4-ct5-discontinued-2026-next-gen-ct5/

Agree on this, I think it's fake/AI news. Doesn't follow the normal protocols, its too vague, and too far out in the future. The only place it shows up is on the V club website.

Interesting news, this. As fast as the OEM's pivoted on EV's, there could be a similar pivot brings us back to EV's, particularly if there is a big technological electron storage breakthrough, or a political redirection that started the whole EV mandate. I would speculate that there could be a...

Normally when someone brings up the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act on a forum its because of the clause that states the dealer has to prove the non-OEM modification caused the failure. I'm dubious on that use, but at the core of the warranty act is specifically preventing dealers from having a...

Bots...why are y'all are skerd to talk to a human?

My 5 has been on a Noco maintainer using under hood terminals for 2.5 years with occasional weekend use and never have seen a battery light.

Are you sure it just wasn't traction control kicking in? It's getting cooler and the engine likes that, but the tires don't.

No, those are the isolators. Shipping blocks going between the spring coils to prevent squat. If I'm not mistaken, I think they are only on the front. Sweet drawing for your review.

Maybe try writing an email or PM'ing the Cadillac Care member that sometimes posts here. In 2025, phone calls are the least likely path to reach someone in a giant corporation that can actually help.

I would argue otherwise, the toe links are a big improvement over the al dente noodles on base models regardless of use. They are a dealer installed item that is supposed to be done at PDR and I would strongly recommend you have that done.

That’s true, but there really isn’t much beyond oil changes during the power train warranty period so keeping receipts is basic accounting. Plus dealer shenanigans/unintended damage are way more likely than an actual warranty claim that will be denied by GM solely because DIY oil changes.
