Thank you for the responses. To address the above comments: Ablackwing Track setting is outstanding. Handling is great. G. Newt, possibly it is just me that does not notice the difference in ride. However, my passengers cannot tell the difference nor can the mechanics at the dealership. They...

The difference between track and touring mode suspension setting is negligible. The electric/magnetic shock absorbers look amazing on paper but no so great in practice. I spoke to a guy who races his Audi A8. He completely replaced the suspension; he can adjust the height and vary the stiffness...

I tried to buy from Cochran in Monroeville, PA. They wanted $5,000 down and a penalty for every day they held it after delivery (something like $500/day but memory is hazy). Smail asked $500 deposit fully refundable. Rohrich in Pittsburgh, PA did not even return calls or email.

Cadillac online and telephone support was not able to answer a question about the rings that change color on the tachometer for a 2023 CT5 BW manual transmission. I believe the display is set to sport — it has an analog type display for the tachometer and digital display of speed. These my...

CT5v 2023 The dealer provided slightly detailed information regarding the recorder (See attached). It is almost useless. After many tries and various DOS formats with 64, 512, and 256 GB, the only card that worked was the 64GB. The card specifications match those in the attached file, V30. I got...

The original post is a call with the mechanic. After doing the 5,000 mile check up, the result is the same. The mechanic indicated that other cars with adjustable suspension (Audi, BMW, Mercedes) use a different method for varying ride attributes. There is some sort of air bag or hydrolic...

On a 2023 BW CT5, the trunk fusebox #45 is onstar. If you have a different year or model, the fusebox layout is easy to find online. One might be concerned about updates because some may patch security holes.

For the last few weeks, the BW CT5 ran with the onstar fuse pulled. These are observations and inferences: GPS no longer works Microphone no longer works Therefore it seems the lazy GM electrical engineers rely on the onstar module for GPS and some communication rather than developing their own...

Thank you for sending this along. Much appreciated. The spring in this picture is not compressed while my picture is clearly compressed. Therefore no block even if it hides on the opposite side.

If you have pictures of the real blocks, please send.

This is the best picture I can get at the moment. Will try to do better.

Thank you. The shipping blocks suggestion is great. There is something yellow at the very top of the spring on the front wheels. Without taking off the wheel, it is difficult to see exactly what is going on but you may be correct. That is certainly something the dealer shall check. I assume that...

The 2023 CT5 Blackwing has almost 5,000 miles on it. The car is an outstanding vehicle that I look forward to driving for quite some time. The Adaptive Active Ride Control adjustment (if that is the right term) is minimal. The ride/suspension seems very similar when set to "Touring" and "Track"...
