oh man...their service dept is a jokeThey are trying to screw me with getting my wife a new Escalade
I know some of the C7 Z06 guys did the Nick Williams TB back in the day but it may not have been the same issue? There was discussion around engine hesitation in the C7 Z06 back then.Maybe about 6k miles ago, I bought and installed the Mamo Motorsports larger throttle body. The surging went away. Maybe about 500 miles ago, it started happening again.
I figure I'll just deal with it from now on. Last week, I took the car in for an oil change and I considered mentioning the issue to them, but decided not to. I wasn't confident they'd fix the issue, and was more confident it would give someone the chance to go joy riding in my car.
That seems extreme, though if it comes to that, Cadillac will probably make an effort to figure it out.There are folks on the FB Blackwing pages with the same issue.....a couple of them are initiating the process to lemon law their cars
Yup hoping this ends up with some kind of resolution...not sure how many people are experiencing thisThat seems extreme, though if it comes to that, Cadillac will probably make an effort to figure it out.
I hear you ...I am driving around it right now. My frustration stems from having the TSB fix done after jumping through hoops with no resolution to the problem. It sounds like GM/Cadillac doesn't have a solution for it either.I dont know your car in particular, but i would suggest driving the car, and being a little careful to avoid the known issue- part throttle under mild to moderate load while the engine water temp is below 180. (driving up a hill/incline is typical) I don't drive my car aggressively until it is warmed up, but it is not hard to mostly avoid this engine situation. There was a time I was very frustrated, but now it doesnt phase me.
I felt the most predictable way to get myself all worked up about it, would be to try to have the dealership sort it out. even though my local dealership is generally nice, the general dealership protocol for any manufacturer these days seems to be:
leave the car with us for a few days
we will drive it around, likely with stereo blasting.
we may leave it running or idling in our driveway for hours while we do other stuff.
we might beat up your clutch a bit since not all of us are good at manual trans
we might take it home for the night
we will not be able to replicate your problem
we will give it a nice wash with our dirty towels before you pick it up.
Was this after the car was driven and parked for a bit? Yeah I am monitoring oil temps as well.This morning, I actually experienced it going downhill. Oil temp was 160 (not sure what water temp was since I don't have that one displayed). 5th gear, ~1800rpm
