    Dealer recommendations Chicago suburbs

    Heritage has always had the best reputation especially with their techs as well. Patrick is the opposite. A few good sales people and great service writers but not so great techs .

    Brake squeal fixes….

    You clearly didn’t read the post. I had to fight the dealer just to get them replaced. Because “brembos squeal” as if I was born yesterday. The dealers don’t do shit anymore. They find every reason not to warranty shit.

    Brake squeal fixes….

    Yea I knew that part but you would think they would have come up w some other fix by now. 2 SS sedans, 2 6th gen Camaros, a C7, a CT5V, an ATS V and only one of those cars had break squeal and when they swapped the pads it was gone. This is terrible and the car only has 15k miles on it. They...

    Brake squeal fixes….

    Yea these squeal any time the weather is over 50 degrees. Just pulling out my driveway they squeal so loud the neighbors look at me like “wtf”…. Then pulling up to stop lights and all that. Pretty much always at low speeds too. Parking lots, driveways, traffic lights etc…. I’m due for an oil...

    Brake squeal fixes….

    I’ve had 7 GM sports cars all with brembos but for some reason this 4BW has the worst break squeal ever. Caddy replaced my rears just for them to be worse than the previous pair. I’ve tried everything at this point so don’t tell me to take it on the expressway and do hard stops and all that...

    ct4v bw exhaust valve rattle

    There’s a fix that’s hard to find but there’s a TSB somewhere to use spring cup washers or something like that and it keeps tension on the wastegates and fixes the rattle. That’s how they fixed it on my ATS V. It went from sounding like I was dragging tin cans to gone. If you do some google...

    Has anyone owned both 4vBW and 5vBW?

    The LF4 is absolutely terrible on fuel economy. For some reason the competitions TTV6’s get much better mpgs. I’ve had two cars with LF4 motors and they rip thru gas unlike anything I’ve seen lol 😂

    Whistle sound coming from the Throttle body?

    The wastegate rattle has made its way into these cars???? You gotta be kidding me. My ATS V had that and it sounded like I was dragging pop cans behind the car. What did the dealer do to fix it??

    How long do you wait after starting the car to move it off?

    That takes 15-20 mins to get it to 150 degrees in this Chicago winter. It’s insane. Not even exaggerating either. My ATS V was the same way but I was hoping maybe they added something to these that would get them to temp quicker lol.

    How long do you wait after starting the car to move it off?

    It was 0 in Chicago today and the 4BW takes an astronomically long time to get to ideal operating temps. It’s gotta be the slowest motor on earth to warm up lol. In anything under 30 degrees it takes 15 mins of easy driving to get in the damn 100 plus temp range.

    Media dumps

    They all agreed it could use more power. No idea why GM won’t listen. It takes only a crank up of the boost. But im assuming since it’s already a shit gas mileage motor compared to the competition that it would absolutely drop the gas efficiency by 3mpgs lol. No idea how Porsche and BMW and...

    Any pics or videos of Deep Space Metallic on a real car?

    Looks like the 22 shadow metallic in these pics

    Conti Extreme Contact dws06 plus vs. Michelin Pilot Sport all season 4 ?

    Did they have to special order them? It’s odd you can pull them up by vehicle make like they used to.
