    Wow a virginal Blackwing! Enjoy, Don

    Is it ok to park with engine on for a while?

    Think it's pretty lazy and lame to sit in an idling car to eat lunch. Sit on a nearby bench if they're available. Don

    Aftermarket Air Filters

    The local Cadillac dealership has a "tech guy" who knows his business. A couple days ago I asked him if there were any easy changes such as an aftermarket filter that provides real benefits and would be OK with Cadillac. The answer was no surprise, nothing. Factory filter will stay on my...

    Aftermarket Air Filters

    Has anyone tried aftermarket air filters, in particular dry filters (hate dealing with the mess of cleaning and reoiling wet filters) on Blackwings? Any demonstrated results other than engine noise? Thanks, Don

    Blackwing-spec PS4Ss heat cycle out long before wearing out?

    Plenty of 40 and below temps even in central TX so if you go by the guidance, you can't drive the car. Don

    CT5-V The Eagle has landed (finally)

    Congrats! Your car would leave a Nissan Maxima so far in the dust he'd need binoculars to see you. Don

    Carbon back seat adjustment

    My issue is that the carbon fiber seat backs produce a lot of very annoying squeaking. The "fix" according to some is adjusting the carbon fiber by putting filler in. Want the dealer to work this not me. Don

    Squeaks

    Thanks, I haven't yet talked to the local dealer. Will do so. Your response sounds on the money. I'll see the dealer first. Don

    Squeaks

    My 4BW is one of the special editions, an IMSA Road Atlanta car. The car has carbon fiber backs on the front seats. They look nice but they produce an irrirating squeak when you're driving. Anyone have a solution other than removing them? Thanks, Don

    CT4-V Oil Catch Can??

    I really like both of them, the Stinger was just a bit over half the price of the Blackwing so it's certainly the better buy financially. The Blackwing does outperform the Stinger and surprisingly, though the Stinger does get good mileage the Blackwing does better. We make frequent trips into...

    CT4-V Oil Catch Can??

    For some reason, I'm not able to post as normal so I'll do a workaround. My other car is a Kia Stinger GT1, a twin turbo car. I got catch cans from a relatively near Kia dealer, whose service manager had a hopped up but small displacement engine. Mine has worked well. I rarely get more than...
