    Probably Dumb Questions

    For 2, this is also how my 2025 is. You have to press the X to clear the screen which is a little annoying.

    2025 PDR recording overwrite function

    I have the same issue. I have to go into the PDR and disable and reenable this toggle to get it to start overwriting. Now I'm just in the habit of always looking for the red dot when I start driving.

    25 CT5 Blackwing - first software update (failed twice) GM 33.00

    OTA showed up yesterday. Failed a few times and I've given up on it. Meh. Nothing that critical probably.

    Did you do or are doing V academy

    This is how I got my slot. They called a week before and I jumped on a plane.

    Did you do or are doing V academy

    If you haven't done this and you're eligible, you should do it. Just got back and it was fantastic. These cars are truly amazing. Make the time. It's worth it.

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    Not new for 25. The handles are a button instead of actually moving or mechanical feel. There is also often a delay between pressing the button and it actuating inside the door. It also only actuates for a moment. This means if you pull to early it does nothing. If you pull too late it moves a...

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    I've become familiar with the lack of volume knob over time, so while it isn't awesome, it's livable. What I have NOT gotten used to is the stupid door handles and the "pull a little, but not too much, hahahaha it's stuck try again" nonsense.

    Order bank open date 2025 CT5V BW?

    The car isn't sold until it's paid for and contracted, and many customers back out of their orders.

    Hide sliders when hitting Vmode switch?

    You have to touch the screen to do this if you have a manual, which is slightly inconvenient if you're trying to do v-mode shenanigans.

    CT5-V CT-5 BW Noisy Engine

    As an update on this, Cadillac thinks it might be the early signs of a lifter failure so they're going to swap the lifters on one bank. The noise was never very loud, so I'm hoping it's a lifter only swap. Oil plug was correctly seated.

    2025 Surround Vision Recorder switched to USB?

    It's present on the auto, so they made the sensors work already on the car. They saved a few dollars by taking the light out of the mirror. It's things like this that constantly remind me that I'm driving a nice Chevrolet, not a real luxury car. 😂

    2025 Surround Vision Recorder switched to USB?

    The lack of blind spot monitoring is baffling to me on a six figure car. A 25k Kia has this feature.

    CT5-V CT-5 BW Noisy Engine

    This is the part number the cadillac parts website says is for the 25 blackwing. I expected it to say Supercar or DexosR on it. 🤷‍♂️

    CT5-V CT-5 BW Noisy Engine

    Selling dealership is nearly 2000 miles away, so I'll need to find a local Cadillac dealer that is competent. I also need to check my oil change receipt probably... Edit: Checked the receipt. Oil looks right (19370233)

    CT5-V CT-5 BW Noisy Engine

    Picked up my 6MT 25 BW a month ago, did the break in process, and swapped the oil and differential fluid. Ever since picking the car up, I've been surprised at how noisy it is given everyone says the car is silent. The main noise starts around 2500 rpms and above, even on light throttle, and...
