    How to jump a battery

    Wife's van is broken down, I'm trying to help with a car I've had for 6 months. I've jump started cars a billion times and never worried about it. If I short out the electronics we're both boned. A guy parked next to us and we jumped it in seconds, I had to walk him through it. I realize you...

    How to jump a battery

    I like the pic, but if I'm the donor vehicle I don't think all of those work, don't I need both of my ends on the battery leads.

    How to jump a battery

    well the diagram in the manual shows the 2.0 liter and says "the 3.6 is similar," only it's not really. It also stresses how you can easily short out the car and GM will not give you any warranty repairs, so I'm trying to get good advice

    How to jump a battery

    My wife's battery just died and I sat in the snow like a jackass trying to figure out how this thing is wired. I found the positive relay or whatever under the hood, but wasn't sure which post I should use for the negative end. It might not even matter, but I'm terrified of shorting out my car...

    Need Brake Advice on 4v

    In the fall I took my 4v BW to the dealership with about 20k miles on it. They replaced the rotors under warranty, and I learned that the previous owner had it done as 6k also under warranty. The dealership said my rotors were warped and needed to be replaced, I honestly didn't think that could...

    Looking for Opinions on Dealership Diagnosis

    I have heard they are notorious for denying any claim for ANY aftermarket parts, and I have not even considered modding my car under warranty as a result. Sorry you're not enjoying your 4v BW.

    New 4BW owner with question about steering

    I dunno about the wheel swap, they mounted the tires on the wrong rims, sorry for the poor description.

    New 4BW owner with question about steering

    sounds like alignment, but I will share my similar story: I noticed my steering just felt uneven and funky, and turning into a corner didn't feel super dialed. Then I checked my tires and noticed whoever replaced them switched front/rear tire sizes. Absolute bush league shit the dealer hadn't...

    Cadillac F1 entry

    My buddy went to Vegas and stood in line for 4 hours to get a bunch of different merch, but I got an F1 shirt from there...I don't know how much of my wardrobe can consist of Cadillac merch but I'm well on my way to "too much"

    What "don't" you like about your BW"?

    I wish I could set my auto warming seats to not go on blast my ass, and I would love the ability to have a "default" drive mode. It would also be nice to be able to auto turn on rev match...it feels dirty to use but in the winter especially I appreciate not having to worry about dumping too much...
