    Rear Diff Fluid

    I don't recall a washer and know there's no sealant required. (I'm doing mine again this weekend so I'll check on the washer).

    CT5-V 2025 Launch control, conditions not met

    Is GM still offering 2 days at Spring Mountain for new BW purchases?? If so, I HIGHLY recommend you go as they'll show you how to use launch control, PTM modes, etc. The car has a LOT of configurable options, some of which are not obvious

    CT4 BW quickjack - tips on positioning and block choice ?

    If it's really close but works, get it lined up and put some scotch tape markers on the rocker panel edges to make alignment easier next time. My fear with it pushed up against the front tire is the car might get a bit stuck coming down like it did on my son's Camaro a few years ago (Alpha...

    Lotus Emira

    I like them on paper but with what I've read, I'd probably get a GT4 and be done with it (real dealer network, much more reliable, much better resale.) Only big downside is it won't feel as light as the Lotus

    Dealer Couldn't Set Up Track Alignment?

    Yikes. Read the details on the oil change and see if they claim to have put the right spec in for oil. If they've not dealt with BWs then they may have made a mistake. I have a 5BW and know you don't have to do any drilling to change the camber and suspect the same for the 4BW. Do you have an...

    CT5-V Blackwing Extended Warranty Pricing

    James Black Cadillac is the online volume leader for GMPP plans. Pretty good prices in my experience. Get a price there and then see if your local dealer will match (depending on when your car was last serviced by a GM dealer you might need an inspection to qualify for GMPP.)

    CT5-V Oil change for ct5V BW

    Sorry for the confusion. 60k+ on a V3 and 40k+ on 5BW.

    CT5-V Oil change for ct5V BW

    I used to check weekly but after over 100k miles on the V3 and 5 BW I've found for my car that unless I spring a leakz, there's no need for frequent checking especially since I change oil every 3-4k miles.

    CT5-V Missing Volume knob on MY25+

    Hmmm...between losing Super Cruise and the volume button, I'm torn between the A10 and 6MT. If you could get an updated sport wheel with Super Cruise for the A10 it would be a no brainer for me but I really like the sport wheel...1st world problems! Oh, well. With the wrecked stock market, I'm...

    CT5-V Oil change for ct5V BW

    I'd just check it while hot and manage the level so it's at the top of the measuring area first. After that, unless your detecting oil leaks, just wait for the add oil indicator and repeat.

    With the Cadillac / GM Alexa skill gone...

    ...has anybody seen a replacement? I had hoped I'd see some communication about it being replicated via Google Assistant (or Gemini) but haven't so far. It's not a deal breaker but it was might convenient to remote start the car via an assistant (which I can still do with BMW).

    CT5-V HORRIBLE experience with Bayway Cadillac SW

    Is Cadillac still giving 2 free days at Spring Mountain for new purchases? If so, I'm not sure if give up the car over a $300 add-on (which in some cases yields a small insurance discount).

    Noob-ish question on 5BW Oil Consumption

    I've still got a S65 oil burner in the fleet! Keeping it helps put any potential Blackwing problem into a better perspective!
