    Jacking up your Blackwing

    The ball bearing hack works really well. It was the first thing I did to my QJ

    Summer tires in cold weather ?

    On those cold days just do a little burnout in your driveway to warm the rear tires and you should be good to go.🤣

    Oil Consumption on 4BW

    Yes that could be a problem too. Maybe not right now but some time later. At least the emissions warranty is 8 years 80k miles

    Oil Consumption on 4BW

    It might be hard to see any smoke out of the tail pipes in the daytime when you hammer it. At night with car headlights behind you, when you get on it if there’s smoke it is easier see. Maybe have a friend behind you at night and they will notice any smoke fog. I was wondering if there’s...

    Oil Consumption on 4BW

    Wow! That’s terrible. It could be anything. Bad turbo oil seal. Valve guide seals. Piston rings. That will take some serious diagnosis time to find the cause.

    Oil Consumption on 4BW

    If that’s true, that is not even close to acceptable.

    Is this normal Cadillac Service?

    Luxury car dealer service should be on another level than just a car dealership.

    Cleaning this thing is a BITCH !!!

    EZ Bug Remover RV people use this method with good results. Also heard that spraying RainX on the front will make the bugs come off easier. I have used WD-40, it works pretty good too. Never seemed to have any bad effect on the paint. Maybe silicone spray would work too.

    Has anyone owned both 4vBW and 5vBW?

    That’s what I thought when I test drove a 5BW manual. You will be at go to jail speeds in no time. I was looking at a ZL1, and Mustang GT500, came to the same conclusion. If you have 650+ HP you are going to use it. Not all the time but probably more than you think. One day the police will nab...

    Strange brake assistance

    I’m going to the track Nov 5 for the first time in the BW, I’ll see if it does anything like your’s does. Maybe the stability control module needs to be calibrated. If it thinks the car has a little bit of yaw, when you push it in a corner it thinks the rear is hanging out more than it really...

    Trunk Issue

    Squeeze the sides of the plastic cover and pry off with a small screwdriver or plastic trim tool. The bolt is a T40 torx I think. Then pull panel straight up. Clips hold it at the horizontal back edge.

    Modern Spare experience?

    I tried my Mazda spare T125/70-17 and it won’t fit. I even let the air out and used a ratchet strap to collapse it more but it’s a 1/2” or so from fitting. The MS spare is 18” so it will really be too big to fit. My old 89 Trans Am had a spare that the tire collapsed into itself to fit in a...
