I depend too much on Waze & the speed trap alerts to use Stealth Mode.

But are you venturing out in it???

Do you not have a detector that can filter that out?

A friend of mine recently took delivery on his '26 5BW. His order to delivery time was similar to yours. Yeah, my '23 5BW took just over 11 months from order entry to delivery. It was just when the world was coming out of COVID-19 & so many parts were still on constraint. None of the exterior...

Just make sure to keep up on the maintenance of the diffs & tranny fluid. The weak link is the engine with forced induction but they are very reliable otherwise.

If you put M&S tires on it, you'll be practically unstoppable. I had a 2005 & then 2008 Subbie STi with dedicated snow tires for the winter. The Tri-State Subbie Owners Enthusiast's Club used to do a weekend event every winter from NYC thru PA, a stop at Subbie of America, NJ & all the way to...

Not normal behavior. I have 52k+ miles & have not experienced this.

You can always ask them to hold onto the empty quart bottles to show you when you pick up the vehicle. Add it as a special request when you drop off the vehicle for service. I don't know they'll honor the request but can't hurt to ask.

The C8 Stingray & Eray use the same Mobil 1 0W-40 Super Car oil as the 5BW. They even use the same AC Delco filter. I know this bc I had a '23 Corvette HTC Stingray and did the majority of oil changes myself. Makes sense because they essentially share the same motor. If your local Caddy dealer...

Oil & filter change. Had 9% left on the oil life indicator. I had to add 2 qts of oil when the indicator was at 18%. I guess I need to keep a better eye out on my oil level. I had the a-hole tech check, double check & triple check the correct oil & the amount of oil put in. This was my 1st oil...

Differential fluid change Tire rotation Took her to car wash A cheapo pump for the fluid from Amazon made quick work of filing the pumpkin. Got a Turner Titanium Magnetic Differential Drain Plug that was listed on another post. I'm about 5k miles late on changing the diff fluid but it came out...

Turn the knob for the dash illumination all the way down. The touch pad screen goes dark & the only thing you see is the speedo on the dash.

A pair of nice, quality driving gloves fixes this issue. I prefer leather ones but have not found one that is compatible with the touch screen. Have been using a (synthetic) pair from Under Armour that have been great.

My BIL, in Albany, NY, had a Panamera that he had dedicated snows for & had no issues with it during the winter. If I were in the market for a foul weather vehicle, I'd look very seriously at a used Panamera Turbo. Get all weather floor mats & throw on a dedicated set of snows. AWD, luxury...

In NC, it's pretty much SOP to contact a traffic atty after any type of moving violation who will then negotiate with the Court on reducing the fine/penalty. The fine might increase with a decrease in penalty to something that hopefully won't effect your insurance. Example: IIRC, the last...
