huh, I stand corrected, but that break in process seems to refer to "lower quality aftermarket cats", not to OE-grade (which come with a much longer federally mandated warranty)...

I've never, ever heard of a "break-in" for a cat. The way they work is basic chemistry. The bricks are "padded" in their cans with a wrap of furnace-lining type material to account for differentials in expansion/contraction, as well as vibration (which isn't limited to break-in). For what it's...

I think there’s a lot more to the equation, including control modules and coding. When scanning my 2025 MT, there are no “side view monitoring” modules present. I think those are supposed to be located at the rear bumper corners, not in the mirror heads themselves. Blind spot monitor overview...

Dude opening the door looks like the lead instructor from Spring Mountain (Josh?), lol.

I started a thread on software glitches before, do you guys also have the other issues after several days of not driving as I listed here? https://www.cadillacvnet.com/forums/threads/2025-gauge-glitches-and-software-updates.6364

Of course. I’m referring to summer tires on cold pavement. There’s still traction, just not a lot, yet enough for the nannies to do their throttle cut/ediff/selective ABS magic.

lol, makes for an invigorating driving experience. And unless you specifically change PTM settings, the nannies will catch you if you go too hoonigan, anyway.

I’ve had up to a dozen orders in at once. Whatever dealership got me an allocation first, with all my desired options, would win. Only had to put in a $1k deposit at one of the dealers, and it was under the condition of being fully refundable, which they did when I finally got an allocation...

When I was placing my order a year ago, Drift was on constraint.

If you’re looking for non-stocking dealer recommendations, I’d recommend Turnersville NJ Cadillac. I put in an order with about a dozen dealers within 30 mile radius and they were the only one that was able to get me (multiple) allocations. I say multiple because twice an allocation came up...

Delaware Cadillac. But be prepared to pay a hefty ADM.

Chapter 2:

Yep. Any of them on Amazon with the GL50448 spec will do the job.

Any of them will work, but this one double dips with Ford, a twofer: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C23WDB2D?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title The tool and letting the air out of the tire method both “wake up” the sensor when the car is in learn mode, and the car then knows to pair with them...

You’re going to have to put the car into relearn mode: parking brake on, out of gear (MT), press start button for 5 seconds to wake up car without starting engine. Go to vehicle settings, to tire pressures, to relearn mode. If you have the reset tool ($15 on Amazon), go to the LF tire, you...
