If it triggered service rear diff and other lights, it should be in the vehicle's history if you pull codes, likely as inactive. I'm armchair guessing but it sounds like something electrical like a loose connection or plug or pin. The codes may give you some insight where. You could go to a...

Nice. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2026/02/apparently-the-infiniti-equalizer-app-works-in-gm-vehicles-and-speaker-sound-is-much-better/

I've always wondered why not staggered front/rear diameters for the Blackwings from the factory ... 2023 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing: 19" front, 19" rear factory: 2025 BMW M5: 20" front, 21" rear factory: It's hard to unsee on the M5 once it's been pointed out. The front tire looks fat.

Catalytic convertor(s) and/or injector(s). What "don't" you like about your BW"?

That bulletin was published exactly 1 year ago today, nice.

Looking for touch up paint for tech bronze wheels Sharpie gold metallic

Hey, no joke, Sharpie's metallic gold is an almost perfect color match. LINK. If you ground to bare aluminum you may need to use a black Sharpie as a basecoat first. If it's a large scuff/scratch you could also have the wheel refinished which should be ~$100-150/wheel. I'm still looking for a...

Nice! Folks have been looking for aftermarket CCB pads for a while when already spec'd w/ CCB. Is that an opportunity here?

I've gone through 2. It may be related to spark plugs in whichever banks are failing. Cats are emissions equipment so warranty is longer. (8yr/80k?) I recommend running the car through all RPMs as much as able, tracking it, and varying RPM ranges as much as able to blow out factory cobwebs prior...

Folks have had catalytic converter issues on the forum. Especially when WOT a lot. I've had mine replaced. Ask them to check your plugs.

Mine's a 2024 pre-facelift w/o wraparound instrument cluster if that matters. The important thing is if you fade rearward a little bit it makes a difference in bass and depth while leaving the soundstage toward the front more than other systems I've had. I've also found if you move all...

It's primary in Washington State. Deprioritized in Seattle by SPD. If that's your only regular offense, your risk is likely low. Best practice is to give no reason and break 1 law at a time so I have a tow hook mount. If you track or speed a lot be aware the edges or corners of the plate will...
