This seems like a random occurrence in Cadillac V's, not a design flaw. It's not uncommon for ANY manufacturer to have metallurgy failures in parts that lead to catastrophic engine failures. Cams fail, valves fail, bearings fail, etc. even for Nissan and Toyota. Other cars have had...

Pro Tip: 99% of car thieves can't drive a manual.

Checked my app a couple of weeks ago, OnStar Smart Driving was OFF. Today it was ON. Maybe there was an update...

The current gear ratios make the car very useable in every gear. For most highway driving, having that big 6th gear overdrive helps keep rpms low BUT is still very useable to get through traffic. The issue is at that momentum is hard to gain after the 165 mph mark, but realistically, how...

Yes, the remote start companies do offer it. You just have to jump through some hoops when you turn it off if you intend on remote starting it: - Can You Remote Start a Manual-Transmission / Stick-Shift Vehicle? - Viper Support Center

As a follow-up, I did see this in a GM article (https://gmauthority.com/blog/2021/04/heres-what-the-cadillac-v-mode-button-does-in-the-ct4-v-and-ct5-v/): Competition Driving Mode: Affects steering assistance, traction control settings, Electronic Limited Slip Differential settings...

A couple of questions for you guys... If you are in 'Track' or 'Sport' and push Traction Control twice, it goes into 'Competitive Driving Mode': Q: What exactly does 'Competitive Driving Mode' do that doesn't occur normally in the 'Track' or 'Sport" modes? Question 2: If you are in 'Track'...

I do not. It's a 6MT...

Dude, if you are an experienced racer, there is no need to go. From what I've read, Spring Mountain is a like a V track day for people that don't do a lot of track days. You just gonna be bored. If you wanna take your V on the track, just do a track day with a local car club (Porsche, Alfa...

They'll run out of tickets before you run out of money, son!

They look a little slippery. Are they slippery?

Can you post up a link to those pedals? ALSO, if you set 'Brake Feel' for more aggressive, the pedal doesn't move down as much under hard braking. If you set 'Brake Feel' for Less aggressive, the pedal will sink more under braking. Perhaps more brake pedal movement will help people having...

This new V has an excellent, mild-mannered clutch. Easy to get a smooth release from a stop with minimal throttle, minimal slip. Or if you use more throttle for an aggressive launch, it's easy to fade it the clutch like you want. After 3K miles, mine seems to be a little less sensitive that it...

Thanks. When I put in my car information (2024 CT5BW) it says it will not fit that vehicle. Is that a mistake on their end?

As I recall, there's a decibel meter app for your phone that records the highest db reading. You could set the phone down on the ground, drive a little ways, turn around, and come back past the phone at full chat... See what db it records. FYI, I used that app at a Blackhawks hockey game...

I'm not sure about that... I had my V1 for 35,000 miles and my V2 for 40,000 miles, and I never had to bleed the clutch or the brakes. Same with a whole bunch of other performance cars, some of which saw track use. In fact, the only cars I've had that required even occasional brake or clutch...

Guys, I just took a look at my SVR data card. It's just a bunch of 4 second files that seem to be from whenever I start the car. There are no videos of the car in motion. Is there a way to set it up to record continuously (aside from pushing the RECORD button)?

All, I was hoping for help with a couple of questions. I have $259 Cadillac Reward dollars that I'd like to spend at Cadillac.com. I was hoping to buy the hood & trunk mono badges on there for my CT5BW, but I can't seem to find them. Q: Has anyone found them on there? I searched...

I have the 'Braking' setting at the 50% mark in 'My Mode' and size 11.5 shoes. I've got the ball of my foot and my big toe on the brake pedal, then just pointing my toes and moving my leg down a bit to blip the throttle. If you aren't getting enough 'blip', perhaps some of the modes have a...

Nice! What was the pricing on these? Would like to compare it to the Pirellis and Vredsteins...
