    5 Blackwing Exhaust Fab on MotorTrend TV Car Fix Saturday 11/25/23

    I thought some member here kept getting a cel code after disconnecting the NPP after an exhaust mod? They didn’t mention any codes after completely disconnecting/removing the NPP. Maybe I’m day dreaming, lol. I also hope the owner didn’t mind them doing all those burnouts… and I would want a...

    iPhone charging woes

    Thanks for posting. I just updated last night to 17.1.1 on my iPhone 14 Pro and tried it just now after seeing this posting. No issues. Since the article mentions iPhone 14 Pro Max was affected, I wanted to be safe. I’m sure Apple I’m sure will figure it out with another update.

    A10 crew

    I drove my 22 GMC AT4 this morning to run some errands (thanks to my wife for last minute groceries to get between 3 stores 🥵) and remembered it has a A10 tranny as well coupled with a 6.2L. It shifted quick and solid regardless of throttle input.

    A10 crew

    My 5BW A10 shifts fairly crisp & fast when regular cruising and if I get aggressive, it get aggressive right back with extremely fast shifts. The 5BW A10 at Spring Mountain did exactly the same. My 2017 ZL1 A10 acted the same. I’m very happy on how my car drives and responds. Maybe it’s...

    Where can I get black side markers?

    Diode Dynamics was great on my 2017 ZL1, but someone posted here for the 5BW, theirs only have a single led bulb and not the strips. Didn’t look good at all and at $250, not worth it. I’ve ordered the ones from Savage Cadillac as theirs have the led strip and they are due to my house next...

    Ct5v blackwing removing brake calipers

    I did forget to mention that if you paint with the G2 paint system, do not clear coat over the color. I couldn’t find a clear coat that could handle the higher temps without yellowing. I did place the decals on while slightly tacky thinking that would help.

    Ct5v blackwing removing brake calipers

    If you have the time and patience, you can paint them with G2 caliper paint (G2usa.com) without removing the caliper. They have over 10 colors to choose from. I’ve had good success by taking my time carefully taping around everything after throughly cleaning and once dry, then paint. I have had...

    Water on the Driver's side floor mat and carpet

    I went and checked on my garage queen and she is dry underneath the mat. Then like @1Evil55 I remembered that I don’t drive in the rain, but wash it often to remove the dust. Lately it’s been cool enough in Houston that I haven’t needed the AC, so I’ll keep checking after I run the AC...

    LED Side Markers

    @LS6-M22 Lol, I had a 2017 ZL1 and remember that it needed 4, but I have to admit your post made go out and look regardless 😂

    Water on the Driver's side floor mat and carpet

    I have the all weather mats and have never checked underneath, but will possibly check either today or by this weekend. Hopefully it’s dry!

    LED Side Markers

    We only need the two front ones as the back ones are incorporated into the rear taillight lens, unlike the Camaro.

    LED Side Markers

    Savage Cadillac now has front LED side marker lights IN STOCK with some options: clear or smoke lens/white or amber lights combos. They are at a great price (compared to GS and have continuous leds), so I ordered clear lens with amber leds for my Rift color 5BW last night and they shipped today...

    More Aggressive CT5-V Blackwing Carbon Front Splitter

    Were the plastic temporary wickers not included to provide an idea of the overall package? I'm curious on how they will go together at the bottom where they meet with the way it's cut back on the splitter.

    Battery Charger

    @rubberduck as you stated, with a “proper charger” and I would agree by adding with one that can automatically adjust. Same as a “variable charging” alternator, which is very common on most vehicles nowadays to save fuel efficiency and other claimed benefits. It puts out what is needed. I...

    Battery Charger

    @DonD an easy rule of thumb for safely charging an AGM battery is taking the amp/hr rating (believe a 5BW is 70AH rated, don’t know if a 4BW is the same) and multiplying by 10%. 70x10%=7amps is perfect in this case, but 4.3 works fine and takes a little longer to charge. IMO, charging at 15amps...

    Battery Charger

    I have several CTEK chargers from the small 0.8 for my generator to my truck size charger if theirs. They all work fine and if you leave them on longer enough, each has charged and float every battery for me with no issue. Charging a battery is misunderstood sometimes as most people don’t want...

    V-Series 20th Anniversary Merch

    I ordered some merch from them back on 10/19 (not the umbrella) and not one word. The only way I know that they received the order was my CC was charged immediately and when I log in, shows my order as not filled yet. Otherwise not a confirming email or notice of back order. Their communication...
