    Personalized license plate

    Great point. The people going over 100 on our freeways are self centered people who are putting everyone's life at risk. Just because you have a fast car doesn't mean you should drive it irresponsibly.

    2023 CT5 Blackwing engine failure

    Sorry about your troubles. I assume you have not modified the car. It is likely that GM will stand behind the warranty and either fix the engine or give you a new one. 21,000 miles on the rear tires is incredible. I won't be able to do that.

    Quality Dealer Service

    One of the BMW dealers in our area overfilled my 540 by 2 quarts and that car had a dipstick. I guess the dipstick didn't check the dipstick.

    120th Anniversary Edition #2010

    Paying 138K for a CT5 Blackwing special edition is way overpriced, but if someone is willing to pay for it, that's their choice.

    Warranty Block on 4BW M6

    You can call Cadillac customer service and ask about the warranty to see if it is intact and if there is a warranty block on the car. You can also do this online. I highly recommend that on any used Cadillac, especially the Blackwing models. I have not had an issue with other manufacturers in...

    4BW A10 shift flare/hesitation 3-4 shift

    Underfilled ATF will certainly increase wear on our transmissions. It would be interesting to measure what comes out of these transmissions during a transmission drain and refill.

    4BW A10 shift flare/hesitation 3-4 shift

    I love extra horsepower, but at the expense of voiding my warranty, it's a hard no for me. If I have the car out of warranty, then all bets are off.

    4BW A10 shift flare/hesitation 3-4 shift

    With any tune, GM can walk away from a warranty issue if they can prove that this tune contributed to the warranty claim. GM can deny the warranty claim and they expect you won't be able to do anything about it. Don't tune these cars.

    Fit and Finish Issues - '23 4BW

    You are 100% correct about the laziness of people. We need a work ethic and not an entitlement ethic.

    Warranty Block on 4BW M6

    I don't know if other manufacturers do the warranty block, but this is the first I have heard of this practice.

    Warranty Block on 4BW M6

    This is good reason to buy an automatic and check to see if there is a warranty block before buying a used car. Also, can't they design a rev limiter so this doesn't happen with a manual transmission? Is that possible?

    How much oil to add when it’s on the bottom mark of the dipstick for the 4 BW?

    Why is your oil low? I am not using any oil at all, even after 2,000 miles after the last oil change. Perhaps you are tracking the car or running the car more aggressively. Nothing wrong with either situation, just different driving styles.

    4BW A10 shift flare/hesitation 3-4 shift

    No. Mine is smooth as silk and so much better than the awful transmission in my past ATS-V.

    You are all "Rational Heroes"

    Your comment wasn't offensive. It was funny. Camry drivers in general are just interested in arriving at their destination and are not car enthusiasts. I have owned my Camrys over my lifetime. They are great cars, but they are not performance oriented, but they are reliable.

    You are all "Rational Heroes"

    Or perhaps the people who are driving Camrys are the smart ones and are thinking it's not how I get to work, but how to arrive at work in the most cost efficient way.

    Car& Driver Review

    I won't be buying any EV vehicle. I'll keep mine until I need a different ICE vehicle for various reasons. Being dependent on these charging stations is not my cup of tea and the range of EVs is poor at best.

    Car& Driver Review

    My Blackwing 4 is the best car that I have ever owned. Love the car. What a shame that most people don't even know that it exists and that GM is making so few of these beautiful machines.

    Need help with CT5V BW vibration

    Does it vibrate when you only apply the brakes?

    CT5-V Wind noise?

    My local BMW dealer in Oregon would not process a warranty claim on a clutch and flywheel. There was a vibration in the clutch and at first the dealer said no problem, you are under warranty. The car was less than a year old with less than 10k miles on it. After they evaluated the car, they...
