    Detailing thread

    Actually, that's better than constantly rubbing on the car. I'd rather my car get really dirty before I wash it than rub it down every few days to always keep it clean.

    PSA for those with EZ Pass and PDR

    Hmm, maybe that's why mine works in the glove box. We have variable tolls here, so I guess I need to check if I'm getting the regular rate or the "bill by mail" rate.

    2023 website build tools are online

    You need to get further away with a long lens, ha. But, is that the same color?

    Yep. 2022 5BW all four are auto. What a weird change.

    CT5-V Hill Start Assist with manual trans?

    It takes a greater grade than most other cars that I've had with hill hold. I've also noticed that if you let the clutch out (not crazy fast) without throttle pedal, the car takes off just fine. However, in the same situation, if you start to let the clutch out and barely tap the throttle the...

    PSA for those with EZ Pass and PDR

    I leave my transponder in the glove box and it seems to work so far, ha.

    Detailing thread

    Yes, it's the best way. Don't use gas...too much exhaust gets into the air stream and can undo your work cleaning the car. I don't worry about getting the car 100% dry with the leaf blower (as my neighbors 1. wonder why I am cleaning an already "clean" car, and 2. think I'm crazy for using a...

    Personalized license plate

    Sure. I'll probably go back to a standard plate once my wife sees it, then refuses to ride in a car with such a stupid plate...that could take months, though.

    CT5-V engine surge / "porpoising"

    Find a big Chevy dealer that works on a lot of new Corvettes. They can basically do anything (including warranty work) that the Cadillac dealer can do. Find "the Corvette tech" and try to book something with them. Corvette owners are next level "don't put a fingerprint on my car" owners and if...

    All Season Tire Question

    The tires for both the 4BW and 5BW are ingenuously named "stop flat" tires. They don't stop flats from happening, as the name would imply. Instead of run flat, which let's you run with them flat, they require that you stop when you get a flat. Makes total sense.

    Wheelspin = SDR card ejected

    Tirerack does list the proper TPC spec tires for the 5BW. I ordered a set since the fronts are on backorder, and I wanted to be first in line when they came in. Tirerack then called me to give me the info on the backorder. Basically, Michelin produces these tires in big batches, not year round...

    Carbon fiber PN database.

    I am actually referring to the deflectors under the car. I think it is 84624552. https://www.gmpartsdirect.com/oem-parts/gm-deflector-84624552 These strakes replace the larger plastic deflector on non-CF cars

    Wheelspin = SDR card ejected

    Buy them sooner than later. I talked to tirerack and they are not currently producing tires for the 5BW. They still have some rears available, but no fronts. I put my name on a set of rears, and they will send them to me when the fronts are made.

    Carbon fiber PN database.

    They aren't actually carbon fiber, but the front tire deflectors of the non-CF1 cars are replaced by under body strakes for CF1 cars.

    Took the BW to the track

    Hold on, is that front straight also a runway?

    '23 model year colors

    I bought a new Golf R a few years ago, and decided on white. (oryx white, which is actually really good for a white) Pretty much the week after I bought it I wish I had gone with Lapiz Blue, which is quite a rare color. Luckily, I now have a 5BW in Wave Blue, which is very close to Lapiz.

    Wheelspin = SDR card ejected

    Just to confirm, (FOR SCIENCE!!!) I hammered on my car today, got wheel spin, and the SD card situation stayed normal. I might have to try again every day forever, just to be sure.

    Wheelspin = SDR card ejected

    Did the SD card ACTUALLY come out of the slot, or did the SVR just stop recognizing that there was a card in the slot? Either way, pretty bizarre. I guess some weird vibrations going on in the back of the car, orrrr something?
