    Blown Engine(add me to the list)

    I just bought my 7yr/56000 mile $100 deductible warranty from MacMulkin in NH. They had the best price around for $1800. I posted their complete price list somewhere in the forum under extended warranty. Atlantic Cadillac wanted $3800 !!! Paul Conte offered friend/family price (friends of...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Put a Fumoto Valve on that oil pan and you will never have to remove the drain plug again.

    Blown Engine(add me to the list)

    My brother pushed Mercedes to extend his warranty after a brand new 2024 ECU issue and he had to wait over 2 months to get his car back. It costs the dealership nothing to give that courtesy.

    Brembo develops brakes with almost no brake dust and less wear

    Wheel cleaner suppliers have lobbyists in DC trying to end this .

    CT5BW Order- VIN 860574- Built May 8, 2025- Help w/ Shipping Expectations?

    The factory likes to have them sit in a parking lot for a while......kinda like how a meatloaf has to sit before its ready.

    Blown Engine(add me to the list)

    I would just be worried about "who" is installing the new engine and do they know what they are doing. At the assembly line it goes like clockwork how things are installed. Once its all together it can be a nightmare to work on.

    Blown Engine(add me to the list)

    I just watched a You Tube video of an engine block out of a 2024 Escalade with "FOUR" miles on it ! It had a broken rod connector . Upon inspection it appears that the wrist pin was not seated correctly. Then they find the wrist pin clip broken inside the engine. Its amazing how such a...

    Best Upgrades 5BW

    I bought them from Amazon for $75. The company was called Gee Gee Top. Had my stereo/elec guy install them for $100. The hardest part was taking the trunk upholstery out. The original reflectors pop out from under the bumper cover....watch out for a hot exhaust on the right. Then you have...

    How the heck do I replace the battery!

    I agree....getting access to the trunk battery is very tight. When hooking up the quick-connect plug that came with my Schumacher, I needed to wedge a paint brush handle to keep from cutting my hands.

    Petty's Garage

    I am also on the ChallengerTalk.com Forum and was saddened to hear that the Petty Family has suddenly closed down their performance vehicle and parts garage. Employees are already gone and their website has been taken down. I Googled it and there isn't even any news on the internet. Long...

    CT5-V Pictures of Bare v CF1 v CF2

    I personally am not a fan of the expensive carbon fiber and back in 2021-2022 you either had to wait many, many months or you never got an allocation at all. I carbon fiber wrapped the door rocker panels, the front spoiler and trunk spoiler. Cost me a few hundred bucks for 3M wrap when I got...

    How the heck do I replace the battery!

    I use the Schumacher maintainer. Attached a quick plug in the trunk directly to the battery.

    Trunk Issue

    I took mine off last year when I installed the sequential brake/signal lights. I am pretty sure that you must pop off the square black cover where the latch is. You will see a very small notch. Then IIRC you will see some bolts. Also, you must pop off the covers where the cargo latches are...

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    I saw a few years ago that a guy left his Blackwing with a valet parker and the valet tried to pull away from the curb to make a u-turn before the next oncoming car arrived. I guess he thought that the car would make the turn and he was wrong. The Blackwing got t-boned and totalled.
