    Rear reflector mod from amazon

    @1Evil55 same, I’ve on the fence as well about installing them, however, my return window has passed, so stuck with them. If the original reflectors are not hard to remove, I may play around with a temp setup to experiment and see if I like or not.

    “New” Car with 155 Miles

    As I stated in my message, confirming the “redline” was showing 4500 rpm for the first 499 miles. I didn’t check if the engine would let me do more than the redline. No reason to try to exceed the “redline.” Maybe you did? Not sure what you mean about “4500 miles for the first 500 miles” 🙃

    “New” Car with 155 Miles

    I have an auto 5BW and can confirm that the first 499 miles keeps the redline at 4500 rpm. At 500 miles it goes up to normal 6500 rpm.

    Blackwing Maintenance Regimen

    LS6-M22 is correct and recently another new part # will surface when typing either of the two others - 25206377 Many things lead to changes thus new parts #’s, such as different supplier, product changes, global packaging, etc.

    Cadillac Smart Driver and Privacy Concerns

    I would love to know who from GM thought that 80MPH was the “magic” number considering that on Hwy 130 on the East side of Austin has an 85MPH speed limit that Texas Transportation Commission determined safe & reasonable” after engineering study… There are other States with 80MPH speed limits as...

    Cadillac Smart Driver and Privacy Concerns

    Same here poor-sha, but finding it back on is not right. I wonder if it counts all of the track driving habits for those who track, then count against on insurance even though your not on a street?

    Cadillac Smart Driver and Privacy Concerns

    @jwolf99 I could swear when Throat Yogurt first posted, I checked my app on both of my GM vehicles and both were turned off on the screen shot you posted. I just logged in and appears the app was updated and when I checked again, it showed turned on for both vehicles!! Like everyone else, I...

    2024 CT5-VBW goes into limp mode

    The Escort Redline CI is an installed version in the car, which is hardwired directly vs a radar detector hanging from your windshield/rear view mirror where you can use a mirror tap or adapter.

    4BW A10 shift flare/hesitation 3-4 shift

    My 5BW A10 shifts solid and firm regardless of load. Of course if I increase load it hits even harder across each gear. No complaints. You mention yours is a 4BW, just figured I’d throw in about my 5BW & A10

    OW-40 oil OK?

    If your Escalade V has the 6.2L LT4 supercharged engine, then you need Dexos R 0W-40. If you just have a 6.2L L87 engine, then yes, 0W-20 is what goes in that engine. Unless something changed in 2024, which I doubt, here’s GM Tech Link snapshot.

    WHEEL/TIRE AND GAP INSURANCE PLUS ALL WEATHER MATS WITH NEW PURCHASE

    Congratulations on your new 5BW. I have the same all weather Cadillac factory mats that @BW56M posted and love them. Mine were an option included at time of purchase and have been fantastic. The car had in the trunk nice plush Cadillac carpet mats still in the bag, but I like all weather mats as...

    V-Series 20th Anniversary Merch

    If you call the Cadillac concierge number, they have never heard of the vseries20.com website and can’t help. That website is designed not be contacted and interesting enough, everything ships from the main 3000 Renaissance address where all of their normal merchandise ships from, go figure. It...

    CT5-V Floor mats with red piping?

    @Professor Speed yes, the teddy bear came with the Cadillac shirt. I forgot which site I found it at, but my wife thought has been joking about buying two more for the other two seats, lol.

    CT5-V Floor mats with red piping?

    I have an “always” with me passenger in the middle to keep him safe, and a red seat belt would be great color contrast to his shirt 😂

    CT5-V Floor mats with red piping?

    I would love the part number for the red center belt when that is discovered. Sucks that they built the car without it! The mats are cool @poor-sha , thanks for sharing.

    Hello From Houston Texas!

    There is a Houston chapter of V-Club according to their website. I’m not a member, so I can’t speak if good or bad.

    I see a lot of people not liking the sunroof option

    @Badillac, Well said!! I figure until someone wants to buy or give me a vehicle the way “they think” would be best; when I pay for it, I buy what I want and can give damn on what anyone else thinks when I paid for for it with my hard earned $$. As long as it makes me happy, that’s all that...
