    CT5-V Disabling V4 mode

    And what's the concern even if the manual car did have AFM?

    But... but... they're BLUE! ;-)

    More Aggressive CT5-V Blackwing Carbon Front Splitter

    Well the photo I posted is direct sunlight; there's nothing more natural as far as lighting goes. Literally. ;-) My gut says that the pieces are two different colors, but I'll find out for sure when you get my LH side back to me.

    Nav System And iPhone Contacts

    Folks - I'm not some technical neophyte that doesn't understand the benefits of the systems available on the phones. And I don't need to compare/contrast them; that wasn't the purpose of my post. I was merely trying to determine whether there's a bit I missed that allows the phone to share...

    More Aggressive CT5-V Blackwing Carbon Front Splitter

    Not quite as distinct as the photo you posted and sent me, but there is a difference. This is the OEM RH deflector on top of your spoiler:

    Nav System And iPhone Contacts

    :) You're not grokking what I'm saying, and that's fine. I use the same carrier as you and have a fully updated, brand new iPhone. It's not any of the things you're mentioning. It's just a simple fact that phones do NOT always know where they are and there IS absolutely a lag when they're...

    Nav System And iPhone Contacts

    Uh, well, not from my use. I have the car. And I've used the OEM nav vs CarPlay. The OEM's is snappier, as is the case with just about any of GM's nav systems. You may not notice the slight lag, and the fact that the phone needs to figure out where it is, which direction it's pointing, etc...

    Nav System And iPhone Contacts

    My 2015 GMC pickup has an older GM "link" nav system in it that does not have Apple Carplay. It does, however, allow me to use my phone's contact list as destinations for the nav system, which is pretty handy. Can the CT[4,5]'s nav do the same? Or do they just expect you to use Carplay for...

    More Aggressive CT5-V Blackwing Carbon Front Splitter

    The difference in color is pretty stunning. I'm really curious to see what color the other one is when I finally pick it up: will it match that same dingy brownish color of the first one, or be a sharper black like your splitter?

    PDR Audio

    Not really surprising. I'm sure those cars are all wired for sound. ;-)

    PDR Audio

    I'm going to necro this thread a bit. Something may have just been broken in this weekend, allowing me chance to dig into higher revs. Maybe. ;-) I grabbed my audio gear and a couple of SD cards, and did a thing. It was a short drive of a few miles, but the audio differences should...

    CT5-V Dumb Question: Lug Nut Part Number?

    Local dealer had 4 of them: $50 with taxes included. Good 'nuff for me. No more security lugs.

    CT5-V Dumb Question: Lug Nut Part Number?

    Thanks, I saw that lug on gmpartsgiant but they require you buy a bag of 10 of them. If my local dealer is open on the holiday tomorrow, I'll check with them.

    CT5-V Dumb Question: Lug Nut Part Number?

    I'm guessing he did the former; they're nowhere to be found in the trunk, glove box, or any of the car's storage.

    CT5-V Dumb Question: Lug Nut Part Number?

    I despise security lug nuts and had no idea the Blackwing was coming with them. I want them off, meaning I need four replacements. Anyone got the part number handy for the standard almost-chrome-but-not-quite lug nuts on the 5BW? I see a couple of options on sites like gmpartsgiant, etc; just...

    Blackwing Order Tracking - 2023 Model Year

    Maybe, but it shouldn't be. I am, as always, thankful for the engineers I know within GM that help with things like this. But I'm one customer and GM has millions of others. How's that a good business model to whiz in the Wheaties of everyone else like that? It isn't. One of the...

    Blackwing Order Tracking - 2023 Model Year

    I have the car, finally. It was put into GM's system back in September of last year, at a dealership that didn't have an allocation. I wasn't sure when they'd get one, but I was OK waiting. For a bit. Things happened, folks within GM pulled some strings for me, and a VIP Allocation was...
