    Jacking up your Blackwing

    Don't understand the fuss. Manufacturers have been using pinch weld locations for jack points for a very long time.

    CT5-V Factory Destroyed 2023 CT5-V Blackwing

    Probably transporter damage. I don't think it could have left the factory like that.

    Where are some of the DIC tiles in the 25/26 5BW?

    How to get to it is listed starting on page 109 of the manual. Are you saying it is not there? Seems unlikely.

    I know of a CTS and a CT5 (V or VBW), but never heard of of a CTS5V Blackwing. 🤷

    5BW coolant level

    If you look closely on the side of the tank, below the cap, there is an embossed indicator with arrows pointing down to the seam as the level indicator. So, the seam. like you said. :) .

    Curated by Cadillac - Hand built CT5BW

    I track every fill-up and the computer is always more generous with the MPG than actual (averages 6.13% or 1.56 MPG higher). My previous ATS DIC reading was jus the opposite (actual better that the computer), but only by ~.7 MPG on average).

    Cracked Wheel / Rim and Tire Sizing Question

    I think the 245/40-19's that come on the 5V are just right. 35/20's ride harsher. Recently went to Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus and couldn't be happier with the change in ride comfort over the stock A/S RFs I had.

    Curated by Cadillac - Hand built CT5BW

    To me the Phantom Blue interior is the most unusual/different and a little on the sporty side. Signet and Oxford Stone with Cinnamon is opulent/rich/refined. Signet and Juniper is similar to just above but a little more subdued.

    Curated by Cadillac - Hand built CT5BW

    So many of those colors would be so striking. I bet people wish they would just turn the color palette loose for any order. They would be spraying a lot of cars and people would pay for it.

    Is this normal Cadillac Service?

    Sadly, my local dealer is more like the OP describes. If you want a courtesy car, appts are a month or more out. And when you get the car there, it may not be assigned to a tech for many days. I have an appt coming up for an issue and told them I did not want the car to sit on the lot and to...
