    Funky Trunk

    Yep, I've pulled everything that is removeable out of the trunk to check things out. Dry as a bone. The charcoal is helping a bit but not as much as I hoped for. Don

    Funky Trunk

    Thanks for the input. I just put a charcoal bag in the trunk, will see how that goes. If it isn't a significant improvement, I'll try your option. Don

    Funky Trunk

    Hard to describe the smell but it's only in the trunk. I have some charcoal bags coming this evening. I'm hopefull that they will attack the smell. Don

    Should I buy a new one?

    Yeah, I've seen the threads. The internet just brings out all the negativity that exists. Case in point, I'm retired US Navy, a designated proven weapons specialist. I once called S&Wesson to compliment them on a gun I recently bought. The customer service woman said "You mean you just...

    Should I buy a new one?

    Where do you get this from? Who said the engines are prone to grenading? What, foot to the floor and missed manual transmission shifts? Don

    Funky Trunk

    I think I've exhausted my options for getting a pleasant smelling trunk or at least a neutral scent. It's certainly a good bit better than before though. Don

    Funky Trunk

    I've done that and have used some Windex which is showing promise in reducing the smell. Going to let it air out until this evening. Pretty sure I'll have a worthwhile improvement. Don

    Funky Trunk

    My CTV-4 Blackwing is 14 mo old, just turned 7000 miles. Bought it at 14 miles, very clean. Well prepped. From the beginning, the trunk has had a strange scent, nothing even remotely stinky has been carried in it. I've washed the heavy rubber floor liner with soap, hasn't helped. Anyone else...

    CT5-V 2023 Blackwing tow truck driver forgot parking brake = 😢

    Flame me if you want but that's really unethical. And a good dealership technician is likely to know what you did to it. And THAT would be really embarassing. Don

    Excellent Mileage

    Second trip into San Antonio, got slightly lower mileage due to a good bit more traffic on the uphill section. 28.9 combined. Don

    Despite considerably more traffic, I got 27mpg on the return trip. Don

    Excellent Mileage

    We live about 16 miles from San Antonio. Drove down and into the city for about 3 miles. It's downhill most of the way and the 4BW is totally stock. I got 33.6 mpg according to the instrument panel readout. Would need more than one similar trip and calculated through fillups but regardless...

    CTV4 Blackwing Tire Rotation

    Thanks for pointing out the additional reference and I agree with you, side to side doesn't seem to provide any benefits. Thanks much. Don

    CTV4 Blackwing Tire Rotation

    The manual calls for it at 7500 miles. I understand your issue, if you "rotate" side to side the outside of the wheeltire combination remains on the outside after the "rotation". Don

    CTV4 Blackwing Tire Rotation

    My totally stock Road Atlanta IMSA special edition has MIchelin PIlot 4S, 255/35x18 in the front and 275/35/18 in the rear. Though thiis isn't "rotation" of the past, side by side is called rotation in the owner's manual. Don

    CTV4 Blackwing Tire Rotation

    I know that but the side skirts make it extremely difficult. What do you want to call side to side???

    CTV4 Blackwing Tire Rotation

    I know that there are many posts regarding this issue. Simply putting "Tire rotation" in the search engine got me no where. I've done all my rotations for the past 60yrs and hate to shovel it off to the dealer. Discount Tire is even more expensive than the dealer. My car has the IMSA Road...
