    CT5-V Blackwing preignition / pinging

    My blackwing has preignition knock (the marbles in a can sound that most of us haven't heard since the 70s or 80s). It doesn't happen all the time - it's only at wide open throttle under high load, and not every time I use WOT. I am convinced this is NOT normal as this is my second 5...

    Spare parts / PDI

    I had my dealer skip PDI - I'm glad I did as (unlike last time) there are no chips in the paint and the fenders are properly aligned. My salesman sent me this checklist, but it looks like the first page may be missing? First thing I did was remove the red spring spacers. Now the question is...

    CT5-V New CT5-V Blackwing needs new transmission prior to delivery. What to do?

    My car got delivered to the dealer 3 days after I left for a month-long trip. Since I am traveling and couldn't come into the dealership in person, we had a couple weeks of back and forth on the price (they wanted $7,500 ADM and I convinced them this sale was going to happen at MSRP). Got a...
