    CT4-V Blackwing...kind of slow

    I’ve had the opposite experience, my 4BW feels pretty dang fast to me personally. My last two cars prior to the BW were a Shelby GT350 and C7 corvette and honestly, I have more fun driving my BW and it feels just as fast on the streets. I’ve surprised many mustangs, Camaros, etc around here...

    4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    No clue honestly but that could be a possibility. I need to learn more about fixing cars and how things work. I personally don’t have a lift or anything to get underneath the car and look around. I tried cranking the AC like @Jdeee mentioned but I’m no longer hearing the squeak on my car. It’s...

    Spring Mountain Impressions

    When I bought my 4BW, the salesman never even mentioned anything about Spring Mountain. I’m surprised because that would’ve made his sale much easier lol. I’ll make sure to give him a hard time for not telling me haha. This looks really awesome, going to sign-up for a future session. I’ve...

    4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    Ah interesting. I’ll try this out asap, thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately I nearly broke my foot so I can’t drive the car for a few weeks. Best of luck at the dealer, hopefully they get it sorted out. Keep us posted!

    4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    I haven’t resolved the issue unfortunately. That being said, I’m hearing it less often now that I’ve put more miles on the car. Sitting at 1800 miles now.

    4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    I came across someone else facing my same exact issue on Reddit! Sounds like serpentine belt squeak when applying throttle from idle. He has the exact same year 2023 4BW and it’s also a 6 speed manual, like mine. So far, he told me they replaced his left turbo but that didn’t work. So he took...

    Roll Call

    Hey all! It’s awesome reading about other people’s journeys here, great idea starting this thread. I just purchased my 4BW last month, really loving it so far. I’m originally from Kentucky but I currently live in South Florida. I’m 29 years old and I’m a software engineer for a living, graduated...

    CT5-V Squeaking noise when pulling away from a stop or throttle at low RPM

    Yeah it could be. Same with OP, I noticed it only happens when the car is warm. I’ll have the dealership take a peek when I get my first oil change done. My car is brand new, less than 1k miles.

    CT5-V Squeaking noise when pulling away from a stop or throttle at low RPM

    I posted a thread on a similar sounding issue, but I have a 4BW. Does it sound like any of the videos I shared? The post can be found here: Thread '4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS' 4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Picked the car up today after getting PPF and a basic ceramic coating. Took a bit longer than expected but they did a good job. The side mirrors have some lines you can see but overall I’m super happy with it. Excited to start putting some miles on this thing!

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Getting prepped for the PPF install! I will never see it this clean ever again haha.

    CT5-V 5BW polished wheel/tires for Satin Graphite wheel/tires trade?

    I have the polished wheels and I’d be willing to trade but I have a 4BW. Are the wheels the same size on the 5BW? Doubtful but figured it was worth asking! I’ve been looking for a set of black wheels or satin graphite. I just got my 4BW, the polished wheels are in perfect condition.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Dropped my 4BW off for PPF and ceramic coating yesterday. So excited to see the car when it’s done. This is the first time I’ve ever done any paint protection. I decided to protect the paint first before ordering a new set of the satin graphite wheels. That’ll be my next mod hopefully!

    Thanks for sharing this! Agreed, they do sound like different issues.

    4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    Ah man, so it sounds like this is a pretty common issue then. I’ve been taking it easy on the car, just passed 500 miles. I might just live with it for now, don’t want the dealership making things worse lol.

    4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    Appreciate the feedback. I’m really thinking that the issue is the wastegate. I believe that’s what I’m hearing.

    4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    Updated my post because it happens anytime I give the car light revs or when lightly accelerating, such as when rolling away from a dead stop. I hear you though 😂, it’s a fair point. I’m coming to this car from a Shelby GT350 so it’s muscle memory at this point, but I need to change that haha.

    4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    Thanks for the heads up! Definitely doesn’t sound normal. Likely not a big deal but will bring it by the dealership for investigation.

    4BW - Chirp/Squeak Sound Low RPMS

    Interesting! Thanks for letting me know. Mine is pretty loud. I notice it at red lights, or anytime I need to move from a dead stop. I attached a few videos of the noise that I’m hearing, does yours sound similar to what you hear in the video?
