Howdy y'all,
CT4-V BW getting built as we speak. Very excited. I live in L.I. but due to a bunch of stupid situations I am driving alllllll the way to deleware to pick up my car. Few questions for people that have their babys already. Sorry if some of these sound dumb, I've been in the german life, so this is a whole new world lol
1. I come from Audi mostly, does anyone know if the mittyvac system works for oil changes on the CT4-VBW? It's mostly a function of the dipstick and below oil reservoir geometry. I still always drop the plug and the oil filter obviously, but love only having to handle 1/8 of a quart underneath the car or so while the rest is neatly sucked up by the mittyvac is just....nice. Just wondering if anyone has tried to do it and if it worked.
2. Anyone have any experience with APEX wheels? Probably going to order a set of VS-5RS. Good experiences? Bad? Anyone have a set and can tell me with offset/spacers they have used to get that flush with the fender look for front and rear?
3. Has anyone tried the 56" race ramps with this car? Do they work? Or do we need the 67"? I saw a couple threads but reading through them there wasn't a definitive answer for the 4BW for 56" with or without the front splitter as far as I saw. Mine doesn't have any CF but I will probably add the splitter aftermarket at some point. I have rhino ramps but not sure if they will be OK with their angle.
Thanks all
