Wish she always stayed this clean lol

Feels like there used to be a ton of them on marketplace and some of those other online used car sites around 5 years ago. But looking for them now online and they're far and few between; and I can't even remember the last time I saw a manual ATS-V for sale. Doubly so for the manual sedans.

So did they chuck parts like crazy or have people just decided that they don't want to get rid of them if they got 'em?

2022 CT5 AWD 350T. My first car was a 1987 Cadillac DeVille and my last car will be a Cadillac. It’s cool to see everyone else’s rides.

I am looking at the used market for a CT5 Blackwing. There are a number of 2023 models with really low mileage < 5K for sale. Is there something with this model year that people are not holding on to them?

I drive a 2014 Cadillac ATS, 2.0t FWD. For the past two months, my Engine Light has been intermittently on. Since my car is currently valued under $6,000, I visited a local car service shop instead of going to the dealership service department. They provided me with the error code listed below. Neither I nor the staff at the service shop understand what's causing the issue. Is this a significant problem? Do I need to address it immediately, or would it be better to consider purchasing a new vehicle?

Thanks in advance.

Why wouldn't I want a V? I really want a nice engine. Can do a lot of wrenching myself, but a newer Caddy at all of me reaching a bit as a new dad. Probably looking at a CT5 vs a CT4-V.

Furthermore, it seems the 5 would feel more luxury and the 4V is a regular 4 with a big engine? Maybe the answer is a CT5 Sport?

Hers is a 2016 ATS mine is a 1962 coupe DeVille.

Just bought another project for myself an 11 DTS with 90,400 Miles. I've confirmed it's leaking from the oilpan gasket and half case trying to decide if I should reseal or rebuilt my engine. Miles are getting highish now but still runs as strong. So should I just a reseal kit andcall it a day or should I get the motor rebuild instead.

I can do the reseal myself with some help but to do a rebuild I would need to take it to a shop. So what do you guys think?

Anyone have this issue / have advice as to how to silence it? My sunroof (2016 CTS) works fine, the shade is a little off track but that's a relatively minor annoyance. But when the sunroof is closed it creaks pretty often. When you're turning/going over a bump/whatever. Basically when the chassis is bending slightly around it, the noise happens. Sometimes it sounds like a creak and at other times it sounds like a golf ball is rolling around on top of the glass (it's not I checked.)

Dealer offered to replace the whole cartridge for 3k and was otherwise no help. I'm not particular, if a piece of chewed gum or well hidden duct tape will silence it, I'm for it.

Hello,

After being burned twice by some Alfa Romeo reliability foibles and lack of dealerships, but absolutely falling in love with the car's handling and luxury and wanting to still have that level of driver's car and engagement, I have landed on the Cadillac CT4-V as being a worthy option for replacement. I do have the cash to buy one new, but I am also seriously considering buying one used, so I was hoping you could all help me out with what to look for and how to best go about buying one when going used to ensure it is a car in good working order. A few questions:

• What is depreciation on this car like? Is it heavy enough that going used is indeed a good option or have they been holding their values well?
• I am always very particular about engine break in whenever I had a used car. I know that when the car is below its break in period the redline is lowered, but to my surprised when I test drove a new one with 20 miles, the car still let me go beyond the 4k redline. Is there anyway to tell on a used one if the engine has been broken in properly?
• My understanding is only RWD gets the magna ride suspension which really makes the car handle like a dream and feel similar to what the Giulia did. How much worse is the AWD suspension? My preference is always RWD, but I do live in a northern climate. I can always get snow tires if need be, but I just want to make sure the RWD with magnaride really truly is a must.
• I would like one with the digital gauge cluster. What year did that debut? 2021 or 2022?
• In general are there any years that have more issues than others and should be avoided?
• When going through the cadillac website to build one, I was quite confused as to which package had what. For someone who lives in a colder climate and will likely autox the car and maybe take it to the track 2x a year, which packages are must haves?
• How do you all find interior luxury? The first one I sat in I immediately felt that oh the luxury is a step down from Alfa, but then I feel like it is more just a different design philosophy. But then I turned on the seat massagers and cooled seats and was in heaven! Does it feel still premium and special?
• How is the seat comfort for long drives?
• I have heard some people (I believe non Cadillac people) gripe at the engine for its reliabulity and performance being a engine from a Silverado or something. Is there any basis in that? Does the engine have some issues?
• The Giulia had the famed ZF8 transmission which has been known to be bullet proof. I know GM designed their own here. How bulletproof have they proven to be?
• Do many people run the JB4 piggyback on the platform? Any issues in that reliability?
• Are there any other common issues that I should look out for on test drives and see if they've been resolved and/or are present?

Those are all the questions I can think of but you are all likely a wealth of knowledge and absolutely any tips you could give a potential new owner would be extremely appreciated!

Also, if there are any owners who went from an Alfa to this platform, I'd love to here your thoughts.

Seems like it’s been so hot that whatever this material is has been melting?

Looking for EBCM and BPM antilock brake system. General motors has discontinued these parts, looking for new or used, will pay shipping. Have the gm part number I need as well. Yes, I know how shit the northstars are, so please save it lol. Pic for attention :)

Im inlove with the ct5 since 5 years and i want a daily car for my small trips and my job, is there a different between the CT5 and CT4 to consider thinking about? Or just stick with the CT5

Got new tires yesterday on my 2016 cts - 245/18. apparently one of my wheels is bent a bit. Which is a good excuse to go get new wheels. I've never been a fan of chrome against my phantom gray cts, would like to go darker. anyone recommend wheels that would look good? I don't know what I'm looking at beyond diameter/width.
