Re: STS-V owners, check in!

New member! Had my V for over a year (12-23-2005) but just found this site. Great source of info. I would submit some pics of my ride, but the poor thing is covered in snow (happens here in Chicago). Speaking of snow, I desperately need some new rims so I can mount a set of ADVAN S.4 winter tires. Anything would be better than the set of Euphorias on it now. Great in the summer, but almost worthless in the white stuff! Any links, sources or spots here in Chicago to pick them up would be much appreciated. Also posted my obligatory hello on the new member's lounge.

Re: STS-V owners, check in!

Got my ADVN S.4's at Duxler's tire in Evanston. They've been doing work on my cars for years. Very reputable. http://www.duxlertire.com/

Great tires btw.

Re: STS-V owners, check in!

Hi gang, I'm a 45 year old STS-V owner in Maryland. I've had the car since last May and it rocks! I have approximately 11K miles on it and love driving it every time I get behind the wheel.

Welcome! Hope to see you around here a bit.

Re: STS-V owners, check in!

Hey everyone...I just bought a black on black '06 STS-V here in Portland, OR. My wife had a fender bender with my 2000 GS400...which turned out to be $20k damage...so the car was totalled. lucky me. Local Cadi dealer was selling their '06's pretty cheap and i've wanted one for a while.

I drove it for 3 days and love it. feels considerably quicker than my GS and has way more cool gadgets. The bluetooth works great with my BB pearl.

Unfortunately i had to take it in for a "tire pressure sensor monitor service" ...which won't be fixed until monday, which means 7 days in the shop for what seemed like a simple repair. My GS was never in the shop over night for the 7 years i owned it. Hopefully this is a fluke...and the car is as trouble free as many of the posts indicate. until i get it back, i can barely stand having to use the KEY on my CTS loaner...how quickly we get spoiled.

Couple questions people may be able to help me with:

1) is there a way to set the steering wheel control to scan my presets instead of scanning all stations? scanning all stations is not very useful...

2) anyone know of a "lockpick" or like device to bypass the nav lockdown while moving?

3) anyone notice the driver seat feeling slightly "loose"? like it moves slightly side to side on hard cornering? little clicking sound...

4) does anyone know if the gain on the amp(s) can be turned up a tad. don't need much more, but some of my CD's don't have quite the volume i like.

Good Forum...seems very friendly and helpful.

Re: STS-V owners, check in!

OK... so I bit the bullet (or bought the bullet so to speak). I put a deposit on my dream STS-V last Friday. I will be picking it up in Dallas when I am there for vacation on March 22nd. I can hardly wait! I'll be driving it back to North Carolina with a few stops along the way to visit some friends and relatives along the way. I think the return trip will be half the fun of the vacation!

She's ebony black with added factory chrome wheels and sports the black and red interior (gotta have the red for an NC State alum).

All the talk from you guys in the forum has gotten me excited to finally get my own STS-V. I've been waiting for this car for a LONG time!

I just wanted to pop in with my first post and say hi to all of the fellow STS-V owners.

Welcome to the club! You are going to love the car!

I am also in Cary and would love to see your chrome wheels in person. I've been seriously considering this option but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Enjoy your vacation!

Ron
