Hello everyone, I recently purchased a 07 cts-v with 13k miles. I just had a couple of questions about some of the things Ive read on the forum. 1. Ive read some literature saying that after 2006, Cadillac fixed the rear differential problem that was causing the wine in...

I am considering selling my current car (information concerning car deemed inappropriate for forum) and getting into a CTS-V. I've read about the 04/05 being more prone to rear end failure, but hadn't heard much concerning the 06/07. Are these still prone, and does anyone have any...

Hi, am replacing all my shocks on my 1970 Eldorado, i have found some front monroes, and acdelco rear air adjustable vertical shocks (from rock-auto) but cant find any rear HORIZONTAL shocks listed anywhere.. anyone got any ideas? manufacturer/part number/supplier? I notice the horizontal...

Ok here is the background story. Bought an 09 G8 GT loaded in March w/ 3k on the clock for 27k. The week after I bought it the drive shaft had issues and needed to be replaced. It took 5 weeks to get that done w/ a rental, had it for 1 week got in an accident, took 6 weeks to get fixed after 2...

I am finally ready to get my diff and of course with my luck its after Madman no longer offers the IRS so who is going to step up and build me a bullit proof IRS rear to eventually handle 800+ rwhp? GForce, Hendrix, and who ever else may have the talent, please speak up and tell me what you...

After a few days with this car, I've a few questions about it: Where do you guys shift? I've hit the damn rev limiter about 4 times already. Mine's an LS2 car if that matters (dunno if the limiter is different on the 6). I try to shift right before the needle swings past the first red hash...

Are there any related reliability issues? If I am looking at purchasing one. Also, what sort of value would you place on an 04 with it, a Borla Exhaust, and Magnetek ECU? I'm not all too keen on the idea of the super charger, and prefer the 07 but price may change. It has 30,000mi and is...

Ok guys, it's time to start cranking out the axles for the CTS-V's. What you get, 300m axles (anti wheel hop big and little axles), 300m inner axle stubs, 4340 outer axle stubs, our special built heavy duty cv joints. All our parts come in a nice baked on black poly finish. Our axles also...

My 2005 CTS-V "diesels" after shut down. From what I've read on the forum, that means the liquid filled motor mounts are shot? The wonderful car runs like a scalded cat. Is there any long term damage that may be done? Thanks.

Lately I have been getting a vibration from my right front wheel. The intensity of the vibration will change depending on the speed I travel. I took it to Sam's and had my buddy balance the tire, but it only helped slightly. My dad said that it could be the tire, so tonight I decided to rotate...

As my other post mentions, I sold my modified V on Tuesday of last week. I get a text message from the new owner yesterday that the diff blew up. Didn't even own it 5 days! The car has the Gforce1320 half shaft on it too, and from what I understand it happened during a roll. When I sold the...

Well needless to say I'm very happy with the car thus far. I just picked it up Saturday. Silver 47,000 miles I had 2 years ago a 2000 Z28 with cam, longtubes, gears...436/394 to the wheels. I may or may not want to go the cam route, but I know I want to get into toying with the car. I know...

Anyone having any problems with their rear rims rubbing on the strut bar on the inside of the wheels?

1. One Bar - the short bar made thick, this would be for the "budget" guy that want to take some of the wheel hop out and not spend a fortune. the kit includes the bar, boots, clamps and grease. Retail : $299.99 Forum Price : $254.99 2. Both Bars - same as above and includes the other side. The...

Anyone had to order a new rear cradle from GM notice if the rubber bushings are the new style that were upgraded from 06 and 07 models?

Has anyone pressed out old 04 to 05 style cradle bushings on 4 corners and replaced with newer 06 07 style bushings?

Spectre works only makes em for 04 and 05...

I was sitting in my office and watched a guy back into my car. Worst thing ive seen all day.

I have an 04 CTS-V (in service date is Mar05) with 53K on it. It is stock except for a BMR diff brace I added after the diff bushings were replaced. The CPO warranty runs out in Mar and I have had a few trips to the dealer for a new alternator, motor mounts, diff bushings, and they recently...
