My dealer, as polite as they are trying to be, has told me that my 6month old car w/ a hair over 3,000 miles has a problem, but they can't fix it. And to hope the problem gets worse so they can.
Are there any loopholes for the lemon law if the ca...

I'm calling the dealer tomorrow to schedule an appointment, but I'd like to go in with some info first.
This is repeatable, and it's not spinning tires (had people observe it).
On a cold start , if I give it more-than average gas from a dead s...

Hi,
Dumb question about the auto transmission's Driver Shift Control (DSC) in the 06 CTS... is it considered a tiptronic/steptronic (or some synonym there of)?
A friend states that it is, because I can select the gears going up and down. Howev...

Hey,
Any idea what it could be? I know diff is a possibility but don't know what else it could be.
I guess my luck ran out.
I picked up my new 06 CTS in early January. The last few days we noticed wet (oily) spots under the car, but only d...

I caught tonight's episode of Sopranos (March 26th).
Anyway, towards the beginning we see Polly in his Cadillac. Was that a CTS?
I only got a good look at the front so I couldn't tell if it was a CTS or STS....

Hi,
Dumb question, but for those that don't recall this is my first new car. The last new car I was in (let alone owned) was a 1989 Convertion van. Hopefully it's just "aluminum expanding" or something, but I want to be sure and don't ...

Hi,
I know there are posts about rough idles during cold starts. However, this has a slightly different twist than the other mentions, so I don't know if this is something different (or worse).
I put "plus" gas in my car from a stati...

This is a real dumb question, but as my CTS is my first new car I'm still babying it.
Anyway, how concerned should I be about speed bumps?
I ask, because a few years ago when I was still driving my parents' car (96 Buick Regal), I had to go thr...

Something odd happened today as I went out for lunch. A lot of my saved data was partially wiped from my XM presets.
On XM1, all of my stations simply read as their numbers (not the full name).
On XM2, some of the names becames corruped. Like &...

LOL,
I'm on like week 3 of my CTS. Until now I've been babying it while driving; taking it easy on the gas, taking the turns careful, etc. This is because of all of my friends/family saying "you need to get used to driving a RWD car." I ...

Ok,
Today I picked up my plates and registration from the dealer. I was quite confused at what I found.
The DMV classified my car as an 8 passenger Wagon.
To recap, I picked up a 2006 CTS w/ 3.6L, Auto trans, Sports pck, Lux pck, and Sun...

Hey,
This is a real dumb question, but I'm at work and can't really call my dealer and my half-read manual is at home.
Does the GPS Nav on a 2006 CTS take Voice Commands to the point that you can tell it an address?
When I picked up my car, my actua...

The DVD eject was stuck in a continuos loop for quite a while. It fixed itself a mile away from the dealer.
I took the car our today. It's new and this morning had 130 miles on it.
Anyway, I forgot to turn on the stereo/gps via the knob and got con...

Anyway, I decided to do some early break in driving today and put about 100miles on it.
The problem is, I was following traffic and was doing 80 mi/hr
I also had cruise control on every now and then (maybe 20 m...
