I bought one in August this year fantastic car in many respects quite a few unknowns about the motor build specifically and options that you would consider like what tires are really best for that those original good years etc. any thoughts on optimization optimization
Hey, glad you are excited! I did a full post on replacing the original F1s and how they relate with the Pilot 4S here on Facebook. facebook.com/groups/700842510011000/permalink/3503039699791253/ If you have any other questions please feel free to let me know!
Depends on what you are looking for. I personally use this as a daily so my selections are Noise: Track Steering: Auto Suspension: auto That way if I need a little harder suspension and feel, I just switch to sport. I do not use track on the roads as suggested due to the high probability of damage on the wheels and suspension.
@@alhaughton3009 I’m interested in this as well. But additionally, I would appreciate any info on best replacement all weather tires . Also on other questions and my own experience with it .
The peak torque is found around 4,900-5,200. There is no need for it to be around the red line on this engine other than sound. When I do drag it, I usually throw it in manual mode so I can hold it a little longer to around 5,100, but that’s all I need. Mind you also that it has 10 gears compared to the CTS-Vs 8. So it has a bit of playing to do.
@@nicholasjohnson6880 Gotcha. I don’t have a CT6-V, I own a 3.0TT CT6 and was watching this and other videos to learn more about the CT6-V in order to determine if I want to upgrade to one. I’d probably put it in M mode myself like you said for more of an aggressive sound and to shift a tad bit later. I doubt if I’d have much luck finding one in the first place haha.
Understandable. If you can make the upgrade, I would highly encourage it, either the V for performance and feel or even the platinum for looks and sound. If you need anything in regards to that let me know.

What is the best mode to keep it on
Depends on what you are looking for.
I personally use this as a daily so my selections are
Noise: Track
Steering: Auto
Suspension: auto

Do you know if there's a way to activate Launch Control while in competitive mode?
Unfortunately due to this being AWD Cadillac did not install Launch Control on these cars. You're on your own when it comes to launching sadly.
Great info, do you have anything else on the ct-6 V
Hi, also can you shut off those Nanny controls in any other mode aside from track mode
Nanny controls as in what sir? The top speed?

50/50 biased in snow mode?
No, the only changed are made in the main driving modes.
I just don’t like how the car upshifts at such low RPMs. It should upshift at 6,500-7,000 RPMs
