Replying to: richw5 (Nov 13, 2008 8:40 am) That's a common mistake. They were following an alphabetical pattern only.   They had the huge DTS, the Middle Sized CTS, and the BTS(which never was sold in the U.S.) The current CTS was meant to compete with the base 5 series at a *much* lower price.

Replying to: plekto (Nov 14, 2008 9:18 pm) "They had the huge DTS, the Middle Sized CTS, and the BTS. . ."   So, given that and GM's current "situation," there is surely an FTS somewhere in the mix in the not-too-distant future.

#2703 of 2757 Tire Pressure by arby1 Nov 20, 2008 (8:38 pm)
Now that it is freezing in NY , I noticed that my cold tire pressure was 30-31 , so I added air till 35 . However , during driving , when the tires get warm , the pressure goes up to 37-39 . Should I keep it under inflated , so that it is normal when hot , or keep it inflated at 35 , and ignore the fact that the pressure rises to 37-39 when hot .

Replying to: arby1 (Nov 20, 2008 8:38 pm) Always check tires cold and set the pressure to 35psi. Do not underinflate, the manufacturer has allowed for heat inflation.   From the owners manual: How to Check Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire pressure. You cannot tell if your tires are properly inflated simply by looking at them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they are underinflated. Check the tire’s inflation pressure when the tires are cold. Cold means your vehicle has been sitting for at least three hours or driven no more than 1 mile (1.6 km). Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem. Press the tire gage firmly onto the valve to get a pressure measurement. If the cold tire inflation pressure matches the recommended pressure on the Tire and Loading Information label, no further adjustment is necessary. If the inflation pressure is low, add air until you reach the recommended amount. If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve. Re-check the tire pressure with the tire gage. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture.

Replying to: bingoman (Nov 20, 2008 9:36 pm) Thanks a lot for the info . My concern was that when the weather was warm the cold tire pressure was fine , but the pressure got lower because of the outside temperature getting cold . I guess that during warm days when my cold tire is at 35 , the pressure also increases a lot too while I am driving . Thanks again .
#2706 of 2757 visual difference between 3.6 and 3.6DI by topgun7 Nov 30, 2008 (2:37 am)
I am shopping for a used CTS DI. Is there any way to tell a CTS is non-DI or DI? There are a lot of used CTS advertised in our local market but I am not sure if the salesman really know wether a particular car is DI or not. I would like to have an independent way of verifying the engine.. Replies to this message: 150mphclub (Nov 30, 2008 3:48 pm)

Replying to: topgun7 (Nov 30, 2008 2:37 am) There will be a small badge on the left side of the trunk lid that says "3.6 direct injection".
#2708 of 2757 All season wipers by dfusnik Jan 09, 2009 (5:00 am)
I've been wanting to install a set of bracketless all-season wipers(i.e. Bosch Icons or Valeo) on my 08 CTS, but can't seem to find a web site that sells them for my car. Can the CTS only use the factory wipers? Replies to this message: st4422 (Jan 09, 2009 7:46 pm)
