Anyone use an aftermarket Nav update like this one: SD Card The official update is from last year and sold out. I don't connect my phone to my car for anything other than voice calls so I use the built in Nav system a fair bit.

I got mine from Amazon and installed it the other day. The fit is ok, they are way off on the curve but I have to say I didn't notice when driving it today. So far so good, I use the Nav maps a lot so it helps.

Different octane fuels do blend, so adding 2 litres of 100 octane for every 8 litres of 91 should get close to 93 octane.

Sounds like a pretty obscure set of conditions before you could possibly hear this noise again. I have only ever run 91 octane, and always in automatic mode with no issues in that regard. Trust the engineering, it's not perfect but I think you have nothing worth worrying about.

I'm going to try thiS one from Amazon: Screen Protector

I'm looking for a screen protector for my 2023 C8. I want to reduce the glare and fingerprints. Anyone have any they can recommend? There are a couple on Amazon but the reviews are not very good. To be clear I want it only for the infotainment screen to the right of the steering wheel...

I will soon do the 12k km DCT filter change. Might add it to my fall maintenance list for every other year which works out to 6 or 7000 km.

I ended up buying two more bottles from the dealer, and found them to be the same yellow color. So I went ahead and changed the fluid. Disconnected the battery. Hooked up the power bleeder. Did RR,LR,RF,LF, both screws. I did not worry about the ABS system. Reconnected the battery, went...

So I'm getting ready to do my three year brake fluid change, and I opened a bottle of GM 19299570 Dot4 and poured it into my power brake bleeder. WTF it's as yellow as piss. I pour a second bottle in...same thing. The fluid I siphoned was clear, as expected with only 10k on the clock. Can...

For the record, you are not required to replace the external DCT canister filter at the 3 year service mark for a 2023 model. Only the fluid needs changing. You can verify this in your owners manual. You are required to change the canister filter for the first time at 12000km. In your case...

It's sad how combining two seperate service items dealing with similar procedures gives you zero savings at the dealer. The whole thing should have cost half of what you paid, at most. I would say that for most people buying a service plan is worth it. Kudos to you for keeping up with the...

"not healthy,it is" That's my vote. Sounds like that transmission needs a new flux capacitor. Just in case the issue turns out to be something else, please keep us posted. I am soon going to change the fluid on mine, no issues so far at the three year mark.

Interesting video. That preignition chamber is cool. I hope the engine proves reliable.

That's what Yoda should have said, but in the movie he actually says "is the future". Check out the YouTube clip called "[ESB] Seeing the future". ;)

For those in MB and SK, check out Marsollier Petroleum. Paid $250 all in for 24 bottles. That works out to $10.42 per bottle. The dealer wanted $28 a bottle. They have a website if you want to find the nearest dealer.
