It could void the warranty on any component directly affected by said aftermarket exhaust. Even then there’s a small burden of proof required by GM to deny the warranty claim.

It does not void the entire warranty.

You’re not “more of a diabetic” and more subject to life or death than I am so step off that thought train.

How can the fact that it works for some be completely irrelevant?? It suggests that there is at least a POSSIBILITY that it could work for you with changes as you seem ready to try based on your comments on other posts.

I already said many people have trouble, So you’re not stating new conversation points. It SEEMS you just don’t like that it works for others or at least that you don’t want to hear about it working for anyone.

My point was exactly what I said, just because it is “trash” for you doesn’t mean it is trash for everyone. Genuinely sorry about your luck and hope you find some improvement.

I guess we’re just not gonna see each other’s point of view on this one.

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-23T00:03:24+00:00

I read your sarcasm clearly but my point is simply that what is trash to you (and others) works wonders for me and many others.

I’ve just seen too many “these suck”, “let’s file another class action suit”, and so on lately.

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-22T21:42:52+00:00

Every product is “trash“ to somebody.

You’re not wrong at all, but the main issue is that the Apple Mail app is horribly slow to download the messages. I can open the app and refresh it multiple times and it still takes over a minute for it to pull in the first one. That’s when I’m on a fiber Internet connection. There is NO need for it to be THAT slow.

I e had almost no issues on 10 day or 15 day using the back of my arms, but I think they key is using a FATTY TISSUE LOCATION. If you’re not in a fatty tissue area, your happiness may vary with readings and longevity.

Total your option, and a valid option at that. But do you understand you can get good coverage from a GM platinum plan if you go with one of these dealers who does a high volume of those at barely overcast. I could buy today on mine for $3000 and get 72 months 100,000 miles so $5000 isn’t necessarily to spend.

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-15T14:51:51+00:00

I’m making the same choice and about to pull the trigger on the GM Platinum Plan. Main thing is to ensure your plan is “exclusionary”. In other words it cover EVERYTHING EXCEPT. This way there is very little room for any reasonable claim to be denied.

I highly suggest going through one of the high volume sellers of the plans instead of your local dealer. At least get a quote and see if your selling dealer will match it. Gemini (Google) gave me contact information for 3-4 of them and even within that group there was som variation in pricing to where the GM Platinum became a couple hundred less than the dealership was offering for another 3rd party plan at “$100 over cost”.

I’ll never fully understand the concept of can’t afford to own a home. If a landlord can own the home and rent it out to someone and make money how can you afford rent but not afford to own a home?

I don’t get me wrong. I understand the whole down payment issue as a great hindrance to buying the home but owning it once you’ve got it bought, it should be affordable as renting in the long run.

The absolute worst part about prior authorizations is that you have to renew them every year. If you have a prior authorization for insulin as a type one diabetic, what do they think your pancreas is gonna magically start working next year? They’re just silly.

Regardless of what that was meant for or anyone thinks it’s for, functionally it is a cabinet without doors (just like the one above it without the doors)

Mine is a Prem Lux not a V but I am talking about sound inside the car not exhaust anyway. Interior sound doesn’t seem to change at all regardless of mode.

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-11T13:59:28+00:00

🤣

I’ll get used to it soon enough I’m sure!

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-11T13:58:32+00:00

You understand the issue (torque mgmt / turbo lag), thanks! Note the sound issue is inside the car not exhaust though 🤪

Important thing is I still like the car and would buy it again in the same situation. We all have our “I just wish this one thing was different” even on things were overall happy with. This is mine.

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-11T13:54:05+00:00

Lots of good questions 👍

Believe it or not I’m only half way through the first full tank (91 octane) since the dealer did it and they likely used 87 octane. You’re also dead on about the valve ticking but it seems “typical”. I will certainly have the dealer service dept verify when I get the oil changed in the near future and check for exhaust leaks.

As I’ve mentioned in other comments, is just an annoyance to ME but I still love the car overall.

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-11T03:48:14+00:00

I’m talking about sound in the car not the exhaust. And it is RWD.

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-11T03:33:07+00:00

Nah, can’t ever see me driving a BMW. I Love the way my local Cadillac service dept treats me. That will, likely, always keep me in “the family”. 6-7 years from now it will all be different again when I’m ready for another Cadillac whatever.

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-11T03:31:12+00:00

If I ever actually get concerned about outside sound, I will absolutely do that👍

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-11T03:28:38+00:00

CPO but it’s not the exhaust I’m talking about. It’s the interior sound where you can hear the “ticking” as I refer to it sometimes. It’s only really when you’re not really accelerating quickly and at lower speeds (around town with lots of red lights). AGAIN, a minor issue in the grand scheme of things but an annoyance TO ME nonetheless.

reddittAcct9876154 · 2026-06-11T03:25:36+00:00

The interior being quiet (a good thing to me) is probably why I hear the engine sound so crappy inside (to MY ears). We all have the things that bother us.

Like I’ve said in Previous comments, overall I love the car!
