CT5 adopts a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout and features standard mid-size luxury sedan dimensions (4924*1883*1453mm, wheelbase 2947mm). CT4 is positioned lower in the lineup. Although both models are equipped with a 2.0T engine, CT4's transmission is downgraded from 10AT to 8AT compared to CT5, along with shorter body length (4756mm) and wheelbase (2775mm for CT4-V). Here are detailed comparisons: 1. CT5 can be considered a direct competitor to German rivals (3 Series, C-Class, A4), with comparable pricing to their mainstream variants while offering larger dimensions - consistent with Cadillac's competitive strategy. 2. To boost sales volume, Cadillac's marketing explicitly positions CT5 against these German competitors, reinforcing this perception. 3. In terms of value proposition, the previous ATS-L could only rival entry-level German models (1 Series, A3), and CT4 might face similar positioning challenges.

What causes the loud bang when a car runs over a stone?

When a car runs over a stone and makes a loud bang, it could be due to the stone hitting the chassis, the sound coming from the suspension's lower control arm, or the shock absorber. If this happens, it is recommended to have the chassis inspected. More details are as follows: 1. Shock Absorber: The shock absorber in a vehicle is a wear-and-tear part. Most vehicle shock absorbers can last a long time, but their performance degrades over time. If you run over a large stone and hear a very loud noise, it might be coming from the shock absorber. 2. Oil Leakage: Some vehicle shock absorbers may develop oil leaks over time. If a shock absorber is leaking, it needs to be replaced. When replacing shock absorbers, it is recommended to replace all four at once. If only one shock absorber is leaking, it indicates that the other three are likely to start leaking soon, so it is advisable to replace all four shock absorbers together.

What happens if the thermostat fails?

Thermostat damage can lead to coolant leakage and engine overheating. The specific situations are as follows: Coolant leakage: The installation position of the thermostat is precisely at the connection point of the two circulation system pipelines. The water channel has an interface here, which poses a risk. Although the thermostat is equipped with seals, coolant leakage issues can still occur. Engine overheating: When the thermostat is stuck in the position that closes the large circulation, even if the coolant temperature can soften the paraffin, the large circulation still cannot be opened. In this case, the coolant itself cannot dissipate heat, which will quickly lead to engine overheating.

Can a car's odometer be adjusted?

Car odometers can be adjusted. Below is relevant information about car odometers: Components of a car odometer: A car odometer consists of a speedometer and a mileage counter. Adjustment method: Locate the odometer sensor connector on the car's clutch housing (the position varies, sometimes found on the transmission or driveshaft), then gently pull it out by hand.

What to Do If Your ETC Is Used by the Car in Front on the Highway?

If your ETC is used by another car when entering the highway and the barrier does not lift even after reversing and trying again, you can proceed to the manual lane and use your ETC card to pass. The information will overwrite the previous record, and no extra toll fees will be deducted. How ETC Works: ETC operates through an onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield, which communicates via dedicated short-range communication with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station. This system uses computer networking technology to process transactions with the bank in the background, allowing vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping while paying the required fees. ETC Usage Notes: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the car in front from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters when the car in front stops. This avoids the automatic sensing system charging your ETC for the car ahead. The ETC lane recognizes vehicles traveling at 20 km/h. If the speed is too fast, the system cannot read the vehicle's device information, leading to a failed toll deduction. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or if the ETC electronic tag falls off or becomes loose, will render the tag ineffective. You can take it to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service center for inspection. If the issue is not due to human interference, reactivation may be sufficient. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance can cause toll deduction failure. Follow the guidance of on-site staff to proceed to the manual MTC lane and use cash or card payment. If the vehicle's windshield is too thick, it may cause poor signal reception. This is especially important for vehicles that have had their windshields replaced after an accident or those with modified front windshields.
