I think I'm with the rest of the forum who has posted here that you got a bum ride. Call Buick's regional manager and take it to a different dealer.

No... each stroke equals 180 turn of the crank. 1 Up stroke=Compression, 2 down stroke = ignition/expansion, 3 up stroke = exhaust, 4 down stroke = intake. A 1 cylinder, 4 stroke engine fires once for every two rotations of the crank.
-
I'll keep that in mind the next time I'm drag racing either....... speaking of drag, I love your new frock....
-
No. Rotations = revolutions. Typically, in 1 revolution of a 4 stroke engine, 1/2 of the total number of pistons fire. It takes two full revolutions of the crank for every cylinder to fire. I'm sure this varies by crankshaft design... but it's fairly close.
-
They have a history of favoring foreign brands over domestic ones...... even when the cars come off the same assembly line. When one displays bias like that it is hard to deem the rest of the information as reliable.
-
exactly how small do penises get anyway.....?
-
That is CR's way of saying "Pushrods suck". Keep in mind that the method's that CR uses to test cars...especially domestic cars...is not going to be anything remotely similar to normal driving.
-
Buy a Tesla.... no engine noise what so EVAR!
-
Sounds like a good deal. I think I want to wait for the upgrades from this or the '08 CTS. Won't this make Cadillac the second youngest lineup in the GM fleet?
-
I have no problems with this car... it may end up being a 2 year lease to hold me over till the CTS coupe comes out.
-
GM should really reconsider it's current stance on the future of the SRX.
-
yeah, that..... it comes up in every stinkin Buick review.... as if *REALLY* mattered that much in a car. Toyota gets away with a 10 cent LCD clock in every car it builds though.....
-
As "blah" as this car is it's an improvement.... guaranteed the press goes ape$h! over the damn green clock.
-
They got the grills on upside down...
-
Caught this parked in downtown Pittsburgh this afternoon.
-
Really GM... how hard would it have been to just use the Chinese design that you already did?
-
That Lucerne interior almost makes me think GMT-900..... not that it's a bad thing... but they should be more unique somehow.

you may have the stapler.... but I can do the voice impression.....

I can out nerd most of you. My other common username is Drewbert. I have a small model of Spock on my work desk and two models of the Enterprise on my home desk.... and that's just the start of it.

quiet shorty!
-
nascar is so f-ed up right now, I doubt it matters which car they choose to run as it likely doesn't do anything for sales anyway. You think Toyota is going to sell more Camries because they race them? They're all just jelly bean blobs with different stickers on them anyway. Wake me up when they race actual "stock cars"
-
damn, I really wanted a hummer

Holden's Alloy Tech V6 (aka HFV6) responds well to software tweaks
Drew Dowdell replied to Jamie's topic in Heritage Marques
So... if I read this right... he got it up to around the 255-260 mark that the CTS already had? -
what an ugly POS.
