I think someone posted about this a while back but I can’t seem to find it. Has anyone found a fix for the fast forward button on the right side of the steering wheel not working for audio? It seems to work sometimes with YouTube music but never works anymore with Pocketcasts. Small annoyance but irritating as it made it easier to skip ads.

I took a 186 mile each way this Monday. The area I was going to, Suffolk, VA was sparse on the charger maps, so I bought a Tesla adapter from Amazon labeled Amphenol, they manufacture lots of connectors so I figured it was a good choice.

When I got there, none of the stations worked. These were all high rate fast chargers. I tried this with both the Tesla app and the my caddy app. Each would recognize that a cable would connect, but would never start charging.

I don’t know if it was an adapter issue, or something else. Thoughts?

I have a black awd lux 3 right now. Love the car blowing through my mileage. Dealer spoke to me about getting out early. Offered me a white premium luxury with moonroof like my lux 3 had. What am I giving up in stepping down? I find it so hard to figure that out in cadillac trim levels.

What you do it? And white vs black? I like the black. Looks sporty and real sharp. But shows everything, dirt, pollen, and scratches. Havent seen the white in person yet.

Havent worked numbers yet but dealer is thinking by stepping down trim might be able to keep payments the same.

Thoughts??

Anyone else a little disappointed with door storage pocket? Drove an Audi Q7 for 6-7 years which had door packets large enough for an iPad. Was time to move on to Q8, but decided go with a Lyriq because I really wanted the EV experince. Lyriq does not disappoint in many areas. It’s a great ride. The one area where I’m a little disappointed is the door pocket storage. Not enough space for an iPad. Have to use the area under the center console which is not ideal for grab and go.

My understanding is that GM pushed 2 year leases for the 2024 model because the residual is higher and it resulted in lower lease payments

Is this true ?

Because this would mean there should be a lot of inventory coming online for the next 3-6 months

When did you get your lease?

And are you turning in your car ?

Lastly, if given that the residuals are way higher than market value, would GM work out a deal with leasees to let you buy the car out at market value or would the payoff only be based on the residual ?

Rear ended someone at a stop light and my grill is all cracked. I’m just starting the insurance process but anyone have a current idea on lead times for the part, i know they have been prioritizing new builds so repair parts have been slow to get.

Hi I have a AWD sport 1. I get really low miles/kWh on highway when cruising at 73 miles per hour.

Max I can get on a long trip: 2.3 miles per kwh!!

Start of trip is always even lower.. closer to 2.1 miles per kwh.

This is in nice spring temperature... 70 Fahrenheit

I got the car this winter and I was getting 1.7 miles per kwh.

Is my car ok? Should I go to service? I have low hope in my Cadillac dealer finding anything.. they always say that everything is normal..

This make my highway range 2.3... more 2.2 miles per kwh average x 100 kw battery 220 miles max! And 80% on fast charge equal to 176 miles average.

Is this normal?? Are you getting better range on highway speed on cruise??

My previous small battery rwd mach e was getting closer to 3.0 miles per kwh on highway. I changed it to get more range on highway...

I like the car but the highway performance is the worse aspect for me...

I'm thinking of looking at 2024 used lyriq luxury trim 2 (because I want super cruise).

The lowest I saw it was $32k and another for $34k. Everything else is 37k+.

I was originally going for the mach e but now I've seen the mach e 2023 trim get up to 30-35k+ as well so if a lyriq is going to be a similar price, I think I'd go with the lyriq.

I'm thinking of waiting for the next 3 months for more supply to come on as the 2 year leases from 2024 start to expire and people turn their cars in.

I'm hoping that as more supply comes online during the summer and end of summer that prices can get down to $30k.

GEMINI says there should be this amount of volume

1. Anticipated 3-Month Lease Return Volumes

• Ford Mustang Mach-E: Across the United States, an estimated 12,000 to 15,000 Mustang Mach-Es are expected to be turned in at lease maturity over the next 90 days. Ford was incredibly aggressive with subsidized lease rates and lease cash throughout the spring and summer of 2023 and 2024 to clear bloated inventory, and those vehicles are now flooding back to dealerships.
• Cadillac LYRIQ: An estimated 5,000 to 7,500 Cadillac LYRIQs are projected to be returned nationally over the next 3 months. While the LYRIQ had a slower initial production ramp-up than the Ford, GM heavily pushed 24-month lease structures starting in early-to-mid 2024 to circumvent sourcing restrictions on the clean vehicle tax credit, meaning those initial 2-year lease terms are maturing right now.

What are your thoughts?

Do you agree with this analysis?

I'm in SoCal.

Plugged in an OBD2 sensor with Car Scanner Pro, but a little intimidated by all the numbers. The high voltage battery SOH is blank for the Lyriq. Is there another number to look at for gauging battery degradation? I'm looking at used Lyriqs and curious what I else I should look for.

Hey Fellow Lyriq owners

New owner - advice needed re: charging accounts

I found the exact trim/version I was looking for but it’s a thousand miles away so my wife is going to fly out and pick it up. Its a new 2026.

I would like advice on the easiest setup/apps/tips for charging on the way home.

Several questions:

— She gets flummoxed with too much phone app shenanigans - is there an App from cadillac that we can set up before hand that will allow her to easily charge essentially anywhere? We are in the Midwest if that matters.

— I know we will need to set up a Tesla account and have a NACS—>CCS adapter to use the superchargers. What other accounts can I set up in advance?

Im already looking into abetterroutplanner - any other app suggestions?

Thanks in advance for help
