Since I only average around 6K miles per year, I change the oil and filter once per year using Mobil1 5W-30. The next oil change is due this month.\r\nThe life of a clutch depends so much on how it is treated as well as the mileage, so it is hard to say how much of its life is used. The clutch was replaced in 2017 at around 37K miles by a Monster triple disc clutch as the original clutch began slipping a bit due to the increased power after I had the car tuned. I learned to drive on a 1957 Ford with a clutch back in the 1960\u2019s and do not abuse it. It feels the same as when I had it installed and with only 40K miles on the clutch it should last quite a bit longer.

I would like to introduce myself; my name is Steve and this listing is for my 2012 Cadillac CTS-V coupe in sparkling black diamond with saffron/black interior. I am the original owner and have scrupulously maintained it, doing my own maintenance after the warranty period expired. My Cadillac CTS-V runs and drives excellent and is in virtually perfect condition and has been garaged since new. The engine modifications and the Complete Street mods were tuned relatively conservative for very safe street use. I also have all the original parts removed for the mods. \r\nI believe that whoever gets the car is going to love it. I looked into the production numbers of these cars and in 2012, 133 black diamond manual cars were made. This car was one of 58 manuals built with this color with the saffron interior.\r\nI\u2019ll be monitoring the auction as it continues through the week.
