#112 of 363 cadigirl by cadigirl Sep 14, 2005 (10:06 am)
I purchased an '05 CTS in early July and have had to have the catalytic converter replaced 2 weeks after purchase due to the check engine soon light coming on. Two weeks after that, I had to have the shift differential replaced and am now having to have it replaced a second time due to grinding noises when backing up and make turns. Has anyone else out there experienced anything like this with an '05 CTS? Sounds to me like I have a lemon. I would appreciate any comments.

Replying to: cadigirl (Sep 14, 2005 10:06 am) I'd get rid of it. Sounds like similar trouble I've had. I purchased a Chevy Impala LS facory ordered and fully loaded and it's been a lemon ever since. It's been back and forth to the dealer on numerous occasions under GM warranty repairs and I've taken it back two times under my extended warranty! Had I known it before, you can take your new car back to the dealer and trade it for another one, but there's a time limit. Check the lemon law rules in your state. Cadillac repairs cost way too much to chance having to make on your own once your warranties are up. I'm getting ready to purchase a new CTS, but I plan to get the 06 model because I was told that I shouldn't buy a first year car. Anyway, good luck with your car.
#117 of 363 05 CTS Tire Noise by temj12 Oct 19, 2005 (8:13 pm)
I have an 05 CTS with 13,000 miles on it. It is my wife's car. I drove it last night for the first time in a long time and it has this low roaring sound which has to be the tires. They are Goodyear tires. They are not running out of alignment. Has anyone had this? The car runs quiet and the sound is very annoying. Replies to this message: kirstie_h (Oct 20, 2005 4:56 am)

Replying to: temj12 (Oct 19, 2005 8:13 pm) Hi temj12, Since this discussion focuses on pricing, please re-post your question in our regular Cadillac CTS topic, where other owners hang out. Since it doesn't seem to be a vehicle-specific question, you might actually have better luck in our Tires, tires, tires discussion.   kirstie_h Roving Host Host, Future Vehicles & Smart Shopper discussions
#119 of 363 Just got a 2003 CTS! by jeepem Jan 19, 2006 (4:46 pm)
Hello to all,   I just got a 2003 CTS, dark blue, moonroof, bose speakers, certified car, i think it had both the luxury and sport upgrades. It has the wood on the steering wheel and shifter, if that matters. 45K miles, but like I said, good for 100K. The only thing missing was the nav. Got it for just under $20,000, plus TTL.   I think I did good. What do you think? Replies to this message: allargon (Feb 19, 2006 1:24 pm)

Replying to: jeepem (Jan 19, 2006 4:46 pm) I think you did very well. Last May, I looked at several certified cars (this was pre employee discount, pre new value pricing) and nearly bought a 2003 CTS for $26K w/ nearly 30K miles on it. I think you should make sure that it has all the recall work done on it, but that's a discussion for another forum.
#121 of 363 03 CTS by herc76 Apr 02, 2006 (4:23 pm)
I was looking at a 03 CTS and it is priced on-line at $22,770 and it has only 23,988 miles on it. It has the (I beleive) the Bose speakers, it is two-toned black and gray, and is the wood package. I am trading in a 02 TL (72,466 miles) and was appraised by both Carmax and another dealership. Carmax was willing to give me $11000 and the dealership where the CTS is located will give me $12000. I was only able to get them down to $22,200 and after that they wouldn't budge a bit. Do anyone think this a good deal?
