#383 of 436 Electrical problem by dmp3 May 09, 2006 (7:35 am)
I own a '99 Cadillac Deville and when I start my car, the power immediately goes out on everything. I try to start it again and it's dead as a doornail. I give it a few minutes and it starts up. I was driving into work and all of a sudden the car dies - no power. While waiting for AAA to arrive, I hear my antenna going down and was able to start my car. The time lapse was about 15 minutes. Any idea what could be wrong??

Replying to: wfeindt (May 07, 2006 8:33 am) The early 80's Eldo's had the stainless steel roof, but I've never heard of a whole car made out of it from Caddy.
#385 of 436 Re: Coolant Leak 2003 CTS / Oil Cooler Seals [riskybusiness] by scott1121 May 11, 2006 (1:54 pm)
Replying to: riskybusiness (Oct 05, 2005 11:33 am) I have the same vehicle and just had my head gasket blow. I was sitting idle in traffic and all of a sudden the bells started going off and the computer screen said "Engine Overheating - Idle Engine". I put the vehicle in neutral and just as I did the bells when off again and this time the screen said "Low Coolant - Engine Overheating - Stop Engine". I immediately put the car in a parking space 6 feet away and turned off the engine. When I did, I heard a bubbling sound in the coolant reserve tank. I got out and on the ground was a huge puddle of milk-chocolate colored, milkshake thickness fluid. After towing to the shop, the initial diagnosis is blown head gasket - external failure. It just turned 100k miles last week and had all the service done as required on a 2003 CTS. Cadillac is refusing to help so far saying that since I have over 100k miles it's out of their abilty to assist, I have 101k miles not - come on guys. I'm going to have it towed to a Cadillac Dealer and have them tear it down and do a full diagnosis.
#387 of 436 07 Escalade - 22" Wheel/Tire not available? by auto007 May 12, 2006 (1:37 pm)
Hi, Anyone have any ideas where to get 1 factory 22" Escalade 07 FACTORY wheel/tire? It appears according to my local dealer this is a special order item that takes 2 days to get updated on availablity that could be months? It's hard to believe this and any insight on how to obtain it faster would be great! Thanks Replies to this message: bwnunnally (Jun 03, 2006 4:41 pm)

Replying to: monkeyman3 (Nov 26, 2003 8:34 pm) Look under your dash, there should be a small handle just exposed beyond the driver kick panel. If may be sticky if its never been used. Sometimes, I have found my brake will stick, try cycling the tranny between park and drive a few times.
