I have a 2000 DeVille. When making a right hand turn, I hear a knock when turning the wheel. I checked the TSB board and the problem was posted there so someone else has had this problem as well. I've had two Front End experts look at the car to no avail. Does anyone know a remedy for this? (also posted on Sedans Message Board)

Hi, I have a 1998 Deville NorthStar and once in a while its tends to make a knock sound on right hand turns. Its not a real bad sound but Im just wondering what it could be and if it could get worse? Did you find anything out? Also I was having problems on start up. Sometimes in the morning on a cold start it pops right off, other times it has to roll over several times. I had the fuel rail and fuel line replaced at the dealer and it seemed to help, but it still does it, just not as much. Please get back to me.

My 99 Deville had a similar problem under the front end. Under warranty; dealer said replaced hose, and I think there was a recall about it.

I have a 1995 Concours. I have close to same problem. Was wondering if you could put normal struts on instead of cadillac struts. Price comparison $900 each for cadillac compared to $350 each for normal

2004 Deville Gets Pitiful Milage And Seats Are Like Bricks

Wondering if others are having this problem. I have an '01 Deville that gets GREAT milage, and is comfortable to sit in. I bought a new 2004 DHS that has seats hard as bricks, and the milage is absolutely horrible. Dealer says milage will improve around 6000 miles which sounds like hogwash to me (unless the cyl walls need the time to ream out ha). No fixes for the seats, but anyone know what's wrong with the milage? I'm wondering if the transmission has something to do with it. Thanks much.

Well I thought they solved this problem in 2000. I had a 1999 Deville that was a terrific car except!!! The seats would put your legs to sleep. The bolstering be hind the knees was very hard. Both front seats had the problem. Dealer could not help. Sold it, in the first 6 months. Bought a new Volvo S-80, T-6 Super car and super comfort. Poorest service I have ever encountered. Details are to numerous to list. There were no manuals on this car so I sold it and went back to my old stand by a T & C Van. Fourth one since 1984. Rides like a dream and no problems. It 34 months and 54,000 miles still have lots of tread on the tires and the break pads have about half their lining left. Pulled the wheels and checked them.

I own a "98 Concourse Deville, on three occassions I recieved a notice from my local dealer that it is due for service. Within three weeks, wierd things started going wrong with the car. Alerts and warnings about unrelated system failures started occurring, even the antenna suddenly failed to function. This is the third time this has happened after the dealer's notice. Has anyone else experienced this?

I also have a '98 Deville and I have been recently getting the message "Top Speed - Fuel off" and the engine cuts out. I had it at a dealership in another town since it happened on a trip. Dealer sent it to a local garage. They did the diagnostics and found the the "Throttle speed sensor" had tripped five different times. It tested perfectly, so they cleaned up and leads and I paid them and took my car back for a 300 mile drive home. First the cruise control quit functioning (and anybody who has a solution to this, please write) then that old message started popping up every time I hit 77 or 78 "Top speed - Fuel off" and the engine would cut out, then restart itself a few seconds later. I don't have an owners manual so I cna't look it up. Any advice???
Thanks,
Dr. Tom Cotter
