1. Suspension
I had brakes put on my 00 STS last June and shortly after I got it back (last time I use that guy) the SSS message came across my dash. I asked him about it and he said the struts were probably going bad. Hard for me to imagine a 2 owner car with just over 60k on the clock needing struts. He also said the brake pad sensors were not hooked up when he did the brakes. I guess I didn't realize I had brake pad sensors back then but now I have the message "Check Brake Pads" coming across my dash. Has anyone encountered this before. Receiving a brake job then get a suspension code? Is this guy as stupid as I think he is? If the brake pad sensors wern't hooked up why am I getting this message? And why did it take 9 months to come on?
2. Electric Ride
Do all Cadillac's have this? Does mine? How do I tell? How do I tell if it is working? Could this be the suspension code? I do think the rear end sits a bit low and I didn't really notice it untill after my brake job which was before a 12 hour ride to S.C. with my family in the car. Could I have damaged it or maybe blown a fuse or module? How do I diagnose this? I was searching for answers in other post's but became frustrated, but did read about Cadillac's making starnge noises from under the dash and what not. On really cold mornings when I first start the car a strange noise comes from the drivers side under the dash kind of a rubbing sound, strange, and it does this 3-4-5 times then quits. Is this related to something?
3. BOSE
I love the bose system in my Cadillac. Much nicer than most custom stereos and tons better than the BOSE system I had in my 00 A4. Buuuuut I am now getting unwanted vibrations from the rear sub and the front door speakers. I've looked online but can't seem to find replacements. Where do you all shop? I can not go all summer with my stereo turned down.
Thanks for all help in advance.
