Hey everyone!

I have a couple of questions regarding the factory stereo in my Escalade. I would like to upgrade some things (maybe) and wanted to get a better idea of what would be the best course of action.

First of all, does the factory head unit have preamp outputs that can be used to drive an aftermarket sub and amp? I would like to put a different subwoofer in the Escalade, since I have one lying unused in storage. I have doubts that the factory unit does have the preamp outs because of the Bose premium system. Maybe I am wrong, though. My Escalade has the navigation system but it is not the touchscreen model. I also have the 6 disc changer.

I have also considered replacing the head completely, in favor of a more feature-filled Pioneer AVIC F700BT (with the newest software, of course). I love the idea of voice controlled iPod functionality and the enhanced navigation and Bluetooth options. I would need to purchase the harness that is supposed to retain the door chimes, OnStar functionality, and the use of the Bose system, but it seems like it may be worthwhile.

My second question, going along with the AVIC head, is about the disc changer. How does the factory changer work with the factory head unit? Pioneer makes a 6 disc changer that works with the F700BT and looks as though it would fit right where the current one is. It is, unfortunately, quite pricey. I do love having six CDs loaded up so it would be a future upgrade to consider. If, however, the factory changer could interface with the F700BT (though it seems like a long shot) I would be quite thrilled. The Pioneer model is the XDV-P6.

Thanks in advance for any information, suggestions, or tips! ]]> Cadillac Escalade, EXT and ESV Forum - 1999 - 2006 LarryKingsShoes http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/cadillac-escalade-ext-esv-forum-1999/185305-2005-escalade-head-unit-disc-changer.html http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/cadillac-escalade-ext-esv-forum-1999/185301-can-someone-decode-options-please.html Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:02:16 GMT 02 Escalade 2wd what is the code for trailer towing?

The dealer guy says on the 06 Escalade at 60K+ miles the hoses now need to be replaced and at $475. Seems high to me. I already paid them to do a flush before so that wont be necessary. Not sure if the hoses are truly ready or not? Nothing is obvious.

Good year says they dont make a Hi-Miler hose set for it.
I was looking for longer life or silicone hoses for it and change part or all of them myself. I am skilled enough to change out hoses, radiator etc.

The labor question I have is what is the deal w/ those crimp looking connections on the heater hoses back by the firewall? And where do the metal lines go from there - the ones that look like a/c lines tee'ing off from the htr hose?
Are they hairy to deal with? Should I cut the htr house and just couple in new hose to the front?

Is the 45 degree T up front below and over from the reservoir reuseable?

If I go w/ 'normal' or silicone hoses, Where can I buy hoses and not go broke?

One more Q: Is there any kind of pressure relief valve to loosen or remove when releasing / replacing coolant? ]]> Cadillac Escalade, EXT and ESV Forum - 1999 - 2006 bonson http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/cadillac-escalade-ext-esv-forum-1999/185083-radiator-coolant-heater-hoses-help.html http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/cadillac-escalade-ext-esv-forum-1999/185040-corsa-exhaust-cheap.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:33:10 GMT Any info on the cheapest place to buy corsa exhaust?

It has almost 80k miles on it. I LOVE the room but for some reason, I'm really nervous about it. Maybe because it's such a big vehicle. The speaker covers on the door are a little dirty, the sun room doesn't seem to vent up..it'll just open all the way, and one of the front console's lid doesn't stay shut. There is a small slice in the material on the right side back door which concerns me. It there a way to fix it or to prevent it from opening more or is it a deal breaker? These are all pretty cosmetic. My father who is mechanic, looked the engine over and said that it looks pretty good.

So, would you buy it?

Mostly highway driving and I rotate every other oil change. I have GoodYear on them now and just hit 50,000 miles and they are worn to the point I need new ones. Also the GoodYears were pretty bad with road noise.

Any suggestions would be helpful

anyone know anything that may help?

the ceck engine light is on now. i unhooked the battery for a while to see if it would come on again and as soon as i hook the battery up and turn the key on the light comes back on. so that should tell me its a hard fault and not just bad gas or something. and also it wont connect to the scanner so theres a problem somewhere.

I was wondering if you can help me out a bit. Since you guys are all owners of the Escalade, I wanted some of your input before I base my decision to purchase. A gentleman on Craigslist is selling a 2002 Escalade, Pearl White, w/ 62K miles on it. It is a 2WD with a 5.3 liter engine. Here are some facts that kind of make me second guess on purchasing.

- I will be 4th owner. 2nd owner leased the vehicle.
- Rims are very nice. They are 22's, but they are in need of replacment. Last time they were replaced was back in 2004. Stock tires are not included with vehicle.
-Back roof brake light is out. Needs replaced/ repaired.

Other than that, the Escalade is very nice and looks awesome. Blue book values this vehicle 15,200 under "good" condition. What do you guys think? Any problems with 02 Escalades with 5.3 engine? I appreciate any feedback from you guys. Thanks guys!

I'm not sure if it's because the key isn't programmed right, but when using the different fobs, it doesn't go to the other settings. Like the seat doesn't move forward when my short wife goes to drive it, she has to push the "2" button on the door.
I also wish it had the rainsense wipers! Adjusting the wiper speed manually is just too hard for me! :histeric: But the rainsense is nice! :)
And when starting it, I'm so used to starting my STS by a quick turn of the key, instead of having to hold it down with the Escalade. WTF? I thought all newer vehicles had that?
The auto volume control also seems to reduce the volume too much when you come to a stop. I'm sure there's no way to adjust it.
Other than these little quirks I really like my Escalade. ]]> Cadillac Escalade, EXT and ESV Forum - 1999 - 2006 caddydaddy http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/cadillac-escalade-ext-esv-forum-1999/184284-observations-owning-2005-a.html http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/cadillac-escalade-ext-esv-forum-1999/184269-wheel-balancing-22s.html Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:45:26 GMT I am in the Laurel, MD area and having difficulty finding a garage able to handle balancing of 22's on my '05 EXT.

I just bought a 05 ESV 6.0. It has 100k on it. MINT MINT condition inside and out, like new. I bought it about 2 weeks ago and earlier this week I put on my winters. I never noticed it at the begining but when im driving and my foot is on the gas the engine seems to be louder then before not sure if its the tires but when I let go of the gas even at like 120km/h its very quiet its when I touch the gas the engine seems to be louder then usual.

While driving I can put it in nuteral and touch the gas and its very quiet. Im not sure if it could be the transmission or not struggeling? So I dont know what the problem is, can anyone help?

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

I have had my 05 Escalade since Feb, no problems.

In May I put some 24 inch rims and tires on it. Everything fine. Last week I put the OEM tires back on for the winter. Well the next day I went out of town (80 miles round trip) and on the way home my oil pressure dropped to zero.

The next day I started it up and the oil pressure was fine so I took it to the Cadillac dealership. Everything seemed to be fine. They couldn't find anything wrong with anything. I had them change the oil since I almost due for one.

Haven't had the oil pressure drop since but it still worries the crap out of me. Does seem to run just littler higher now but maybe that is because I am watching it all the time now.

I seem to recall them having to recalibrate computer when putting 24's on but then when I had OEM's put back on they said it didn't need recalibrated. I told them I thought they did when the 24's were put on. I'm pretty sure I did.

Now the dumbest question ever (take it easy on me lol), would the computer not being recalibrated (if indeed I did have it done when 24's were put on) have anything to do with the gauges? Or was it just a coincidence?

cold weather be attributing to the problem? It was very cold the night the OP dropped, hasn't been near that cold since. Just your normal 45-55 degree Maryland fall weather.

I usually don't drive it except around town so maybe it was an issue before but didn't notice until I drove it longer?

I'm just lost here and not sure I trust the dealership now ]]> Cadillac Escalade, EXT and ESV Forum - 1999 - 2006 york10176 http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/cadillac-escalade-ext-esv-forum-1999/183543-oil-pressure.html http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/cadillac-escalade-ext-esv-forum-1999/183514-roof-rack-cap.html Wed, 28 Oct 2009 23:08:04 GMT I am missing the front passenger side roof rack cap and cant find it online.

I have a 7" touch screen nav display, I put in a 15" flip down, and I'm going to replace the stock rear seat radio controls with a 7" monitor, so replacing the CD changer with a monitor might be a little overkill.

I'm not too fond of the idea of just sticking a universal pocket right there, because 1. There already is a pocket right above the CD changer and 2. Everything else is trimmed in woodgrain. A universal pocket wouldn't match with everything else in my opinion.

AVIC FEEDS iPhone App Demo Video on YouTube

Pioneer Electronics has recently released its first iPhone® application, AVIC FEEDS App. The app was created for Pioneer's new AVIC-U310BT and AVIC-Z110BT in-dash navigation systems. Pioneer's AVIC FEEDS App allows iPhone owners to find points of interest (POI) or search for destinations ahead of time on their phone and easily upload them via Bluetooth® to their Pioneer navigation systems. You no longer have to manually enter address information into your Pioneer unit.

Ways to Navigate:
- POI Search - Points of interest searched through Pioneer's AVIC FEEDS App can be selected by simply choosing the pin drop of the desired location
- Take a Photo - Photos taken on an iPhone that are geotagged with geographical metadata such as location coordinates can be saved for future use as a POI
- Saved Photos - Geotagged photos sent to users or photos from the internet can be used as POIs

AVIC-U310BT and AVIC-Z110BT owners can download the Pioneer AVIC FEEDS App for FREE from their iPhone or from the iTunes store.

Went in today to talk to the shop owner about some questions I had with the transmission overhaul on my truck about 9 months ago. I asked him when the fluid should be changed, and he suggested 24-30 months. I asked him what type, Dextrom VI?? And he replied no, Dextron III.
I could swear I read on here somewhere that GM now mandates dectrom VI for tranny and still Dextron III for transfer case.
I explained this to him, and he said that he was "unaware" of that change, and that he thought it was only vehicles built after 2006 that called for Dextron VI. Sounded like a bull story to me, but before I really put my foot in my mouth, what is the "TRUTH"?
Is there an actual bulletin that I can print and present to him??
Please let me know.
THANKS

We put it all back together and all was well for 3 weeks. We only replaced the ABS valve assembly and not the computer module controller.

The issue I have now is when I start to drive, the ABS runs a system test. Normally you hear the ABS motor run for about a second and go off. Now the ABS turns on and off six times, each time running for about four seconds. After the sixth test cycle the Service Stability system comes on, and I have no ABS brakes.

Has any one experienced this? I have blead the complete system, and no air at all. For some reason the ABS pump is not passing the start up test.

Any help would be appreciated.
