I told him I was going to post a favorable review on here, and he sounded very appreciative of that.

Maybe you'll get a free oil change coupon out of the deal.

The left mirror was distorted a little, and my power lock switch broke. Keith, the service writer, also said he would give the car a "once over."

I also wanted a transmission service, and differential fluid change. I didnt even have to point out the friction modifier for my limited slip diff, he brought it up before I could even mention it.

They did all the above. And went beyond. They replaced the torque converter, the diff pinion seals, (and something else I cannot recall.) They also discounted the transmission service price because some of it was changed with the TC under warranty.

They gave me a DTS as a loaner (nice car ) and treated me like a VIP. I was also chatting with Keith about my CTS-V. He was very knowledgeable about the car. He was telling me about the TSBs out on the car (all of which I knew already, but kudos to him for bringing it up in the first place) and when I told him about the diff whine, and me possibly wanting to get the diff fluid changed, he said he could probably get it taken care of under warranty.

All in all, the best dealer experience of my life (and I have had ALOT of them over the years )

Anyone in the NW suburbs needing a Caddy dealer, you have to go to these guys. Top-notch.

BTW, I tried finding the dealer reviews section here, and I cannot seem to find it.
Hey I think you asked me about that surge. I was thinking about your V not an auto for some reason.

I was very tired and fell asleep in the car before we were out of town.

Whatever they did, it was worth it. My fuel economy has improved from 23 to 25 mpg since they serviced it.

Re: Motorwerks Cadillac, Barrington IL

Too bad they are a little out of the way for me. Sounds like a great place.

Re: Motorwerks Cadillac, Barrington IL

Thanks, this is good info.
I am a bit closer to Weil and I had one service experience there (good), but I also travel in the barrington area fairly often.
