I bought this 2003 cts without warranty just under 2 months ago. I seen the car fax and it was always serviced at cadillac and was very well taken care of, its just about mint with 150k miles.
Anyway today.. I noticed i was trailing white smoke, i stopped right away and shut off the engine. The white smoke came from under the hood. What i guess is oil is all over the very bottom part of the front of the engine. The oil just poured out like blood from a head wound with the car off. It seemed like it sprayed everywhere at the bottom with force.
I tried to look to see where this came from and looking at the front of the engine, its like i see nothing on the engine.. Like the oil sprayed out from under and went forward.
I had to move the car a little forward which is probably dumb.. But the engine started and sounded fine.. As i moved the car several feet i lacked power.. The engine rpms went up without the car speeding up like it should. I did pull over right away, and theengine sounded good.. Just the oil fell out.
Seemed mainly on the driverside.. My tire driver side tire had oil on it.. Under the car is where oil was all over the bottom. Looking at the engine from underside seemed clean.. Like it leaked from something under the car next to the engine and sprayed forward.
Im afaid tomorrow when i have it told they will say my engine is finished. Any idea what happened.. Maybe a seal.. Can it be fixed..
