I have an 85 Eldorado here in Houston,TX I’ve been putting work into the past couple years, next gas tank, transmission, brakes, water pump etc. And can’t keep the car running without running hot and falling dead. Idk what’s wrong with it and don’t have anyone to look at it that knows what there...

So I searched and could not find the answer to this problem. My service engine soon light came on and my car could not switch my fans into high speed, so my car could not cool off. I would get to 230 and it would stay there. I took it to the mechanic today and he found that the main 30a fuse...

Thanks in advance for reading this. I bought a 98 Deville 3 months ago w/ 125K miles. The only issue was a leaky radiator which I replaced. The issue now is that most of the time the temp runs 196 - 217, but once in a while it will get up to 240+ before it cools back down. Later I found out the...

Well my lady was driving it yesterday and she said "i thought you fixed the air?, i thought you got it running right??" turns out the ac i charged the day before quit working, and the car was REAL sluggish on take off. once going not so bad. it used a bunch of fuel for an hour trip. i got...

While driving on the freeway about 70mph, the lower engine shroud on my CTS came unbolted and the airflow pushed it down into the pavement and got half ground to pieces. Being away on vacation, we had to drive up onto a curb to get under the car and take off the last 3 bolts that were still...

So I figured I would share my crappy week with everyone. My check engine light came on and my mechanic said it was something that had to go to the dealer. I take it there and both timing chains needed to be replaced due to stretching. This requires taking the motor out of the car...Sooo...One...

:ill:Anyone else experienced misfiring/no revs/starting then cutting out? My 06 BLS 1.9D has started to act up every once in a while and I can't find anyone prepared to look at it. I'm in North east so nearest dealer I know of is Bauer Millet 150 miles away and SAAB up here have been helpful but...

Ok. I'm about 1000 miles into this rebuilt engine. Can anyone tell me why I would still be smoking? It smokes terribly when I downshift and anytime I am braking after exiting the interstate or after traveling at high speeds. 99 Seville STS. Here's what was done: Jakes head kit installed...

I live in an apartment, far from my family and family house. I do LOVE to spent some quality time with my car and have some small projects and repairs. But the main problem is I don't have a place! Indeed this is a common problem in large cities as far as I know. Street is not a good option at...

I am doing some research on installing a driver's side power window module. One web site said that it needs to be reflashed/reprogrammed. I called a Cadi dealer in town and they said yes they can do it for $100. I then called my local ASE mechanic who was a Cadi tech for 20 years up to 2008...

Okay, So in follow up to my earlier post about the slugfest that is my Brougham going up a hill....it's at the shop for a full tune up today. The mechanic took it for a drive up and down the escarpment access and said it was misfiring at lock-up, whatever that (lockup) means. I know I was...

I currently own a 05 Nissan Maxima loaded out with every option and I have been eyeballing a 05 black CTS with every option minus navigation. My Maxima has 60k miles on it and the CTS has 63k miles on it. My question is would anyone recommend trading into the CTS or keep the Maxima? My Maxima...

I am looking for a new and not rebuilt Steering box. Does anyone know where one might be able to find a brand new Steering box to a 1993 Fleetwood? Anyone with experience from rebuilt ones? As good as new?

2000 Deville DTS, getting "Service Suspension System" & "Speed Limited to 90mph" messages. DTC codes are RSS C0582, C0584, & C0662. Is this likely just a bad sensor, or something else? Any help would be appreciated.

my eldorado has 58,000 miles on it. My radiator recently blew the side tank off, never overheated etc. thermostat went bad. is it absolutely necessary to add the sealant tabs and the bar leak? because it was not done. And also does the hg have to be bad to have a leak? Can the intake manifold...

I just purchased a pre-owned 2010 SRX Premium. The XM radio and the NAV system are really hosed. I was wondering if anyone would mind pulling a CarFax for me. VIN = 3GYFNCEY8AS505185 Thanks for your help.

Hey guys, new member and 1st time post. I've had my Eldorado for about 6 years now and have had 0 issues until recently. I crank the AC up and nothing but warm air comes out. I thought I was low on R-134, so I had the system recharged. The mech. told me it wasn't that low on refrig, so he...
