2005 cadillac srx install#
When I cross other SRX drivers, I just nod in sympathy, and they all seem to understand.To access the complex install instructions, please read the EULA Agreement below and check that you have read and understood the terms.

Repair costs have also been much higher, even though most parts are marked as made in Mexico. I have always been able to put over 250 thousand kilometers on each vehicle before trading them, but my SRX has required more repairs than all my others have had combined. I have owned a Volvo, Toyota, Subaru and before the SRX a Kia Sorento. As a world class luxury crossover I was expecting so much more. Large cargo area, the panoramic glass roof, the AWD, and I liked the looks and how it drove, but the problems started at 70,000k. I purchased my SRX based on its features that were perfect for my family. Short in wire cluster under front passenger seat. Tie rods and ball joints.Ĭhrome peeling off interior door handles. The brakes are undersized in performance for such a heavy vehicle.įront drivetrain rattling and clunking noises. Half the splash screens, bumper, under engine covers, wheels need to be removed first to access.
2005 cadillac srx Bluetooth#
By far, the best engine I drove until now.īut what I don't like about the car is the missing rain sensor, the missing Bluetooth connection, the missing AUX input on the radio.Īnd some ridiculous difficult-to-reach consumables like, tail light assembly, turning light bulbs, fog light bulbs, etc. I had a slight oil leakage, which was caused by a valve cover bolt that I didn't tighten enough. Good mileage tot the gallon (if you know how physics work).Įxtremely quiet, massive torque at low revs and even more massive up to 5000 rpm. An engineering marvel, extremely light, compact, and, if treated and maintained very well, a power plant to fall in love with. Seat comfort far better than any other car I drove (Audi Q7, BMW X5, MB GLK, Porsche Cayenne).Īnd the best about the car is the Northstar V8 LH2 engine. General Comments:Īn extremely comfortable car. The later models (2009>) had a BW4479-40/60% transfer case with better power division to the rear and front.

The transfer case for the AWD-train is the same as for the cars with the 3,6L V6 LY7 engine (BW4476-50/50%), resulting in stretched multi-drive chain because of the higher torque, with a clacking noise when accelerating from 0 with high power, as a result because the chain jumps over the sprockets. A timing chain failure could have been the consequence with major damage. The primary timing chain tensioner was extremely worn out. It was my own fault, because I had false air leakage in the intake manifold, resulting in lean mixture (hence: higher combustion temp) with burnt valves as a result.īUT, remember, almost all Northstar V8 LH2 with plastic intake manifold, will suffer somewhere in its lifespan from intake manifold bolts becoming stretched and loosen over time, with leakage as a result and numerous DTC-codes.Īnother EXTREME issue was discovered, during engine cylinder head overhaul. At normal engine operating temperature however, the compression was OK.

Since I drive it with LPG, the valves on cyl#1 RB were burnt and compression was lost during the warming-up phase. After 97k mi or 148k km I had to replace both cylinder heads.
