Hello. I have been a member of this club for a long time and have learned many things from everyone about my 1998 Catera. Thanks to everyone for all the...
I got the 1/2 on it. First the dealer replaced the flow control valve and there appeared a much smaller leak about 3 steps back from the front of the bumper...
I have lately been getting little noise almost diesling kind of sound off and on (not all the time) when after driving around I am ready to park and the engine...
My 2000 Catera with 69000 miles has been at the dealer since May 11th waiting for a crankshaft position sensor. Two different Cadillac dealers have said GM...
Well, TC and ABS share a lot with each other. The CEL is probably also related. Do you know the codes? If I had to guess and assumed that all your symptoms are...
Mine sounded like a big rig when the rod bearings went. I hope that isn't your problem since you'll be swapping the motor. You should still be under warranty...
Well, it won't cover the oil cooler or the control arm bushings. Your HCV will be taken care of. Watch out for the small print where they exclude everything...
To save yourself some big dough...usually, from my past experiences - when the check engine light stays on the TC stops working as well. I hope this helps. I...
... It seems it could be the sound of the rods rattling on their bearings. That dieseling sound means that your bearings aren't getting enough lubrication. ...
Hey guys: I am going to be taking my '01 Catera to the dealer tomorrow to replace the break light swtich as I do not have any break lights. By reading and...

My brake lights went out on me as well, and the switch that failed was the one behind the brake pedal I believe. It was less than $300 lights for the brake...
You got raped. The switch from GM was only $28 and then laying on your back upside down in the drivers seat for a few minutes. ... From: Paul & Yvonne Madore ...
Hi, This is common. It happened to me on my 1999 Catera. It also happens on
other vehicles this is not just a Catera problem. Your ABS/Traction Control...
I had the exact problem with my 2000 Catera. The problem was a failed Electronic Brake/Traction Control Module ("EBTCM"). You can order one from a salvage...
I don't have an extended warranty on my 2001 Catera, so any repairs are done at an independent repair shop or the dealer (aka the "stealer"). I prefer to go...
Has anyone had an airbag light come and not go out? I am relatively new to this group but so far have gained much useful information here. Would appreciate any...
I've seen 2 ABS modules put in, in the last couple months. I didn't work on those cars but I know they had tc, abs and check engine lights along with a speedo...
If you have coolant dripping down both sides of the trans bell housing its your oil cooler cover. If your lucky you can just reseal the cover. IF your...
First thing we need are codes. It could be anything from a bad inflator module or air bag to a bad wire. ... From: "mrfixitman12" <mrfixitman12@...> To:...
I think they open up when you get over 4000 rpm so the air flows in better. At lower rpms longer runners provide more torque but hurt upper rpm air flow. I...
After reading all the recent post about minor Catera sensor or parts malfunctions I've noticed only a few are in the nature of a major engine, transmission or...
I don't know if dealers get paid less for warranty company repairs but every dealer I've gone to with an extended warranty has been very hostile and unwilling...
I had the same failure on my 2000, it is indeed the ABS module causing it, in my case the body seal failed and got moisture inside. the simptom is an ABS...
