2005 Cadillac DeVille DTS Problems
Power Window Regulators May Fail and Cause the Window to Fall Into Door
One or more of the power window regulators (one in each door) may fail causing the window to fall into the door and not roll up.
Oil Leak From Lower Engine Area
The engine may develop an oil leak from the lower crankcase portion of the engine block. Our technicians tell us that the engine must be removed from the vehicle to properly repair this oil leak.
Service Stability Message Due to Failed Steering Wheel Position Sensor
The steering wheel position sensor may fail, resulting in the service stability message being displayed.
Improper HVAC Temperature and/or Air Delivery Due to Failed Mode Door Actuator
One or more heater & AC (HVAC) temperature and/or air delivery mode door actuator may fail, resulting in improper temperature or air delivery. If this occurs, fault code(s) should be stored in the HVAC control module which should assist in diagnoses.
Erratic Fuel Gauge Operation
It is common for the fuel level sensor in the fuel tank read the fuel level incorrectly. The sensor must be replaced to correct the condition. Our technicians recommend having the complete fuel pump module replaced on high mileage vehicles.
Coolant Leaks From Water Pump and Radiator
The water pump and/or the plastic side tanks on the radiator may leak causing a loss of coolant. The engine may overheat due to coolant loss. Continued coolant loss after external leaks have been repaired could indicate a blown head gasket.
Stalling Due to Failed Crankshaft Position Sensor
The crankshaft position sensor may fail causing the engine to stall intermittently, the Check Engine Light may or may not illuminate.
Check Engine Light Due to Gas Cap Issue
A Loose or worn gas cap may cause Check Engine Light to illuminate.
Misfire and/or Check Engine Light Due To Failed Ignition Coil
An ignition coil may fail causing one of the cylinders to misfire. Each of the two banks of cylinders has its own coil assembly. If one ignition coil fails the coil assembly for the corresponding cylinder bank must be replaced.
ABS Light Due to Control Module Failure
The anti-lock brake system (ABS) control module may fail causing the ABS light to illuminate. Failed modules should be replaced to restore ABS operation.
Check Engine Light Due to Engine Vacuum leak
The Check Engine Light may illuminate due to an engine vacuum leak from the intake manifold area.
Check Engine Light on Due to Faulty Catalytic Conveter
Failure of the catalytic converter can result in illumination of the Check Engine Light.
Transmission Fluid Leak From Cooler Line
An automatic transmission fluid leak may develop from the rubber section of a transmission cooler line. In some cases the rubber section of hose can be replaced. In others, the complete cooler line must be replaced to correct this type of leak.
Rough Idle Due to EGR Valve Sticking Open
The EGR valve may stick open, causing a rough idle and/or the Check Engine Light to illuminate.
Engine Overheating Due to Leaking Headgasket
Overheating of the engine may cause the cylinder head to expand, severely straining the head bolts and damaging the threads in the engine block. This commonly results in a blown head gasket. Our technicians tell us the engine block threads must be repaired before the cylinder head is reinstalled.
