Some Cadillac CTS owners report experiencing throttle hesitation, which is often attributed to a faulty MAP sensor. Symptoms of this issue include poor performance, rough idle, difficulty starting the vehicle, and hesitation during acceleration. To address this problem, many owners find that replacing the MAP sensor is an effective solution, and in some cases, cleaning the sensor can also alleviate the symptoms. Recognizing the signs of a defective MAP sensor early is crucial, as prompt action can prevent more significant repair costs down the line. Given the MAP sensor's vital role in maintaining proper fuel-air mixture ratios for efficient engine performance, diagnosing and replacing a faulty sensor can greatly enhance the vehicle's overall performance and longevity.
