Problem overview

Some Cadillac XT4 owners report experiencing intermittent starting issues characterized by a clicking noise, which may be attributed to several common causes. A weak battery is often cited as a leading reason for this problem, while corrosion on the battery terminals can also impede normal starting operations. Additionally, some owners have noted that poor electrical connections at the starter contribute to these clicking noises and starting difficulties. To address these concerns, it is advisable for owners to check the battery's condition, inspect for terminal corrosion, and ensure that the starter has a solid electrical connection, as these steps can help diagnose and potentially resolve the starting issues.
