2005 Cadillac STS 4.6 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Hello. Your car might have a 'cracked' vacuum hose that goes to the fuel pressure regulator. If that's the case, the engine will 'flood' and won't start. It can also be the fuel pressure regulator itself. One more thing: if the torque converter is malfunctioning, that will stop the engine as soon as it is put in any drive gear. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

Should be on the passenger side underneath in front of the tire.

if it leaked once it will leak again. pick up a can of Super Seal and some more refrigerant, follow the instructions CAREFULLY to avoid damaging the system. if it is still leaking after that, some components in your A/C system may need replaced. I would recommend getting at least one can of refrigerant with UV dye in it to put in after the super seal, it will make it easier to find the leak if the sealer doesn't fix it.

Not likely.... But as you just put fuel injector in make sure your fuel cap is tight cause if its not the computer will detect a evaporation leak in the gas tank. So tighten the gas cap and drive the car for a few days & see if the engine light goes off .. If not get the computer scanner to see what's going on

Hello. It seems either the torque converter and/or transmission pump is at fault. Either one will cause the transmission to become inoperable. It seems the 'transmission pump' is more at fault than the torque converter. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

Do you mean the pulldown is not working, or the trunk lid latch is not connecting to the pulldown assembly when you try to close the trunk? This latter case typically happens when someone slams the trunk lid down several times not realizing there is a pulldown system and thinking slamming it will make it close (this often breaks something). Check the latch on the trunk lid - if it's in the closed position, use the key to try to move it to the open position and try gently closing the lid again. If not, there is also a switch on the pulldown assembly that starts the pulldown motor when it is depressed by the closing trunk lid - you can also check this to make sure it's working. Otherwise, either the latch or the pulldown assembly has been bent/broken.

The fuel sending unit in the gas tank is bad and you will need to replace it by dropping the tank down and pulling the fuel pump housing out as it is mounted on the side of the assembly. Run the tank low as possible if you pull the tank off and there is a inspection cap on top and you can remove the assembly after disconnecting the fuel lines and wires on top of the tank. Hope this helps.
