SOURCE: Burning rubber smell inside car-2003 CTS Cadillac

Diagnosing this will be subject to a process of elimination. It could be the radio, blower motor or any other accessory particularly ones with moving parts; Try switching those off and try to note when this problem occurs and what is on/whatyou are doing. Something is getting hot causing the smell so it will be a situation where the accessory will have to run a while before doing it. It is a possibility that there is an electical curcuit overheating, but less likely. Lets rule out accessories first and give us an update. GL

SOURCE: Replace 2005 Cadillac CTS water pump

drain the coolant.remove belt by rotating belt tensioner cllockwise. water pump pulley will require a holding tool to keep it from turning while removing bolts. access to air ratchet can sometimes eliminate the need to hold but be careful cause thats a good way to skin some knuckles. also make installation more difficult to obtain proper torque. after pulley is off just a few water pupm mounting bolts remain. clean and dry gasket surface very well before reinstalling.

2005 Cadillac cts , replaced throttle body and position sensor and replaced accelerator sensor, throttle doesn't respond properly and nothing in reverse, how do I reset without a scanner.?

How to Relearn the ETC (electronic Throttle Control)
If the battery is disconnected, the electronic throttle control (ETC) may forget the zero throttle position too. If you find that your CTS runs poorly, you will have to have the re-learn the position.

To do this,
Turn the key to the run position with the engine off for at least three minutes.Then turn the key to the off position.Start the engine and let it idle for 30 seconds.Turn the engine off and restart. The learning process should be complete.
I found this process on the website cadillacfaq.com

I have a 2003 Cadillac cts getting codes p1795 p1780 p1779 p2176 what can be possible problems to fix them?

code p 2176 refers to throttle actuator control(TAC) system--idle position not learned ===causes basic setting not carried out
code p 1795 is CAN bus--throttle body position
code p 1780 is park/neutral position (PNP) switch circuit engine torque signal circuit
code p 1779 is engine torque delivered to TCM signal
go google and type in cadillac fault codes and find a site that has all the codes listed

2003 Cadillac CTS shakes when started, idle and in park. Acts like it wants to give out but drives smooth when given gas.. It shut off on me once while driving but I was braking and trying go accelerate.....

Check the vacuum hose to the brake booster. The booster is on the drivers side. Behind the brake master cylinder. Big round and black. Mounted on the fire wall. One hose going to it from the engine. If the hose is broken, replace it. If it is good, look at replacing the brake booster. It has a diaphragm in it that can leak. This is a vacuum leak and will cause what you have explained. Brake boosters aren't cheap. Try a junk/salvage yard first. They don't go bad that often.

When changing the tps in a 2003 cadillac cts do I have to change the whole throttle body or can I just replace the throttle control sensor?

Yes but i dont think thats your problum. i bet you its just the contacts that plug in the throttle body. they dont fit well it happends alot with the 2003 cts you can fix it by un pluging it putting a dent in the back of all 6 contacts. i used a dart tip to do it. then usr some cleener on them you should be good.
