I have a oil leak in my Cadillac 2007 DTS. It drops "1%" oil life according to the dash appx every week. Jiffy Lube mechanics told me it needs immediate attention but they don't fix leaks. I didn't want to spend dealer price of labor to fix something that was simple enough to get done by a "good" mechanic. Is an oil leak and power steering leak a very detailed repair job for my car that I shouldn't let anyone but a Cadillac expert attempt to repair? It's usually twice the price to get work done at the dealer mainetenance.

Got an older car? Find an older mechanic...Someone who remembers there is an engine under the hood, not just electronics.
Typically you have nearly a one quart "leeway" on overfill. Depending upon where the leak is, you could try using an engine sealer/conditioner like the one made by Lucas...I've used it and it's pretty good. Remember though...It took a long time to develop a leak, it will take some time to soften the leaking seal and slow or stop the leak. And...there isn't a chemical in the world that will replace a failed part.

It would most likely need a new evaporator or condenser. Mike. Rate 100% please.

SOURCE: instuctions how to replace #1 main bearing ht4100

there are a few things to consider first,1. is it the bearing alone worn? you have to check the condition of the crank shaft jurnel were the bearing works,if ok then you are good togo but if not then you are looking at either machine shop work on the shaft or replacing it with a used unit in good condition since cost is a factor, or you can take the chance and put up the bearing as is and hope for the best,to save time and if you'r up to it look for a used engine in good condition and swap the hole assembly out should take a week end with some help from the guys, any way if you insist. 1. you drop the sump, find the # 1 main bearing cap # should be stamped on it re move the two bolts and remove cap,take note of mounting, remove bearing halfs, to remove bearing half on block use a flat head screw driver and push it around the jurnel there should be mounting tabs on bearing to install take the bearing half for the block place oil on inner face and slide int place making shore tab fits in mounting goove install cap half bearing and install tourque bolts re install sump refill engine oil and hop for the best
