2000 Cadillac STS: Engine starts but will quit almost immediately. Sometimes will start and run, but then stalls out after moving about 20 to 50 feet in gear. The vehicle had this same problem at this time last year and then the problem just disappeared and ran perfectly fine. No check engine light comes on. Could this have anything to do with the seasons? It's just starting to get cool again in this part of the country.

2005 Cadillac STS 4.6 won't start

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.

2005 Caddy V8 sts no longer remote cranks. lights

I had the same problem with my STS. Go back through your programing menu and "check" remote start again. Somehow, mine defaulted to not allowing remote start feature. It was good to go as soon as I re-programmed it.
