I need to know the sequence and the tightening specification for the bolts of the cylinder heads for a 2009 Cadillac SRX 3.6 L engine. Thanks

You will need to refer to the Cadillac service manual for the exact sequence and specs. Generally, the torque specifications for the bolts range from 8-11 ft-lbs and should be tightened in the following order: (1) center bolts, (2) outer bolts, (3) inner bolts, (4) lower bolts.

Why is my 2002 Cadillac Escalade leaking oil and smells like it's burning when I'm driving it

Most likely the gaskets need to be replaced... maybe the valve cover, oil pan, etc...if oil gets on the exhaust it can cause the oil to smell

2010 Cadillac SRX- rear passenger door appears to lock with remote, however it will open and unlocks all other doors in the process. Actuator works and you can see lock button going up and down.

This appears to be a known issue. You need diagnostics with a pro grade scan tool computer. You aren't looking for codes, but data network issues or problems with the BCM. The cheapest option would be an auto electrician or alarm installer. https://www.google.com/search?q=2010+cadillac+srx+doors+lock+and+then+unlock ..

?Freeze valve? how to replace in a 98 Cadillac DeVille

To replace the freeze valve in a 1998 Cadillac DeVille, you will need to follow these steps:
  1. Locate the freeze valve. It is typically located near the radiator or the heater core, and it is responsible for preventing the cooling system from freezing in cold weather.
  2. Disconnect the negative battery cable. This will prevent any electrical accidents while you are working on the car.
  3. Drain the cooling system. This will allow you to remove the freeze valve without spilling coolant all over the engine compartment. To drain the cooling system, locate the drain valve at the bottom of the radiator and open it.
  4. Remove the freeze valve from the cooling system. This will typically involve loosening the mounting bolts or screws that hold it in place, and then pulling it out of the system.
  5. Install the new freeze valve. To do this, you will need to reverse the steps you took to remove the old valve. Start by placing the new valve in the same position as the old one, and then secure it in place with the mounting bolts or screws.
  6. Refill the cooling system. Once the new freeze valve is installed, you will need to refill the cooling system with the appropriate type and amount of coolant.
  7. Reconnect the negative battery cable and start the engine. This will allow you to test the new freeze valve and make sure it is functioning properly.
It is important to follow these steps carefully to ensure that you replace the freeze valve correctly and safely. If you are not comfortable with performing this task yourself, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified mechanic.

2000 Cadillac Deville dual overhead cam standing at the front of the car what cylinder is number one

Which engine is fitted to your Cadillac? As a general rule Cylinder One is usually positioned nearest the belts and pulleys on the end of the engine, the furthest away from the transmission. Stand in front of the engine with the belts and pulleys nearest to you. The cylinders to the LEFT are the Odd numbers, (1,3,5,7), and the cylinders to the RIGHT are the Even numbers, (2,4,6,8). Number One is LEFT side nearest to you.
