I have a 2003 cadillac deville, the check engine light came on so i took it to my buddy's garage and hooked it to the scanner and it said it is the pollution control system problem. I never heard of this before. Can you please help me? How much will this job cost and is it easy to find the parts?

Cost and complexity depends on exactly what trouble codes you found. Post the codes and we can help. Saying that it's the pollution control system is way too broad. There are many components in the system

SOURCE: MAP sensor 1994 Cadillac Deville

The map sensor shouldn't cost more than 50 bucks or so. It is very easy to change, and can be done w/ simple tools. It mounts to the intake manifold. There is a wire connector that plugs into it. Just remove the two mounting bolts, and the connector, and it will pop right off. This is not a tough repair, so it can be done in about 10 minutes at most. This should save a trip to the repair shop!

SOURCE: Check engine light on, 1997 cadillac Deville.PCM codes

PO135 is oxygen sensor Bank1 sensor1. PO404 is EGR.
personally, I'd pull EGR off, clean pintle good with throttle body cleaner or carb cleaner, re-install, erase codes & try it for a while & see if it code(s) come back.

Your car is equipped with an OBD II system and requires and OBD II scan tool to reset the check engine light. There is a port under the dash that it hooks to.

A very basic tool is available from a variety of places for about $20.(i.e ebay, Harbor Freight)

A service engine light means it's time for an oil change. That light needs reset after the oil is changed. The computer senses the miles drove automatically and says "change my oil, it's been 3,000 miles" A CHECK engine light means it has to get a scan done. Change the oil, it will be fine. It is suppose to do that. Let me know if this helps you.

Service engine soon light

You need to ge a scanner hooked up to see what error your computer has found. Most auto parts stores will do this for free, but you get little to no information about your code. Start with this. A good garage may be better help.

How to program a 1998 cadillac deville remote your self

Hello: You need to have the remote programmed with a scanner. I do not know if any independent garage can do it with a upscale scanner. You might call around and inquire. One thing I know for sure is any GM dealer that has a GM Tech 2 can do it. Now, some independent repair shops have the GM scanner so check around.

Hi my name is danny i have a 2004 cadillac deville how many quarts of oil it take and also the check engine light comes on

2004 Cadillac Deville holds 7.5 quarts (or 7.1 Liters) with a filter change.

as far as the check engine light goes u must have the system tested to determine the cause, there are over 200 faults that can cause the check ngine light to come on and each has a number like this example "P0174 bank 2 eng lean".

1994 Cadillac DeVille Concourse - Runs rough?

The "check engine" light will "light" when there is a malfunction in the engine management system. The fault code is then stored in the computer. The computer must be scanned to retrieve these stored faults to pinpoint the malfunctioning component. We recommend buying your own scanner and doing it yourself. With a pocket scanner you can check for fault codes to find out why the light came on in the first place. You can clear your cars trouble codes after you replace the malfunctioning sensors.
