2005 Cadillac Cts Base Sedan 4-door 3.6l on 2040-cars

Montgomery, Illinois, United States

I purchased a stunning 2005 Cadillac CTS 3.6L from Don McCue Chevrolet in St. Charles at the start of the year. The car was on the lot for $10,000. 

A few weeks ago I got a check engine light stating that cylinder 1 was misfiring. I took it to the mechanic and apparently the passenger side head needs to be replaced (the water jacket in cylinder 1 is broken). I'm heading back to school and have no extra money for repairs right now. 

Besides that, the car is in excellent condition! Clean CarFax, No accidents. It is fully loaded with a brand new touch screen navigation system that includes a Kenwood amp and Kicker door speakers paired with a stock subwoofer. It also features dual heated leather seats, dual climate control, steering wheel controls, tinted windows, V badges, new brakes and brake pads, just had a full synthetic oil change, upgraded headlights, upgraded white diamond pearl paint, and much more! 

I have all the paperwork for the work done since I purchased the car.

As shown in the pictures there is a minor scrap on the rear bumper that was there when I purchased the car. 

In its current state, my mechanic highly advised waiting until the head is fixed to start the car. If it runs as is, it could cause further damage to the engine! Therefore, it will need to be towed! Buyer is responsible for all towing costs, etc. That being said, the car is sold AS-IS with NO WARRANTY, NO RETURNS, ETC. 

The car Blue Books for $8,445 without any upgrades! Nice car, I hate to see it go.

Cadillac to bolster CT sedans with XT crossovers

Wed, 01 Oct 2014

Cadillac is moving swiftly to change up its naming scheme. Barely over a week ago we received our first indication that it was considering a different name its the upcoming flagship sedan previously known as LTS. Then Cadillac not only revealed the model would be called CT6, but announced that it would set the stage with a massive overhaul of its model nomenclature. And now we have another piece of the puzzle.
According to Forbes, Cadillac will not only rename its sedans with the letters CT, but will realign its utility vehicles under the banner of XT - both to be followed by a number indicating its place in the lineup. The one exception will be the Escalade, whose nameplate has such a strong following that it would be foolish for Cadillac to cast it aside. That leaves only the SRX (pictured above), but makes room for a new crop of crossovers said to be in the works.
It's a similar approach which Cadillac's new boss Johan de Nysschen took in revising the naming scheme at Infiniti. While it's bound to ruffle some feathers and scratch some heads in the beginning - especially since the company's current flagship sedan is called XTS - it's equally sure to make sense of it all in the long run. All we need to know now is what Nysschen and his marketing chief Uwe Ellinghaus plan to call the coupes.

J.D. Power study sees new car dependability problems increase for first time since 1998

Wed, 12 Feb 2014

For the first time since 1998, J.D. Power and Associates says its data shows that the average number of problems per 100 cars has increased. The finding is the result of the firm's much-touted annual Vehicle Dependability Study, which charts incidents of problems in new vehicle purchases over three years from 41,000 respondents.
Looking at first-owner cars from the 2011 model year, the study found an average of 133 problems per 100 cars (PP100, for short), up 6 percent from 126 PP100 in last year's study, which covered 2010 model-year vehicles. Disturbingly, the bulk of the increase is being attributed to engine and transmission problems, with a 6 PP100 boost.
Interestingly, JDP notes that "the decline in quality is particularly acute for vehicles with four-cylinder engines, where problem levels increase by nearly 10 PP100." Its findings also noticed that large diesel engines also tended to be more problematic than most five- and six-cylinder engines.

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation

Sat, 09 Aug 2014



The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
