hopefully your not buying a lemmon and they are only telling you thats the problem ;) do your homework with Caddy's

How do you turn off the ac in a cadillac escalade 2008?

My boss's new cadillac escalade has had problems with the ac not being able to be turned off so i was wondering if their was a killswitch or a special way to turn it off because we've tried everything and we dont have the owners manual any help would be usefull|||Open the hood and disconnect the pressure switch located on the compressor or dryer. That will disable the compressor.





Keep in mind that that AC on these vehicles is always on and available for use. Defogging the windows is one reason.





Why doesn't he take it to the dealer?|||there should be a connector on the compressor to unplug so the clutch won't engage. that would kill it.|||Turn the fan switch to the 0 position.

Would a Turbomatic (the original) mate with a 390 Cadillac Motor or does it need a 429?

I've heard bad things about the 1963 Cadillac's engine and transmission.|||Don't use a 1963 car, damn old stuff.

How do I program my name into the DIC on my 2003 Cadillac Deville?

I just bought an '03 Deville. When I get into the car it says "Hi Dave;" Unfortunately my name is not Dave. (Apparently, the last owner's name was Dave).


The owner's manual says to go to a dealership to program the name. I didn't buy the car from a Cadillac dealer, I got it from a used car dealership. I would really like to avoid going to a Cadillac dealer to program my name in (I'm sure it would be super expensive). Does anybody know how I can program the name myself?|||I think it is too complicated to try and do it yourself. Just go to a Cadillac dealership and have them do it for you. A reputable dealership should not charge you anything to do it... but if they do, it would be around $50





Next time you get a oil change, go to the Cadillac dealership to get it done, and then while you are there get them to change your name too.





Good Luck and enjoy your new car.|||I just bought an 01 Oldsmobile Aurora with same issue. The DIC displays the former owner's name as [FORMER OWNER]'s Aurora. Didn't care about that feature but want the former owner's name gone. Couldn't find "go to the dealer" in the book. At least glad no one absolutely hacked the DIC to do it.

What would happen if I went to a GM dealership and asked for a 1964 Cadillac?

What if I told them I wanted a "1964 Cadillac Coupe Deville".





What would they do?|||Used or brand new?





If used, they'll say "Yes, sir!" and require a large deposit.





Then they'll go search for one on Autotrader and classic car sites and buy one real cheap. Then tack on $10,000 before selling it to you. If you back out, they keep your deposit.





If new.... you'll have to buy from a collector.|||they'll try to find one for you, then they will sell it to you at a very high price|||probably tell you to go to a junk yard. Don't you have a life to know better than to waste their time over a stupid question? Ur even an idiot for asking something like that here. grow up|||They would probably call the used cadillac factory and order you one.|||nothing/if they didnt have one they would just say it/|||The will ask for a deposit and then find ya one.





Cadillac is the worlds finest car.|||Same thing as if you went to Burger King and asked them.

Where do i find the engine number in my cadillac 1959?

I have an 1959 cadillac and I need to find the "engine" number just like how a car has a VIN number i need to somehow find the engine number. no stupid comments please.





thanks for answers.|||I don't know but your question brings back old memories for me. In 1959 a friend of mine's father bought an paid cash for a new 1959 Cadillac. The total cost was $5,700.00. How times have changed. The 1959 Cadillac was really popular with its fins and everything...|||According to my Chilton's manual:





"1954 thru 1957


Each car has a serial number and an engine unit number. The car serial number is located on a plate attached to the left front door pillar post.


ENGINE IDENTIFICATION IS STAMPED ON A MACHINED PAD AT THE FRONT, TOP EDGE OF THE RIGHTHAND BLOCK" The engine number has nine digits; the first two indicate the model year; the third and fourth, the series and the succeeding numbers, the individual car serial number. As an example: Engine unit number 546201140 would be a 1954, model 62, with a production numerical sequence of 01140......





1958


Identification is the same as above except, that a letter follows the first two digits of the engine unit number. This letter indicates the body style. All 1958 models were equipped with the same 4.000" x 3.625" (365 cu.in.) engine.





"BEGINNING 1959


Identification same as above, however the engine size has been changed to 4.000" x 3.875" (390 cu. in.)"|||It should be cast or stamped into the front of the engine block just below the cylinder head.
