    Wierd HVAC(?) Noise

    You guys out there are great at sharing your immensely helpful diagnosis and opinions - I have a weird one for you. I have a 2006 V but posting to the larger audience here. There is a noise inside the car coming from approx the center stack. It sounds exactly like a bad blower bearing -...

    Help! Anyone recognize this part?

    I was working under the hood, had the intake air filter assembly off, and noticed this small strip of rubber laying on the passenger side of the engine. It is about 20" long, has a "T" cross section, about 1/8" across the top and 3/16" vertical. Going to try and attach photos here. I have a...

    Original V Tires available

    Anyone fanatical enough about keeping (or having) everything original that they want an original set of runflats for the V? If you noticed my other post you know I swapped these out. They are from an 06, and have 5-6/32 tread left. I'd sell them cheap if you can figure out how to get them...

    Run Flats (AGAIN - sorry) for the V

    Well it's been about a year and a half since the last run-flat thread so forgive me for starting this up again but I am wondering if anyone has any new experience. My wife wants the run flats. Is that enough to head off the discussion of how bad they are? I am still holding out the potential...

A few months back I took my V into the dealer for a coolant drain and replace since I didn't know when or if this was done by the previous owner. Talked with the (one!) XLR tech, gave him distilled water to use, and asked both before and after...

    Power Steering Fluid - Anything Unique?

    Enjoying my relatively new 06 V a lot. Still getting to know it. Found the power steering fluid low (about 1/2 way up the cold mark when hot). So a system that shouldn't leak is low, makes me worry - haven't had a chance to eyeball for leaks. Has anyone dealt with power steering leaks...

    What were the original floormats on a 2006 V?

    All, My 2006 V did not come with the original floor mats when I bought it. Can any of you original owners tell me what, if anything, was stitched on those mats? I see the aftermarket options have an embroidered "V" or a Cadillac crest. Were either of those originally installed and/or a...
