boricua3131 Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 The rear of my ride lifted all the way up this past weekend. I started the car and the compressor just kept kcik'n in. No codes what-so-ever, but I took it in to my nearest GM dealer-----what a mistake! This tech has the nerve to say that the car checks out fine....ride height is at Caddy specs? LOL--yeah right! The tech blames it on my aftermarket rims "being smaller" and giving the "illusion" of the gap between the wheels . WOW!! My aftermarket rims are bigger and taller than OE. Does my photo indicate smaller wheels? Take your car to a Cadillac dealer and avoid techs with inexperience to such a machine . They are now looking into the matter. What is it with this total flush of ALL my fluids? ( Trans, power steering, brake, injector flush, etc) Total would be close to a full grand? When is it appropriate to do such a massive flushing of ALL fluids? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Nunnally Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 The dealer offers flushing of all fluids as a way to increase dealer profit. Consult the owner's manual, or your mygmlink.com for actual recommended maintenance schedule. Even when it is time to change a fluid I would shy away from flushes and stick to drain and refill.

clarkz71 Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 I agree. My Eldo just turned 60K miles and I changed all the fluids. P/S, brake, trans. It is an 11 year old car after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
