epluzy Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 My 95 STS recently developed a problem. It started as just an intermittent whining/whirring normaly just at start-up and then it would go away after a few minutes. A couple of nights ago drving on the highway the car had a severe power loss and the noise came back with it. It seems to occur over 2000 rpm. I drove it slowly to the Cadillac dealer and they couldn't take it until next week. After leaving the dealer the problem disappeared and didn't reappear the whole way home. I started the car this morning and the problem is back. I checked the codes and there are no related codes. Any help or possibilites before I bring it in to the dealer would be greater apprecieated. thanks p.s. Does anyone know of a good shop to bring the Cadillac into in the West Palm Beach Florida area?

epluzy Posted February 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Checked today and no codes present. I also noticed that as the car gets warmer it takes a higher rpm to get the noise to occur. Any help at all as to what might be the problem would be great.

epluzy Posted February 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 I brought it into the dealer and they told me that the pump had failed and the best option would be to replace the whole trans for $4-$5K. I took the car to a local AAmco and they said it definetly isn't the pump, it is something internal and it would be about $2k for a rebuild and then whatever for what is broken on the inside. I am also considering replacing the trans myself. Any advice on these or other options would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
