Used TMV from $19,710
I purchased this vehicle in 2008 and it has been a complete nightmare. On a consistent basis, the "engine powering down" message randomly pops up and the car completely shuts off. Last week, this happened as I was in the middle of a high-traffic road. In the last six months I have replaced both the front right and front left blinkers SIX times. Every single day the "stability control" and "traction ... Read More
My wife purchased the SRX a little less than a year ago. The vehicle was loaded, the Signature Edition and was on the showroom floor. Just what she was looking for. When she drove it home, the following day she found several interior problems. Within a month the black piece between the windshield and sunroof cracked in half. Since then we have had that piece replaced three (3) times due to ... Read More
I want to share with you what happened to me recently. I had a crazy, very dangerous episode with his 2008 Cadillac SRX when I was returning home after work about 10 days ago. While traveling around 70 mph on the interstate, my extended sunroof EXPLODED and rained millions of shards of glass on me. Thankfully, my dauther was not in her car seat because it was filled with glass! I ... Read More
So, how has the Cadi been since the repairs? I received the terrible word yesterday that the timing chain and crankshaft need to be replaced in my 2008. I have only owned this vehicle for 6 months (purchased used with 19,000 miles). I thought I was making a good desicion to purchase this vehicle when my 2005 Durango constantly stalled while driving and the dealer could not fix it. I think ... Read More
Hello tomy3 I have a 2007 SRX and recently had some of the same problems. Oddly, I had just picked my car up from the dealer for another matter when my check engine light came on for the 2nd time in 2 weeks. I contacted ONSTAR, and while I was driving they were able to tell me that there is open GM bulletin on this car that affects the timing chain ... Read More
I just picked up my 2008 SRX which had been disabled and in the shop for about three weeks. It turns out that the diagnosis went from timing chain, to broken valve spring to crankshaft (some type of ring on the front of the shaft). Bottom line..Cadillac decided to replace the engine rather than risk more problems and a longer wait. The car is only four months old and has only ... Read More
While I have not had major engine issues with my 04 V8 I have had every manner of other issues. The response I got from GM was that they would fix it under the terms of the warranty. They have showed no consideration whatsoever for my time or the aggravation caused to my wife and I. Our Cadillac ownership experience has been poor and I will never buy another GM product ...

My 2008 SRX (V-6) became disabled last week. The car suddenly stated running very rough, including knocking and pre-ignition backfire. Had it towed to dealer. First report was that it was a timing chain problem. Once that was replaced car still ran rough and they determined that a valve spring in the #1 cylinder was broken. Once that was fixed, they test drove the vehicle at which time the "check engine" ... Read More
Hi jwoodie. General Motors is currently providing $2,000 customer cash or 0% to 4.9% special financing on the 2008 Cadillac SRX. If you choose to lease this model, the cash incentive that is available on it drops to $950 and its lease rate is 6.0%. As far as what sort of selling price to shoot for goes, if I was personally in the market for a new SRX right now I ... Read More
Over the years I have read, but not posted to this forum. Now that the SRX has been sold, I feel compelled to put in my two cents worth. Ours was a 2004 SRX AWD V6 with Luxury Performance Package. In other words it had every available option except the V8 engine. It was purchased in December 2004 and sold in June 2008 with 60,000 miles and a stack of Cadillac ... Read More
The dealers service mgr and the owner of the dealership even wrote letters to the high ups at Cady, my dealer got some action with them sending "noise and vibration engineers, drove from Michigan Proving Grounds, we did the same thing tires/wheels (was Michelin and now Michelin), computer tuning, rear end and it still vibrates at 40+. the guys went back to Michigan and some higher up said stop! Not good ... Read More
Hello hamom. This vehicle's lease payment will vary depending upon what its MSRP and selling price are. You never mentioned either of these numbers in your post, so I will have to make some assumptions to work up a sample lease payment for you. For now I will assume that you want to lease a 2008 Cadillac SRX V6 with the Luxury Package that has an MSRP of $42,265 and a ... Read More
Hey sheepdog1. You must have liked your last SRX if you are in the market for a new one. One of my relatives has one and they really like it. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2008 Cadillac SRX V6 with 12,000 miles per year are 4.0% and 64%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are 4.0% and ... Read More
Hey tcw1965. According to the latest information that I have seen, GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Cadillac SRX with 12,000 miles per year are 4.0% and 55%, respectively. I believe that GM is only providing $950 lease cash on this model right now, but it did introduce an additional $500 owner loyalty cash on leases of it this month. Car_man ... Read More
I'd be happy to help you out, aureachase. GMAC;s current base lease rate and residual value for a 27 month lease of a 2008 Cadillac SRX V8 with 15,000 miles per year are 4.0% and 62%, respectively. the numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are 4.0% and 52%. As you can see, GMAC publishes lease rates instead of money factors for vehicles. You can convert its published lease rates ... Read More
Hi polara60. I believe that General Motors is currently providing $2,500 dealer cash on the 2008 Cadillac SRX. This cash incentive is available to all dealers, regardless of what part of the country they are in. Unfortunately, I do not think that it is compatible with GMAC's special lease program. You can only get it on SRX models that you pay cash for, finance through GMAC, or finance through an independent ... Read More
Here's the information that you're looking for, NHman. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2008 Cadillac SRX V8 with 12,000 miles per year are 4.0% and 65%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are 4.0% and 56%. The numbers for a 39 month lease are 4.0% and 55%. As you can see, GMAC publishes lease rates instead of ... Read More
Hi surviveone. A selling price of $2,000 under dealer invoice is an excellent deal on a lease of a 2008 Cadillac SRX. This is below dealer invoice, even after taking the $1,450 lease cash that GM is providing on this model into account. Just make sure that the dealer that you are working with uses GMAC's current base lease rate of 4.0% to calculate your monthly payment and you're all set. ... Read More
I have a 2007 SRX with nav and I use it all the time. It is true that you can't enter a destination while you are driving, but you can pick a destination from an address list that you have stored.
I find the 6 cyl. SRX pretty quiet on light acceleration. My Mazda 6 which i removed the stock tray and part of the airbox has a nice roar on acceleration, so i have a comparison.
I now have 1500 miles and must confess, I like the vehicle now more than when I test drove it. It is a great size for me. What I love most is the huge glass sunroof. My biggest complaint is the navigation system. The person responsible for selecting such a poor GPS should be fired. It is not user friendly and cannot be used, even by a passenger, when the vehicle ... Read More
11 months old and at 12000 miles I have had to replace the following: 1 battery, 6 tires from various positions, 2 front wheels, a timing chain, a steering rack, a rear CV joint, and that does not include the repaired sun roof problem, the repaired front a/c vent and some other piece of plastic at the rear hatch.....and yesterday I found out about a national recall on this car for ...

Hey smokiejoe. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 39 month lease of a 2008 Cadillac SRX V6 with 12,000 miles per year are 4.0% and 51%, respectively. GM is providing $1,000 bonus cash plus $1,450 lease cash on this vehicle right now. The $1,000 conquest cash that you mentioned can be combined with these cash allowances, but I believe that it is only available to residents of ... Read More
Hi stevef5. I don't believe that you need any certificate to take advantage of the offer that you saw advertised. GM is currently running a $1,000 conquest cash promotion on the 2008 and 2007 Cadillac SRX. This incentive is available to current owners and lessees of any non-GM vehicle. In addition to this incentive, GM is providing $1,450 lease cash on the '08 SRX and $1,750 on the '07 model. Car_man ... Read More
Hi cadillacbuyer. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Cadillac SRX V6 with 12,000 miles per year are 4.0% and 55%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 48 month lease are 4.0% and 47%, respectively. When negotiating your lease on this vehicle, make sure to take advantage of the $1,450 lease cash that is currently available on it. Car_man Host Prices ... Read More
Hi Mick. The lease rate and cash incentives that you were quoted for this vehicle are right in line with General Motors' current promotions for it. This is a good sign. In an area that has a decent level of competition like the one that you are in, I personally would shoot for a selling price of $500 to $1,000 over invoice before the deduction of the cash incentives. Make sure ... Read More
Hello jennian. This vehicle's lease program varies by term and mileage allowance. for now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if you want something different. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Cadillac SRX V6 with 15,000 miles per year are 3.95% and 52%, respectively. The numbers for ... Read More
Just came from Clairmont Cadillac in West Caldwell. They are pricing the 2008's at just over invoice. AWD, third row seat and luxury package for $43,000 less lease rebate and conquest of $2450. Has anyone gotten a good price in metro NJ yet on a 2008? Thanks Mick
Does anyone know if Cadillac will offer the smart key so you don't have to put a key into the ignition? Love everything about the car but can't go back to using a key. Also, what about power tilt/telescoping wheel?
Hi jtpcpa. I dealers will indeed be anxious to unload their remaining 2007 models now that the 2008s have begun to arrive, but I have a feeling that $1,000 under dealer invoice may be a little optimistic. I suspect that a selling price of invoice minus the available lease cash is probably a little more realistic. Try stopping by the following discussion to see how much other community members have paid ... Read More
I am expecting to lease a 2007 SRX before the July 9th end of the spring promotion. As the 2008 models are now shipping would it be unreasonable to expect discounting of the cap cost below invoice. I understand that I am already good for $3250 of factory money in the form of conquest cash and rebate. I have in mind a Base V6 RWD in Thunder Gray with the Y45 ... Read More
Thank you. Interesting, I have the same analysis. MDX is a safer choice, but the Caddy would be more fun. I agree, that roof is the coolest thing ever. I will probably buy the MDX. The shame of it is that GM could dominate this market segment if it wanted to. They make a really good 300 hp V6, but don't put it in the SRX. Even the V6 they put ... Read More
Hi karld. I haven't heard that GM is going to stop producing the SRX after the 2008 model year, but that does not necessarily mean that it won't happen. Try stopping by the following discussion to see if anyone there has heard this rumor: "Cadillac SRX". Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum
Car and driver said that the last producetion of the cadillac SRX was stopping after the 2008 model is released. Any word out there on this???? Dealer said no.
I heard that on Car and Driver that the cadillac SRX was was no longer going to be produced after they release 2008 model. Any word out there???
When will Cadillac roll out the 08 SRX?
