This 300 horsepower vehicle is the most fun to drive car I've ever owned. Forget my wife's Lexus, this car is better!
Head Gaskets can Blow on some Northstar Engines

My wife treated her Cadillac with kid gloves and it was Garaged from day one. When it began OVERHEATING at only 63K, I knew we had a problem. Our Local mechanic performed what was known as THE TRIPLE PLAY. They replaced the water pump, the thermostat, and the upper crossover gaskets. Turned out that the engine's Head Gaskets were blown and a local Cadillac Dealer quoted me $7,500.00 to replace them. GM knew that some of their Northstar Engines were blowing head gaskets, but failed to do anything about it. Came down to Aluminum Heads on Steel Blocks and temperature changes for the two different metals. Their Bolts were too short and the bite in the Steel Blocks didn't hold. Norm Huhn (huhnsolutions.com) held the patent on fixing that engine's problem as well as sourcing a local Cadillac Mechanic who knew how to properly fix the problem. Overall, it takes 3 days since the Car has to be lifted off the engine once everything from the engine has been disconnected. Anyway, our 2000 Cadillac DHS Sedan Deville now runs just fine and like the day my wife drove it out of the Dealer's Showroom. YES, there is LIFE after blown head gaskets on these Cadillacs. Just a matter of contacting Norm for his insert kit and finding a Mechanic who knows how to do the job properly. Other than that and replacing most of the sensors, this car has a brand new life and much more to go. 20K after the fix and still going strong! In the end, it only cost me $3K to replace the heads PROPERLY on this Northstar Engine and it runs great!

Reliability is very disappointing. Three batteries in three years. New catalytic, re-program IPC module, A/C module replaced, window mechnanism failed, crank sensor adjusted etc. Significant service required 7 times in past 10 months

I've owned my 2000 deville since 03 and love it. It does burn oil but thats normal. Its got 112,000 on it and has been great. Just now having to really put money into it. Power steering pump and hose goes out at this millage. Over all great car and will buy another one.

I have never been so disappointed in a vehicle..I let it get repo'd to avoind any further hassles..over 20 trips to the dealership for repeat warranty work and still NO SATISFACTION the navigation system fried the computer 3x before they removed it..night vision never worked correctly, ALL the windows FELL OUT and way too many other things..I still cant believe Cadillac wouldn't do something about it either, after I paid over 55K
