  Mysterious Noise - 2003 Cadillac CTS
  By William Strachan - December 20 - 3:20 pm

  I love my car, however since the first time I drove it above 60 MPH there was an extreme howling noise that appears to come from either the sunroof or somewhere across the dash board. After several test drives especially with hearing challenged mechanic a new differential was installed with no luck. The noise sounds like a cross between a worn bearing or a strong wind across some metal vanes. It gets progressively loud when the outside winds are anywhere from 15 to 20 MPH or my vehicle speed reaches 60 mph and above. Its unbearable when ever I take a trip on the road. I have to turn the music up in order to drown out the sound.Its a shame that mechanics are not troubleshooters.

  The car is really fun to drive, but the cabin is extremely noisy. Noises are everywhere- dashboard, seats, windows, doors, you name it! Within the first three weeks I had the car, I had to send it back to the dealer for service. Other than these "little" problems, the car has a comfortable ride (although the rear has very little leg room), performance is fine, and the engine is really powerful. The dashboard controls are very easy to access, too, sompared to similar models.

  Some questions - 2003 Cadillac CTS

  Transmission changed awfully quick. Leaking caused under driver seat to stay wet.

  Great Car - 2003 Cadillac CTS
  By Gary - November 25 - 6:19 pm

  My faith in GM has been rebuilt with this car. The overall quality is excellent, it is fun to drive, it is economical and, it is high dependable. I now have 65,000 trouble free miles on it. Yes, I do have wind noise from the sunroof but that is it for negatives.

  I have had no problems with this car in almost four years. I just had to change a stop light bulb. I love my CTS.

  Try again Caddilac :( - 2003 Cadillac CTS
  By Caddilac_Man - November 12 - 2:00 am

  I have had nothing but problems with my Caddilac. I was the proud owner of a 97 DeVille and regret the trade. This CTS has been in and out of the shop numerous times already. The airbag light keeps on flashing. The plastic cupholder molding cracked. The passenger side glove compartment hinges broke. Its terrible. This is worse build quality than my winter beater car Chevy Cavalier. Thumbs down to GM. Now as far as the engine, its smooth as silk, but underpowered. Ive never driven a car this underpowered. My Cavalier feels gutsier. Caddilac, give me a V8 next time. Ill never buy another one. Im getting rid of it next month.

  excellent! - 2003 Cadillac CTS
  By firstcaddy - November 6 - 2:00 am

  ive had this car one week and would not trade it for anything. got the 5 speed manual and runs awesome. very comfortable seats and excellent engine power at any speed. only two things to modify: the glove box is too small, and the car revs too high at highway speeds in 5th gear: either add a 6th gear, or change the 5th speed gear to get better gas mileage. everything else about the car rocks!

  Next Generation Cadillac - 2003 Cadillac CTS
  By Joe Fuller - November 1 - 10:00 am

  The 0% financing closed the deal for me in April. I put an Altima and the CTS side by side in my driveway. While the Altima was quick and looks nice too, it cant compare to the "wow" factor of the CTS. The CTS is tight, quick and fun to drive. I didnt see another one on the road for two days. Lots of people commented on my new car at work. Im 46 and its perfect for me.

  Its a CADILLAC, what could be better - 2003 Cadillac CTS
  By tnmbenson - September 25 - 2:00 am

  a wonderful vehicle that is fun for the whole family. It works well for my wife and I, seeing we have two children. There is plenty of room for them, I could use just a little more room seeing Im 65 and 300lbs, but even at that I have room.
