TTQ B4U Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 Any one have any experiences with the cadillac srx? Pros cons and thoughts? First gen model 04-09 Meh....I bought a low mile 2007 one a few months ago from a friend in Florida and thought about selling our van. It was a RWD version with a V6. Plenty of power but in RWD even with T/C it sucked in rain let alone snow. (wife would drive it) but I thought perhaps she would enjoy it. I liked it but decided to flip it and make $2k instead. Road nice but wasn't any nicer IMO than the newer GM SUV's that have more for less. In AWD mode I would imagine it would be nice and we might have even kept it.

Crossle Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 RUN AWAY The 3.6L is a 100K throw away. Oil sucking pig, ridiculous front suspension wear, cheap interior, everything inside it rattles. I was blown away with how shitty they are for being a Cadillac. GM really messed up on that one. Had 4-5 of them come in 4 quarts low on oil miss firing and throwing cam position sensor codes and the bottom of the motor is totally dry. Less than 100K on the odo. VW/Audi uses less oil than these things... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tshensley Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 seen a lot of them in for service for drivetrain concerns. Very pricey to fix, recommend avoiding this model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuicedH22 Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 damn... I was just looking at these (as an alternative to a trailblazer/explorer) to replace my Pathfinder... Nevermind about that I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
