1993 Cadillac DeVille Sixty Special 4.9L V8

Summary:

Turns heads when you're only 24 y/o!!

Faults:

When I got it it started choking and stalling on me all the time so I had it checked... My cat was clogged up so it was cleared and a carbon treatment was done. things went well for a few days...

Then I changed the water pump myself and a hose blew 2 days later. I also changed the "sludgy" oil as well as the oil pan gasket... and it fixed all the previous problems!! Could have saved $800!! Dammit!!

Brake caliper driver's side was change... now I need to change the back plate and that's all!!

General Comments:

Other than these few troubles everything is just amazing. Couches are insanely comfortable and it rides like a true Caddy. A little bouncy at times, but not that bad. It's a gas gobbler though...

Engine is super quiet. All I hear is a little grow due to my empty cat, but it somehow gives it a little sporty sound... kinda like it! Everything works perfectly, but the A/C is not as strong as it used to be when new, but that's only normal...

You can actually feel the automatic suspension and power steering work for you. Overall an amazing car for it's age. If you can afford the premium gas (regular is totally not recommended cuz I tried it!!) this is the perfect luxury car!

Faults:

Needed a new starter.

General Comments:

I love this car. I bought it for $2500 and its in mint condition. Never been in an accident. No rust anywhere. I use it as a winter car because I also own a 2006 Ford Mustang which will not drive well in the snow in Michigan. So I use this Caddy to go to and from work. It so smooth on the freeways. I will drive this car till the wheels fall off of it.

1993 Cadillac DeVille

Summary:

This has got to be the sexiest car ever made!!!

Faults:

I've replaced the water pump and serpentine belt at a total cost of 200.00 parts and labor.

General Comments:

I love this car! She's beautiful! Excellent performance and you can't beat the comfort. It's like riding on air. Mine is pearl white with garnet red interior. Excellent condition inside and out. At my son's suggestion, I've added 20 inch, 240 spoke chrome rims, tinted the windows and voila! I am now officially a very cool mom.

Just finished cleaning the whitewalls on my 93 Deville. It still looks, runs and rides great. The only good reason I can think of to get a newer one is to have more airbags - passenger front and sides.

I have a Cadillac DeVille 1993. It was one of the best cars I ever owned. 130.000 klm on it, and it never cost me too much in repairs; about 100,00 for to replace a gas line. But I love it. Luxurious car.

All in all this is a kick a$$ car!!!

ABS Light never shuts off.

General Comments:

I just bought a 1993 Cadillac Sedan De Ville. It's white with blue leather interior. I'm 16 and this is my first car. I have always dreamed of driving a caddy. They have and awesome ride, great power, and great reliability. There are two minor problems that really bother me. One is this dang ABS light. I had a brake shop look it over and do a diagnostics test on it and they said my breaks were new and they couldn't find a problem. The second one is the wind noise you get in the driver and passenger side doors up front. When I hit interstate speed of 65-70 miles per hour It's pretty loud. Can any one help me with these problems.

Try the weather stripping around the doors.

The place that I bought it from just re-did the weather stripping, but I heard that the door shade things you can put on the edge of the windows might help.

Hi I am also 16 and my ABS light won't go off either. The Cadillac dealership told me to buy a new master head cylinder and switch.
