SOURCE: I can not find the oil pan plug on my srx 2006

it is on the passenger side of the pan, if you cannot find it, you are probably looking at the trans pan, the oil pan will not look like a normal pan, it will be square and aluminum with all kinds of diamond looking deep etches in it.

SOURCE: rear liscese plate bulbs on 05 cadillac srx

First you have to take out the one and only screw in the rear hatch door - it's where the hand pull down is you use to close the hatch.
Then you have to pop all the plastic clips all the way around the plastic door panel, trying not to pull them out from the frame . If you do pull out the white plastic plugs from the frame you better make certain you take them off the plastic housing and insert them back into their frame holes - or you will never get the housing back on.

Once you have the housing loose disconnect the inside tail gate light wire to remove the whole thing. Then you have to remove 7 to 8 nuts from the back of entire License plate, back up bulb housing using a deep socket to get in there. Work it loose from the rear of the car and it will come out just enough to work on the lights.
This is tricky since the screw mounts don't give you much room to work with.

Once you have the license plate and back up bulb frame loose you will see the two housings for the license plate bulbs on top.

Slide out the license plate bulb lens and twist the bulb connection to remove the bulbs.
Replace both of them - you don't want to do this again in a month when the other one blows.

OPTIONAL:
Once you take out the bulbs you might see that the housing is melted where the bulb wanted to burn through. Drill two small holes one is each end of the housing before I put everything back together to release some of the heat.


Reverse the whole process to put everything back together. It's not easy.
Make sure you insert the cables through the opening for the hatch handle or it will kink and not work properly.

The bulbs come in a two pack of cost $4.95 .

SOURCE: Changing fuel filter on 2004 Cadillac SRX

If you go to the auto parts store they should have a fuel line disconnect tool that has a 5/16ths end an a 3/8ths end. The tool is shaped like an X. Before you start you need to pull the fuel pump fuse under the front of the REAR passenger side seat while the car is running and let it stall. it will release the built up pressure. This is important unless you want gas to spray every where. Then take the tool and start with the end of the filter with two lines. Place the appropriate end of the tool over the smallest inlet, push the tool in then pull the line towards the filter and then push the line away and it should disconnect. Do the same with line above. Then you can use the two appropriate size wrenches to disconnect the outlet end. reconnecting the new filter is simple just make sure your quick connect lines click in all the way and you tighten the outlet line well, I think its like 22 or 25 ft/lbs.

SOURCE: where is oil drain plug on 2005 V8 SRX caddilac

crawl under the car with a drain contaner and a cresent wrench. Under the engine is the oil pan. The drain plug is located on the bottom end or slightly above on the side. It may be covered in dirt so scrap around. It has to be there. No other place for the oil to come out. It is possable it is a plug type with a large allen wrench hole or a squar hole that a ratchet will fit in to but most of them it is a bolt type. Don't forget to change the oil filter when changing oil. Let me know if this helps, The Raz

Cannot find oil plug to change oil on cadillac srx all wheel drive 2011

The plug is a 15mm bolt. It is positioned on the corner point on the rear passenger side of the oil pan. The exhaust has a bend at that position so a ring spanner will be easier than a socket. have a look at the video link so you know what your looking for.

I have a 2004 Cadillac SRX V8 it wont start it will crank but no start i have change the spark plugs but i did not use OEM plugs used AC Delco irridium plugs. Why or what could be problem?

Quit throwing money at it and have the codes read. You could have bought a cheap code reader for what you paid for those plugs. Codes tell you a direction to look. I suggest you check fuses first. You have a panel under the hood and under the back seat. I usually just pull them one at a time and look I also wiggle the relays. This gets rid of corrosion problems. And people usually say thank you for fixing another problem. Caused by bad fuse or corrosion..

I changed spark plugs and changed cylinder #1 on my 2006 cadillac srx but now its shaking what did I do wrong? It wasn't shaking before

How do you change a cylinder? That's generally a major machine-shop overhaul on non-aircraft engines, and you should have serviced rings and bearings for all of the other cylinders as well. I assume you meant you did something else on Cylinder #1. Did you mean you changed the spark plug cable, or was it the fuel injector? Note: if you mixed up spark plug cables, you will have at least two plugs firing at the wrong time. This will make the engine run poorly, if it runs at all. Look for a sticker somewhere in the engine compartment showing the firing order, and verify that each cylinder's spark plug wire is connected to the corresponding terminal on the distributor or coil pack.

Check the Compression to be sure but probably a Plug that has dirt on it. You can always try SEA FOAM to clean the Injectors...

I need to know where are my spark plugs for 2006 cadillac srx v6

Your spark plugs are located on the top side of the engine, if you follow down the spark plug wires it will take you right to them. You will have to unplug the spark plug wire to get to them.

I have 5800 miles on my Cadillac 2005 SRX - #1 engine is misfiring and the mechanic said the coil is bad. recommendation is to replace all the spark plugs and coils since you have to take apart the air...

I wouldnt say it needs plugs and ALL coils I would replace just the one coil and take my chances on the rest sounds like they are trying to make extra $$$
