EGR systems are prone to trouble, because it recirculates exhaust gases back into the manifold, the EGR valve gums up with carbon from the exhaust gases, if it is the type you can remove, remove the valve it generally can be cleaned with carb cleaner and replaced.

SOURCE: No heat in 91 Cadillac Sedan Deville

I would beleive more that you have build up in the heater core. Try taking loose the heater hoses from the block and use a water hose to spray into one of the hoses letting it come out the other hose then switch hoses with the water hose and keep reverseing for 2/3 times each hose. sounds like stop leak may have been used in a prior time and may be blocking water flow.

Good luck,

SOURCE: 2001 cadillac deville, overheats without loss of coolant

First, provided their are no visible coolant leaks and/or loss of coolant with no signs of leaks, I would thoroughly flush cooling system and replace coolant, then check and/or replace thermostat (you can place thermostat in boiling water to check for proper function), if you have tried these 2 steps and still are experiencing overheating you may need to replace your water pump which can be a tricky job if you're unfamiliar and try to do it yourself, however, I could walk you through it if necessary. Also visually check your radiator hoses for bulges, wear ,etc along with heater hoses etc. You may want to also check radiator fins to see if they are dirty/obstructed and clean if necessary. Let me know if I can assist you further and how it works out

What does an e48 code mean on 1990 cadillac

Below os a description of what code e48 is and basically has to do with the EGR system and your computer doing tests and the tests failing. As far as the other codes I'm not certain to be honest with you. I do know by holding the "OFF" & "LOW" buttons at the same time clears the codes in the BCM and a 7.0 should appear at the end. The .0.7 and the .8.8.8 I am sorry but didn't have any luck with that and really haven't heard of. Wish I could be more help but here is the description on the e48 for you. Hope this helps.

What are these codes for 92 cadillac deville ff,f40,f,e,e48,e52,ee,888,70?

Hello williamcole7: My name is Roger and I will help you. The code 888 is a test code. This tests the L e d's of the dash cluster. All segments must light so you can read all numbers. The 70 code means the system is ready and able to function. The ff code is a current BCM code and is happening at the moment. The f 40 code is a BCM history code and means it was a stored problem or something that has happened. The f 40 code is for a air mix door problem. THe BCM would set this if you had an A/C problem. The E 48 code deals with the EGR system fault. I would check for a vacuum leak at the EGR solenoid. The hose is prone to deterioration do to heat from the engine. Code E52 deal with loss of voltage. A dead battery or a disconnected battery cable will always set this code. None of these codes will keep the car from running.The repair schematics are to extensive to send in a reply. Should you need further help ao assistance I will be glad to help. Please rate the answer. Thank You for using Fix Ya. Roger

I HAVE A 91 SEDAN DEVILLE.4.9 PORT FUEL INJECTION V8. I HAVE PLENTY OF ACCELERATION FROM STOP TO 20-30MPH. BUT WHEN I AM AT ANY CRUISE SPEED AND STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR IT HESITATES AND DOES NOT...

Sounds like a malfunctioning egr system. Too much egr gasses at once will lean out the air fuel mixture and cause hesitation in an engine. Just my 2 cents.
