1984 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz 2 Dr. Stainless Steel 4.1l Digital Fuel Injected on 2040-cars
Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
|
This is my 1984 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz with Stainless Steel Top, and the dealer added sunroof. Everything is here and as original as they come. This car was last driven in the summer of 2013, late-June. Where you see her (garage), is where she's sat since. Am not sure why suddenly quit, just quietly stopped. The engine is free, a 252 cu. in. - digital fuel injected. Either it is spark or fuel or both, but believe it's towards spark. This car runs very well once she is going again. Runs "fast", she's a runner! and is quiet while doing this feat ~ passing is no problem for this girl. I've driven this Eldorado 6 years + with no problems. Get in, put key in and go~ Ever since owning her, never had a tune-up, changed wires, spark plugs, nothing other than regular maintenance of oil, filter, air filter, and tires (the tires presently are 200 miles old) installed last year before summer (radials). She's tight and road fit otherwise with (alittle rattle and humm). There are many new parts that will come with this cadillac, which haven't been installed, (alternator, starter - big buck items, new intank fuel pump, fuel filter) to mention a few, to include a complete engine gasket set (boxed), this last item - I had ordered in the first year of owning. Again, tires are new with 200 miles on them, there is a warranty but I doubt it will apply to the new owner. Front brakes are fairly new. (have new rear brake pads in trunk) There are new rear air shocks included w/fixtures to go, am naming off those items I can remember bought new for this old girl. All belts are new. She will need interior work, paint and vinyl. The vinyl, I do have (new), but it is not the cushioned vinyl as seen on car. The battery is fairly new, 1+ year old and is the correct (750 cold crank amp). She's been given basic good care all these years, just never came to having paint or interior work done. A (very good) daily driver...driven easy for most of those years. (Bought in January 2007 with 109,000 miles, since that time now are 166,139 miles registered on odometer of June 2013). There have been those occasions when had to pass,... punch and she goes~ Again - Never in those 6+ years, have I had any problems, never! If anything, she's gotten looks and asked about. (at least once a month - would I sell her) There will be those items regarding electric - such as the front driver's seat, the buttons on driver's door that make it work, that is poor or a poor connection. Power door locks, and cruise control are about the only items that bothered me if anything, but didn't take away in the ease and comfort of this old black Cadillac. The sunroof works fine, (needs plugged in) the windows work well, passenger seat works well and reclines, both outside electric mirrors, rear window defrost, most of everything electric works well for this car's age. The rubber around windows are fairly good. The seal concerning doors are fairly good. The rubber that goes between the windows and doors are dry rotted. The seal going around sunroof needs replacing, it keeps the weather out well enough, but would recommend having it replaced. (is why is unplugged) The air conditioner will need a complete vacuum and re-seal to work again, but is all there and complete. Passed emissions - in October 2012 (2 year emissions) - no problem! All lights, turn signals, and brake lights - work fine! All interior lights work fine! Glove box just needs a bulb, but does work. All lighters, except in dash, work fine! Has a Kenwood CD am/fm Stereo with remote control - Led Zeppelin's 4th - CD album is in there, once you have it back on, you'll find it (there's an added plus). Power trunk release works fine, pull-down doesn't (needs replace). Since owned, never in any collisions and far as I know when purchased in beginning, never had any. Straight looking Black Cadillac for your consideration. Owner's Manual. Shop manuals. Own a piece of Cadillac History. Please see all pictures, ask all questions. This automobile will need transport at new owner's expense, preferably by trailer where it can be secured and towed safely on the road, one that has lights and brakes, tie-downs or chains to that effect... and last, all state taxes, registration fees and title concerning your state will be at new owner's expense.
Thank you for looking... |

GM recalls 3.6 million vehicles for airbag-software problems
Fri, Sep 9 2016The Basics: General Motors is recalling 3.64 million vehicles across its lineup for an airbag-related issue. The recall covers the 2014-2015 Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet SS, and Spark EV; 2014-2017 Chevrolet Corvette, Trax, Caprice PPV, Silverado 1500, Buick Encore, and GMC Sierra 1500; and 2015-2017 Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado HD, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Sierra HD, Cadillac Escalade, and Escalade ESV. The Problem: Affected vehicles have a sensing and diagnostic module that controls the airbags and seat-belt pretensioners. The software it uses has a defect that can prompt the module to run a diagnostic test under specific driving conditions, which will also deactivate the front airbags and pretensioners. This means that it would be possible for those safety systems to not activate in a crash, potentially leading to injury or death. Injuries/Deaths: General Motors began an investigation that led to the recall after a 2014 Silverado was involved in a crash in which the airbags did not deploy. No information was given as to injuries or deaths. The Fix: Owners can bring their vehicles to a local General Motors dealer where a software update will be installed to fix the issue. The fix will be free of charge. If you own one: General Motors will contact owners of affected cars, and owners can check whether their vehicles are affected by visiting entering their vehicle identification numbers at either the GM Owner Center website or the NHTSA website. Owners can then schedule a time to have the update installed. Related Video:
GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales
Wed, 12 Nov 2014General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.
Car subscription services: A slow, expensive start — but the potential is huge
Wed, Dec 26 2018Americans are used to paying for subscriptions — to magazines and cable television, for instance — but experience shows they'll cancel when the price of admission gets too high, or there are more tempting alternatives. Cord cutters ditched nearly 1.5 million pay-TV subscriptions in 2017, according to a survey by Leichtman Research Group. Cable TV started out cheap with basic offerings, and then got expensive. The auto industry's subscription offerings are new, but they're starting out costly, and not price-competitive with traditional leasing. The upside is that they take the hassle out of car ownership for busy people by letting the service take care of maintenance, insurance, licensing and taxes. And they give consumers choice, often allowing relatively painless switches between different cars in the automakers' lineup. Subscription services also point the way toward an ownership-free auto experience, and offer an easy transition to a potential world where ride- and car-sharing will be dominant. Subscriptions are here to stay, but consumers may take a while to "get" them. Lincoln's subscription service for lightly used 2015 to 2017 models, offered through the Ford-owned Canvas beginning this year, got off to a slow start. Many early subscribers canceled. Last month, Cadillac announced it would " temporarily pause" its $1,800-per-month Book subscription service for "adjustments" as of December 1. According to the Wall Street Journal, "Snags with the back-end technology used to support the service made some customer-service functions tedious and time-consuming, adding costs for the company." The challenge for automakers is to come up with a strategy that offers consumers a compelling, affordable option to regular ownership, and one that can also make a profit. I think they'll find that sweet spot, but they're not there yet. Jack Nerad, former executive editorial director at Kelley Blue Book and author of " The Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying or Leasing a Car," points out that "A lot of people expected that subscriptions would be very valuable for people who wanted inexpensive transportation, but the reality is quite the opposite. Subscriptions are offering more choices for the wealthy.
