It also has been know to do the opposite, where the idle will fall so low that it will stall - again for no know reason or problem.
I have had the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS), Idle Air Control (IAC), the related wiring all replaced and rechecked over four times. The TPS and IAC were both replaced 3 times.
I'm at a loss. It has cost me over $2,000 and I still have the exact problem when I started. No one knows what to do - including myself.
Has anyone had similar problems and solved it? If, please HELP! Thanks
Any solutions out there?
Extremely poor design as so many things on this model.
Any way to repair this problem?
Thank you. :P :lemon:
The "Service Suspension" light hasn't appeared. But once the load has been taken off, the car's ride height/level returns to normal. Could it be true that this car needs rear shocks already? I see a lot of older DeVilles (94-99) that have the "droopy butt". Is this something relative to this model. I say this because my '03 DeVille DTS doesn't have this problem. Even the base and DHS models were absent of this. Other than that, the car is flawless. It still has the new car smell. It will prbably remain that way as this car requires premium as opposed to regular for my DTS, and @ $3.60/gal as of yesterday, I don't think I'll be driving it any time soon. In advance, any help would be appreciated.
If any of ya'll want to comment feel free. I went to the search window that the hosts provided me and found nothing.
I'm just trying to help a friend out.

P.S.
Luckily I haven't heard similar problems on 99' and up STS Northstars.
My 1993 Cad sts called for oil changes at about 5500 mi, and after over 200,000 mi it runs fine and uses no more oil than when new. Hope this helps. I think changing oil at 3000 mi is a waste except for the changers.
Anyone have any ideas where to get 1 factory 22" Escalade 07 FACTORY wheel/tire? It appears according to my local dealer this is a special order item that takes 2 days to get updated on availablity that could be months?
It's hard to believe this and any insight on how to obtain it faster would be great!
Thanks
Sometimes, I have found my brake will stick, try cycling the tranny between park and drive a few times.
thanx
Sounds like a no win situation on all counts. Can't think of a good reason to do it---if I could, I'd tell you.
Currently have 67k
just going through some posts and found yours from "05. But, was wondering if this problem continued and/or you found out the problem/solution. I have an 03 CTS and it seems that the radio cuts out occasionally for about one second. Hopefully that isnt a long run problem.
thank you, Mike

I need some help! My '91 Deville with the 4.9 is running very rough and skipping. It seems to run rich when it is acting up but will run really good sometimes. It doesn't seem to matter if it is hot or cold. I have replaced the plugs, cap, wires, and ignition module. It doesn't have any codes set in the computer. It is not hard to start. Sometimes the roughness is there from the start and sometimes its not. It's intermittent, but is getting worse. The exhaust is very black and the mileage is down. I suspect a bad injector. But would an injector come and go? Anyone had this kind of problem before? Any and all ideas greatly appreciated.

Just tell them to check it out. Should not be too expensive a repair, say what $150? They fooled around with Mass Air Flow Sensor, and Programmable Operation Modules and such, and it still quite running ever so many thousand miles. Take it in and it ran. Well they finally did the crankcase sensor thing - the CKP or whatever so called, it ran.
Go in a tell them you are a crankcase and need a new sensor. :mad: No, maybe not. Seriously, it could be what is doing this. - Loren

It may turn out to be a sensor but without checking the codes, clearing them and then diagnos the one that comes back you won't know for sure.
