Service bulletins for the 2005 Cadillac SRX

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

080730035C2018-05-21. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN. This bulletin provides information on the harmful effects of water or ethylene glycol in transmission fluid.
09-07-30-018C2017-10-12. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN; POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. This warranty administration bulletin provides information on the change in automatic transmission add conditions documentation and claim submissions
10-04-20-001F2017-08-15. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT. This technical bulletin provides a procedure to replace the rear differential fluid if the rear axle has a clunk or chatter noise on turns.
PIC5460B2017-08-15. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician on how to diagnose and repair vehicles with a no crank concern or they are unable to remove their key from the ignition lock cylinder may find Diagnostic Trouble Codes P0318, P1629, U1040, U1064, U1153, U1192, and U1300 stored in the Engine Control Module. Other Class 2 modules may have a U0100 and/or U1000 code stored. These concerns may be caused by an Ignition 1 Power Feed (circuit 5290) or Class 2 (circuit 1807) wiring concern to the Engine Control Module. If the electrical center ignition relay feedback parameter in the Engine Control Module is not battery voltage, measure the voltage at the Engine Control Module fuse in the under-hood fuse block. If voltage is less than battery voltage, check to make sure the Power Control Module is turning the relay on via circuit 5069. If there is battery voltage at the Engine Control Module fuse, check Ignition 1 (circuit 5290) between the fuse and the Engine Control Module. If Ignition 1 (circuit 5290) to the Engine Control Module checks ok, check for a possible open in the Class 2 (circuit 1807) to the Engine Control Module. If all connections and wiring are OK, suspect a possible relay or an ECM concern.
02-07-30-052J2017-08-15. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION; POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:COOLING UNIT AND LINES. This informational bulletin provides technicians with information regarding automatic transmission oil cooler flow test essential tool J-45096 TransFlow®.

PIP3720D2017-08-15. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY. This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician with the axel setup information from American Axle Manufacturing. Technician should be advised that the maximum pinion shim to be used or stacked behind the pinion is 0.050?, and the minimum pinion shim is 0.020? for an 8.6 axle. The range for available pinion depth shims for the 10.5? axle is 0.006? to 0.024?. When setting the backlash it should be set between 0.003? to 0.005? on a new ring and pinion for any American Axle Manufacturing application. The ring and pinion can be reused or adjusted if the mileage is less than 500 miles, if not used for towing. Technician should be advised that a ?roller coaster? or ?hourglass? pattern on the bearings may be normal up to 10,000 miles and possibly longer. With a mis-machined housing you may get a heel pattern on both sides of the gear teeth at build up can generally be corrected with backlash adjustments. When setting up an 8.6? axle with a 5 cut gear set is to use a 0.035? pinion shim and set backlash to 0.004?. When using the newer 2 cut gear set also use a 0.035? pinion shim and still set backlash to 0.004?. To set the gear pattern use backlash to adjust the pattern heel to toe. Use the pinion shim to adjust the height of the pattern. The proper drive pinion bearing pre-load is from 15 - 30 inch pounds with new bearings. The total torque to turn after the differential case is installed should increase 5 - 10 inch pounds at the pinion. A new pinion nut must be used whenever the old one is removed. The axle shaft end play specification is 0.012? per side and the radial specification is 0.002? - 0.003?. Technician should be advised that synthetic lube can be used in all new American Axle Manufacturing axle assemblies. The new pinion seal for the 8.6? axle assembly is a two piece design.
