I have a 2016 base with the 3.6, awd and the 8l45 transmission. I picked it up off a lease with 59K on the odometer. It didn’t take long for me to notice the shudder and I had to do some homework before I knew what it was. There’s a class action lawsuit over the transmission and a few TSB’s - the last which is flushing and changing the fluid to the “correct type fluid” - all done on GM’s dime. I had mine serviced and got about 7,000 miles and felt the shudder beginning again so I brought it back. This time they swapped the torque converter and fluid again. I’m over 20K daily driving and that problem is a thing of the past. Fingers crossed it stays that way. Next: the air conditioning. Summer 2020 in July - I come out of work in Manhattan to zero functioning air conditioning. I drove through the Battery tunnel with the commuter busses in traffic. That sucked. Nothing got it to blow cold until I got to Staten Island at home and disconnected my ground on my battery. I did a “hard reset” - everything worked perfect immediately after. But the issue kept happening an I noticed that the temperature gauge on the dash was bottomed to the lowest temperature and the electric cooling fans were on full blast. Every time I did a reset it fixed it but it would happen again at least 3 times a week. All of the Cadillac forums had people saying they went to the dealership and had to get the air conditioning fixed. I wasn’t satisfied because with the reboot it still worked. So I did more homework. As it turns out - the 3.6 (LGX) is also installed in the same year(s) Camaros. The difference is most Cadillac owners probably don’t even open their hoods, nonetheless work on their cars. They bring the car to the dealership. Camaro owners do tend to “play with their cars” I’m a diehard hotrodder! I have big block toys, GM toys, Mopar toys and I like fixing things. So I went to a Camaro forum and there it was in print. The answers to the air conditioning problem. With the LGX 3.6 engine. The thermostat is the problem. If you start your vehicle and drive off and the engine doesn’t get up to temperature within a time threshold your BCM and ECM will think the engine is low on coolant and put the vehicle into a default limp mode. It shuts off the air conditioning and runs the fans. Now for more fun. The thermostat is in between bank 1 & 2 at the bottom of the V , under the intake manifold so it’s a costly repair not recommended for a novice. I have yet to take the time to do the job myself but for the meantime. I run the vehicle with the remote start twice before I go anywhere - EVERY-TIME. I’ve been doing so for almost 2 years and I never have a problem. Sorry for the long winded comment but I hope it helps someone…
@@perrybrown8881 I’m glad this was helpful - if it was. That’s a pretty old comment. I have since fixed the problem.

I have cadillac 18 cts , had noise from the transmission, took in to the dealer, they changed transmission fluid which solved that problem, no other issues only have over 9,000 miles, a very good car
I had a 2016 Platinum edition and totally regret to have traded it in. That was a fine vehicle and I've owned many Cads, Lincolns. BMW, MB as well as most American model vehicles
Yes we had this problem with our 2010 Acura Tl. The problem with the AC only happens after an hour or more driving, short trips it works fine.The dealership couldn't find the problem so they changed the blend motor Actuator, after another 6 months the problem came back and they changed the blower motor. Then four months later I same problem I took it back, cuss them out to get it fixed and the finally found the evaporator coil freezing up and replaced it, no more issues now after one year, AC works great
I bought a brand new 2017 Cadillac CT6 when I 1st got it I had air conditioning trouble I took it back to the dealership and they Flash it and put new coolant in the system it was blow Cold and it blow hot.. that tells me why no cooling in the system so they done that AC works fine Had a probably with the transmission took in 3 dynastic with some different types of code flush the transmission took again late for transmission again. I only problem with these transmissions on a these new cars is that they are SEALED TRANSMISSION NEED TO BREATHE THEY ARE MOVING PARTS other than that I'm keeping my 2017 cadillac CT6 I love it... YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE PROBLEMS OUT OF ALL NEW CARS ...........
I have a 2017 CT6 3.0 TT with 36,000 miles.... I have a delayed rough shift from 1st to 2nd gear for about 15mins and after that it smoothes out until I restart the car. The Dealer said 'I would have to deal with it" because GM knows about the problem but will not fix it unless my Transmission fails completely.

Thanks for your update - I have the 2018 CT6 - Traans- bumps 2 to 1 downshift common wuththis 8 speed trans - fixed under warranty and refilled with Mobil 1 HP trans fluid @ 30,000 - I will keep this car (now @ 35,000 miles and will buy an extended warranty! Thanks again for your help.
I got 2016 platinum but every three months engine light comes on for transmission fluid temperature after 24hours the engine light goes out runs fine the entire time 3months later same thing
I love my 2016 CT6. I have owned it since it had 6000 miles on it. That was way back in 2017. Only problem I have had is with the turbos and that was covered by the warranty. It now has 175,000 miles. Joe
I had this issue with a 2017 Colorado. The ac would go out, so I played with it. Turned the ac button on and off and it worked again just fine. Computer issue with the car thinking the line is freezing up even when it's not. Got it reprogrammed and never had the issue again.
I have a 2019 CT6. The only issue I have is that my super cruise stays engaged for maybe 7-10 seconds and disengages. Other than that. I am in love with my CT6. The dealership said it could be several things. But I would have to leave it with them for a few days. Just got to find the time to do that.
WOW! I have the 2020 Blackwing Platinum CT6 also and that was my issue as well. ceiling got wet and they found missing drain tube. They fixed it and no problem since. We have a entire different transmission than others in this thread (10 speed). They have the 8 speed which was engineered wrong!

HI...CADDILAC 😊 MAN ME TO. KEEP YOUR CAT6 CADDY. EVERYONE LOVES MY CADDY & THE RIDE. CT6 3.O TT IS FAST. 😊 ELECT CARS ARE NOT THE WAY TO GO. WISHING THE BEST. 😊
I have found it necessary to put the AC on "recirculat" when the outside temp is above 100. My Toyota does this automatically but my 18 CT6 doesn't do it automatically and it is normally in "fresh air" unless you manually put it in recirculat. I am in TX and it has been over 100 for weeks.
I have had three Cadillac CT6's. 2 2017's each of which never made it to 4000 miles before I got rid of them. Build quality, electrical glitches and the gawdawful 8 speed transmission contributed to the worse new car ownership ever. My 2019 is the identical car with a better 10 speed transmission, which shifts like a normal car. This is an entry level luxury car and cheaply built. In spite of all this, it's a nice looking sedan but loaded with issues that absolutely require bumper to bumper warranty protection.
had 2 CT6's, just the 8 speed transmission, after the fluid changes and flush, no issues..build quality is good, so my question is if you dislike them so much, why do you keep buying them....
its not cheaply built, its actually gotten good reviews on its build quality..you want to see cheaply made, look at any Mercedes Benz..the guy who does interior quality reviews right here shows Benz right from brand new are squeaky and creaky... my 16 CT6 had 28000 miles before trading, no issues with any interior trim, and my 17 that i know have is even better

My family gave my grandpa a XTS, and it has the same air conditioning problem, for 8 years, it just never stoped, I thought it was the problem that the car was produced in china so it would have these issue, but according to you, it seems like that’s also the case within states, anyway, even when it’s working, the air isn’t cool enough, and in where I’m from summer can be as hot as Miami, lucky that my grandpa is 70 years old and don’t really need that much cool air, but still the car itself is great, 8 years with very little issue compare to a bmw, and i am now considering to buy a used ct6 as my first car.
I own a 2017 ct6 3.0tt. I've had shuttering issues. I took it to the dealer. They flushed the transmission fluid and put new fluid in. It still shifts a little hard in 1st gear when you first start up but rides find after that. Thanks for the info. I'm glad I still have warranty. I once own a 2014 cts 2.0t and had no issues at all
Add a 2017 CT6 3.0 HB transmission problems when you 1st drive it and shifts out at 1st then I traded it on a 2020 CT6 with the 10 speed Definitely stay away from the 16 and the 17 I don't know about the 18 but the 19 But the twenty's It's the best of the bunch want to get a 2020 CT6 blackring but I just can't see that kind of money Now is the worst time to buy a car These dealers are really ripping people off and they're gonna be so buried in the cars they'll never be able to trade them In
I own a 2014 cts. Had it for several years. It's at 175k brought at 27k. Used it for various reasons such as long distance out of town trips, 1 year for deliveries, race, and last couple years as my daily driver. It has transmission shurdder and jerks into Drive gear from a cold start. Its been this way for many years but the car drives well besides that. I haven't had any major issues. So i assume these issues may seem alarming but is no harm and the car could last you for many years. Like mines has. _If i could go back i wouldn't used it for deliveries or race, that beats the car up and make for earlier maintenance let alone the unessairy miles._ *Else this car is a 10/10 you get your* money worth.
@blessethishe thanks for the 411. I had a 2014 cts and it ran like a champ with no issues at all, but the mileage was low when I traded it in. 52k for my ct6. The dealer fixed my ct6. Almost anyway. It 85% better than it was. They said all 8 speed transmissions made by gm is that way. They showed me the bulletin.
@@tonysmith5051 a slight jerk or shurdder should be tolerable as long as the transmission doesn't go out or car go into limp. *How many miles was the CTS when you traded it in and how many miles came on the CT6?* My dealer has a 2019 ct6 TT in crystal white. They been servicing my cts for years and want me to trade/ upgrade to the CT6 2019. Which is the better looking gen with those upside down *L* like day time running lights.
This was very informative, I may just get a genisis 🤷♂️ I want something to keep for years. Would you reccomend the 2019-2020 ct6 as a daily driver for long term use? Great content and information in your video im happy to have subscribed!
I have the 2019 CT6 platinum. I bought it brand new 3 yrs ago, I’m at 36,000 miles and so far I haven’t had any issues. It’s always been said never buy a first gen car because normally they have problems in the first few years. That’s the very reason I waited until the 19’s and 20’s dropped. It’s a very good car.
I have a 2017 ct6 3.6l and the transmission also shifts alittle rough 1 - 2 gear but is smooth the rest. Does anyone have the same problem and could you recommend a fix?
Not sure if you did it yet, but the trans fluid needs changing. The factory fluid is bad, and it can damage the transmission over time. There’s a class action lawsuit ongoing
I’ve had the air conditioning issues seems like after a long trip 4/5hr drive something happens with AC I’ve taken it to dealership they say it’s all good
Are you the Owner of the car? Or paying monthly? I believe if you out right own the vehicle, you, can have anyone work on the car as long as you trust them and agree to it. But if you don't then of course insurance will be picky on how to fix the vehicle.
@@Jaycrew2010 yes I did order the new Cadillac lyric bouncing back and forth on what I want to keep my CT6 or continue to be patient with waiting on the Cadillac Lyriq
I bought the Cadillac 2018 with 15521 miles took it off the next day after bringing it back I have the brake system fail I haven't get it back over a month now what do you suggest
So there's "nothing wrong with the CT6"..............but the AC doesn't work sometimes, the transmission whines, and there's a "preferred provider" scam that you'll have to pay a premium for. OK.
It depends on year and model of GM vehicle. I had a 2011 Camaro LS (V6) for ten years. Only had to replace the alternator and the battery. Had AC Delco rotors & pads installed and went through two sets of tires. Other than that no real problems with it. I've also owned a 2004 Cavalier coupe, no problems with that car either. The CT6 is really nice but hearing about these issues will probably keep me from buying one. What do you guys think of the 2016 CTS 3.6L? Any thoughts? It's smaller than the CT6 but same or similar engine.
@@CadillacDriven I guess they make the right hand drive you Musta got a good deal. I’ve never seen anything like that in the US. Do you know a Cadillac. Very cool
I own the 2017 CT6 Great car except for the transmission shipping out of 1st gear and the hood the paint Faded real bad then the roof started to go then the trunk I get rid of it and bought a used are they used 2023.6 with the 10th big beautiful car that I noticed on an etherhood they had a shield evidently the heat on black did something to the paint but the car was nice until the squirrel sides wiped me so I liked the world I went out and bought a 2020 CT4V type and I love it it's a little small but it's a kick ass cards all there I would like to get a 2020 CT6 black ring but I can't see it explain that kind of muddy at at my age I'll keep my 84 Riviera and use that for a Top down cruiser

I have a 2017 ct6 3.6l and the transmission also shifts alittle rough 1 - 2 gear but is smooth the rest. Does anyone have the same problem and could you recommend a fix?
Not sure if you did it yet, but the trans fluid needs changing. The factory fluid is bad, and it can damage the transmission over time. There’s a class action lawsuit ongoing
I need a front headlight for a 2020 Cadillac ct6
I’ve had the air conditioning issues seems like after a long trip 4/5hr drive something happens with AC I’ve taken it to dealership they say it’s all good
Go to settings go to climate and select air quality out settin on high will fix problem
Any reason to flip the video so it looks like you drive a right-hand steering car?
Mine the thermostat housing went bad bringing on the engine light. At 62000 miles
Will fix it but don’t know what else will come up
Luv Cadillac)
Are you the Owner of the car? Or paying monthly? I believe if you out right own the vehicle, you, can have anyone work on the car as long as you trust them and agree to it. But if you don't then of course insurance will be picky on how to fix the vehicle.
Yes i am A proud owner
@@CadillacDriven in that case you can have whom ever you want to fix your car and the insurance must still pay.
Bro. Do you have steering week on the other size like in the UK? 😅
... the* steering wheel*
How much was it to fix the transmission?
So Onstar does not help diagnose those issues?
I liked and subscribed
Great information! I am thinking of getting me a CT6. How is the car running now?
It's good My Cadillac 2018 CT6 Is Running Like I Just Bought It I Love It!!!!!
@@CadillacDriven Did you order the new Lyriq?
@@Jaycrew2010 yes I did order the new Cadillac lyric bouncing back and forth on what I want to keep my CT6 or continue to be patient with waiting on the Cadillac Lyriq
Cool, can’t wait to see and hear how you feel about it. Hopefully excited!
@@Jaycrew2010 thanks I'm definitely going to do a video if I can wait that long LOL because I like CT6 is so awesome
I bought the Cadillac 2018 with 15521 miles took it off the next day after bringing it back I have the brake system fail I haven't get it back over a month now what do you suggest
Yikes. Parts are getting hard to find. Are they saying parts they need are on backorder?
Just be patient and if they can take care of it. It should still be under warranty. Keep me posted on the progress.
Those are my favorite year and model car
I have a CT6 2018 Cadillac that top of my reservoir cracked a little 😢 what should I do?
let the dealership fix it
@@antmor1234That’s hella expensive
How to get the ac blowing air directly at you
So there's "nothing wrong with the CT6"..............but the AC doesn't work sometimes, the transmission whines, and there's a "preferred provider" scam that you'll have to pay a premium for.
OK.
They changed due may work oil in transmission fixed put air cond in auto it started up then cool
why is the driver on the wrong side of the driver's seat??
Damn, those are HUGE problems. You are lucky you didn't have to drop thousands on that Transmission. That's GM for you.
It would have still been under warranty
It depends on year and model of GM vehicle. I had a 2011 Camaro LS (V6) for ten years. Only had to replace the alternator and the battery. Had AC Delco rotors & pads installed and went through two sets of tires. Other than that no real problems with it. I've also owned a 2004 Cavalier coupe, no problems with that car either. The CT6 is really nice but hearing about these issues will probably keep me from buying one. What do you guys think of the 2016 CTS 3.6L? Any thoughts? It's smaller than the CT6 but same or similar engine.
Is your car somehow right drive?
yes
@@CadillacDriven I guess they make the right hand drive you Musta got a good deal.
I’ve never seen anything like that in the US. Do you know a Cadillac. Very cool

I own the 2017 CT6 Great car except for the transmission shipping out of 1st gear and the hood the paint Faded real bad then the roof started to go then the trunk I get rid of it and bought a used are they used 2023.6 with the 10th big beautiful car that I noticed on an etherhood they had a shield evidently the heat on black did something to the paint but the car was nice until the squirrel sides wiped me so I liked the world I went out and bought a 2020 CT4V type and I love it it's a little small but it's a kick ass cards all there I would like to get a 2020 CT6 black ring but I can't see it explain that kind of muddy at at my age I'll keep my 84 Riviera and use that for a
Top down cruiser
Nonsense I don't believe what he is saying about the body shop & the ct6
As much as I like the CT6, I would NEVER buy a Cadillac thst isn't on manufacturer's warranty.
I'm not trying to sound like I'm the richest person ever but Cadillacs are reliable if u have the money for maintenence
I agree@@ithinkihaveebola5238
I agree and with the new electric escalade I plan on leasing till I'm 80 years old. that way I'll never have to worry about fixing anything.
