- I changed the fuel filter on my 2005 Cadillac STS in under 20 minutes. My car had a slight hesitation but still had power, after the filter change she is smooth as ever. The Cadillac SRX is pretty much the same steps.

I had the volume off until the moment I saw you take your shoe off to start the car. RESPECT is shown in such a manner. New subscriber just because of that. Oh and great information. Thank you.

So far this is been the best video on a fuel filter swap for the Cadillac. Very well done keep up the great work man
I really appreciate you watching my video and then taking the time to give me a compliment. Thanks.
Thank you! I was able to change my fuel filter with ease after watching your video.
Dude I appreciate your attention to detail on this video! I wish more people did car videos like you !
Very good, I bought an 08 in May this year and I am replacing the filters one by one. Videos like yours help a lot . Thank you.
You're welcome and thanks for the comment.
Great video, I really liked how clear your instructions are and that you have great footage to help me know what to look for. Thanks!
David Moore I'm glad my video helped you. I appreciate you letting me know. Thanks for watching and you're welcome.
Lol @ "added bonus". I love this guy. Good video man. My "engine power reduced" message just came on, the mechanic said something about the fuel pressure. Thanks for the video
This goes down as some of the best youtube instructional content I have ever seen. excellent job on that and thanks for the info. I hope that the fuel pump is my issue. I have a hesitation from go at green light. Recently replaced purge valve , alternator, plugs and coils. I do also have bad motor mounts and i hope that isnt shaking loose everything that could go wrong.
Great tutorial. I changed my fuel filter thanks to you and I feel like a genius
I own a 2005 sts v8 love the car and when i have problems i look up ur vids awsome stuff bro!!! Helps me a lot
Do u still have your caddilac???
Great video and I can see this is a very simple process with the right tools! You made it very easy...
I appreciate you watching, and I thank you for the nice comment.
Appreciate you bruh and glad I found the channel. There aren't many videos dedicated to the sts for repairs..subbed
basslinin I appreciate it, that's why I uploaded the video because I couldn't find that much myself. Thanks.
I like the way your video is made. I consider myself an expert diy'er, I came to this channel just to find out where the filter was located. I could find it by looking myself, but in planning to work on the car and buying all the parts I just wanted to see what I'm in for. I think the way you go through each step is very concise. Of course you're giving me more information that I personally need, but I do see where if someone else was less experienced your advice would help them.
Very informative! Thank you for going the extra mile and showing us the old one.
Thank you and you're welcome.
This helped out a lot man. I’m changing the fuel filter on my car. Thank you.
Great video. I'm not sure if I'm going to attempt to do my own as just regular maintenance. I'm at 97k. Rock auto parts is a great source for factory filters/parts. Can you please show exactly how you cleaned the throttle body. That is one I think I'm going to try myself. No problems just keeping it well maintained. Also have you had any problems/issues other than the codes you outlined and how did you fix them? Great job!
Just had this happen to my 2004 CTS, good info. That was my problem, car runs 200% better. Thank you!
Really enjoyed the simplicity of your videos. I heard it was difficult to change the headlight bulbs, I wonder if you could make it look as simple as the the rest.
+Henry Franklin thanks I appreciate the comment. My wife wants me to change the lower lights the ones in the front bumper so I might do it, but I do have a video on how I took the front bumper off already. If you start this video at 5 minutes I show the bumper removal. Thanks for watching

This was a great video, very helpful with details. Thanks for your hard work.
I've gotta say, I love these videos man! One question for ya', do you know if that's the same for a 98 sts?
Awesome video man Im going to change my fuel filter myself. I think you might have just saved me from missing a full day of work
Thanks for the video bro. I have been feeling a vibration through the my cadillac at idle it seems to have a slight hesitation on pick up. I will try this & see if it works. thanks again for the nice video. keep up the good work.
I appreciate you watching and you're welcome. The fuel filter is one of the steps I would do. I would also clean the throttle body and either get the injectors cleaned or use one of those fuel additives. Here is a link on cleaning the throttle body. Thanks again.

Thank you so much for this video. Not the hero we asked but the hero we needed. Bless u
Excellent video! '07 Cadillac DTS with 206k miles on it! These videos help a lot
Glad to be of service. I almost bought the DTS, that a nice car with room and power. If you're going to change the filter you might what to clean the throttle body also, here is a link to that video if you haven't already watched it. th-cam.com/video/mTiAYGHEeHs/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching.
Great vid. I learned just what I needed to know. Well done young man.
I have this same model car and have appreciated the repair videos!! Thanks man!
Glad I could help you out. Thanks for watching.
great vid, very through and professional. thanks!
so glad i found your video, i have a 05 sts 3.6l gonna change the filter in the morning, love these STS's
Thanks, I appreciate you watching and the STS isone of my favorite cars I have ever owned.
oxmanagain my last car was a benz and i dont miss it lol
Robert carew haha people don't understand how nice these are.
oxmanagain thats for sure, not to mention the power.
I just finished changing my fuel filter. Cadillac 2006 STS 4 3.6L. Keep up the good work!
Where is it. What were your symptoms
@@terrencemayes469 I didn't notice anything until I changed the fuel filter. The strange engine hiccups vanished and there's definitely better acceleration and a bit better fuel consumption.
@@dennissirvent6965 thanks. What Mpg are you averaging. I just got it yesterday it says cylinder 3 and 5 at first. I change all 6 plugs and 3 coils on the passenger side. Still doing it maybe I should change 3 and 5 cylinder plugs again.
@@terrencemayes469 Maybe 17 Mpg if I don't do much city driving. 22-23 highway Mpg alone. My car has 110000 miles on it, so I was thinking of changing the plugs and coils soon. Maybe that'll solve the startup issues I have every so often.
@@dennissirvent6965 true. Mines have 112,000 on it
I found your video extremely informative and beneficial. Thanks.
I glad it helped, thanks for watching.
Great video! Thank you for your time and expertise. This is gonna help me save tons of money! Best help video I've seen in all categories
Thanks for the video, you explain everything very clearly.
You're welcome and thanks for watching.
Excellent
Do you have a video on changing transfer case fluid and or differential fluid?
Regards
Doron
thanks that was the most descriptive way to change a filter I've seen so far and it appears to be the same way on a deville
+david lindsay I appreciate the compliment and I think you for letting me know that the Deville is the same. Thanks for watching
👨🏾🔧Thanks! I changed mine in no time! Thanks to you! SALUTE ✊🏾
Great video! I have a 2005 STS V8. Getting error code P0446. I can't seem to find any vacuum leaks. I have replaced EVAP solenoid, air filter, gas cap, and one shady vacuum hose behind the back of the valve cover. I sometimes get a hesitation when making a right turn with sudden accelration. I let off the gas and reaccelerate with no problem. I am looking to replace the fuel filter. I was wondering what you thought. Should I be looking at the charcoal canister or valve replacement? Pre Cat sensors are faily new. Thanks!
I did some research and one of these 2 links might shine some light on your problem. Blowtorch that's funny, let me know the outcome.

I always like a bonus! Thanx Man!
+Contiki Cartier thanks for watching
Thanks big guy great video. Really appreciate the location of the fuel pump relay. Take care. 2004 Caddy CTS 3.6
+Jack S. Thanks for watching, I'm glad it helped
well, I have 2007 CTS. The difference here is, the removal tool will not fit between the filter and the fuel line on 5/16 side. I had seen several notes related to having had to grind the tool down to size, but I just eyeballed it (about 1/4 to be removed) and took a hack saw to it (probably about half the time as grinding, and lots easier). Too, there is a retainer that holds the filter in place on the 2007, with one 10mm screw that holds the retainer to the body. Getting the old filter out of this retainer and new one in is really more than a thought but just don't baby it and it will go both ways. I used channel locks to help start the removal. Put little oil on new one to help get it started. Took a bit both ways but it will go.
That is pretty impressive that you did all of that. Thanks for watching and sharing your story and tips.
Nice tutorial, thanks man very useful!
Thanks again for your time & your great instructions.
You're welcome and thanks for watching.
Thank you this was very helpful God bless you Chef Eli out
Thanks for the blessing and for watching, glad it helped you out.
Awesome video, changing my ⛽ Filter with Olympic Speed soon . I have 109,200 miles on 05' STS, I am 2nd owner🚗🙏.Thanks for the knowledge God👍
Is this the same for a 2008 Cadillac cts 3.6 base model?
Awesome video. Loved the added bonus!!
Thanks for watching. I appreciate your comment.
Can you work on adjusting a gear shift adjusting linkage nut,my Cadillac is 2006 STS and I'm having a hard time putting it in the park but I'd rather check the gear shift linkage first as well as the bearings
Very good video. Thank you. Now I can do this for my CTS
You're welcome and let me know how it turns out. Thanks for watching.
you're a boss thank you for making this video
Would the same technique work on my 2009 DTS ?
I wonder if this would apply to my 2013 ATS.
I have a Cadillac CTS 2009 is it done the same exact way?
most informative video ive seen. thanks for the help
Thank you and I appreciate you watching.
Excellent video thanks for sharing
Good video. I don't have a Cadillac but I enjoyed watching this video anyway.
Thanks and you're welcome.
Thanks man this helped me a lot, exactly what I needed
Glad to have helped and thanks for watching.
How to loosen a rusty nut on the outgoing side of a fuel filter,my car is a 2004 Cadillac Srx,I have saturated it with WD-40 still can 't get it apart. Any suggestions
Great video sir, just what I was looking for, Thank you!
Thanks and you're welcome.

so far I've only done oil changes on 06 my sts. would a beginner like me be able to successfully pull this job off if I follow your advice exactly? also these videos are awesome. I appreciate it and keep em coming. stay up my g.
+P Ramos if you follow the steps exactly and give yourself plenty of time and don't rush I think it should not be a problem. If at any time you are not 100% sure just stop. As usual thanks
Thanks oxmanagain, great easy explanation and clear video some people make it so difficult to see and understand but You are right on, much appreciate You I have a 2015 srx and will check it tomorrow thanks again Tucson Tim
Great Informative video. I do have question. I have a 2009 Cadillac cts 3.6 awd. I was wondering if you know where my fuel filter is, is it in the same place as your car. Thanks for your help.
Not sure, sorry.
This guy is an excellent teacher!!!!!
Thank you I'm glad I was able to help. I appreciate your time thanks for watching.
@@oxmanagain You should teach for a living brother!!
Do you still have the caddy? And the pump is one hell of a thing to replace
This was a big help in changing the fuel filter on my 2005 Cadillac cts. Did yours have a bracket to hold the filter?
Yes, but just a small one.
Thank YOU for this! I think this is whats wrong with mine. Got an alert saying to check my gas cap and the car is hesitating. Do you have any videos and suggestions for "Service Air Bag light?" and a video on changing the thermostat? I found it and see it but do not wish to fight it if i dont have to haha...
Haha that's funny about fighting it if you don't have to, I get that. I haven't had to deal with the airbag yet and the did change my thermostat I just didn't film it. I did film my water pump which is next to the thermostat, might give you an idea maybe. Good luck and thanks for watching.
Here is the link to the water pump video. Just in case.

I have the 2005 3.6L SRX, same filter though. Thanks for the walk-thru.
The fun part is finding the quick disconnect tool, somewhere in the rest of my tools. Because the plastic ones don't work. Lol
Do you know where location for cadillac srx 2012 fuel filter?
I try to find video but never see it.
Thanks
You've saved me time & $$$ on my 04 sls.....Thanks.
rick22908 You're welcome and thanks for watching.
I also have watched your videos and they have helped me out a lot! I have the same car (2005 STS4 4.6L v8) I am having trouble locating the two 02 sensors that are before the CATs coming from the engine. Do you know how to get to them?
Sometimes it's difficult seeing those from the top you have to get under the car. Jack the car up nice and high and look from underneath. Make sure to use some great jack stands.
thankyou,you saved me a lot of time
Great video man.. Im about to replace the filter on my 2005 SRX.. Should be very similar to your CTS.. But yeah great video.. 👍
I watched several of your videos. Very helpful. I have a question about the switch on the left side of the steering column that operates the up and down, in and out motion of the steering wheel. Mine isn’t working anymore. Any suggestions that you might have for me?
Sorry, I sold the car a few years ago and I never had to deal with that.
Well done video. Great detail
Thank you.
Love ur video! Very helpful
You're welcome, it's always nice to hear that one of my videos helped. Thanks for watching.
Thank you bro, I'm going to do this on my 2005 cts, because the other day the car suddenly stalls. I think the filter is the factory original one.
Awesome attention to detail thank you sir
Have you every switched the fuel pump
Good video, I just watched one on changing the cabin air filter, gas station wanted 115 to change it, I don't begrudge anyone a living but to change cabin air filters it's a rip off! 17.00 bucks for filter and about 15 mins. Fuel filter looks a little more diff and I don't I like getting under a car! Thanks.
Thanks for watching and I understand.
Thanks man. Great video! 👍🏻
Great video. Thanks
love your car is so clean!!!!!!!!
Great video. Really helpful. Except the disconnect tool in your link is not the same one you’re using. You linked an ARES and you’re using an OEM.
I got an OEM from AutoZone but it was different. The one I got goes as small 3/8” and it won’t work. I actually snapped it in half trying to force it. I’ll go buy a different one tomorrow. I believe the size you’re using that worked is 5/16”
man u made a good video. Bro i change. My filter. Monday. Thank u
K.c. Bodybuilding Thanks for watching and let me know how it turns out.
Hey man. My high pressure fuel pump is making a clicking noise for months now and was wondering if u know about that similar issue. It’s a 3.6 though. It’s on the driver side behind the engine near the fire wall and rapidly clicks when I rev and clicks normal when I idle it. Going to replace the fuel filter and hoping there’s less pressure, stress and stop the over heating of the HPFP. Would you happen to know anything about that or think that sounds like a good idea. Doing this this weekend.
That is a new one for me. I've never heard any clicking noise or anything like that from my fuel pump. Are you sure that's the fuel pump? I thought the fuel pump was in the fuel tank?
Thanks. that was great easy well explained !!
Thanks, glad it helped. You're welcome.
I need your help!!! How do replace just the cooling fan? I watched the video of the radiator you did, but there wasn’t much on how to take out the fans...
Sorry, that is the only time and video I have on the fans. What area are you stuck on? What steps do you need?
Thank You Sir... I can go change mine with confidence
You're welcome. I'm glad you feel that way now. Thanks for watching.
Does this work for a cts 07?
Nice job man!! Thank you!!
Thanks for sharing man!!
You're welcome and I hope it helped.
Good video, man! Thanks.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
thanks so much bro. finally got my shit running again after two months of being stuck!
Two months is a long time, I'm happy with you. You're welcome and thanks for letting me know.
Did you have a code related to this fuel pump?
Ha thanks alot, so when l'm working on this car for my wife, l look you up and you are a lot of help. Thank you very much your a lot of help to me. Have a great weekly
You're welcome and thanks for watching. If you ever have a question feel free to ask.
excellent video !
Thanks for watching.
Just purchase a 2005 STS 86000 miles on it service vehicle soon light is on. Kind of rough when it starts but rides well once warmed up and has pick up on the highway. Decided to check oil found out it was 3 quarts low which is unusual. Light went off but came back on still a little rough but not as bad from a cold start. Going to give it a complete oil change and plugs to see if warning light stays off an engine Mellows out. Previous owner said he service the car regularly but with three quarts low I'm suspicious. What do you think?
Nice car, first off. I agree with you about a little suspicious but you never know. I would pour in a fuel system cleaning bottle to just see if that smooths out the engine, it did for me. Then I would clean the throttle body. I made a video on that on the STS. th-cam.com/video/mTiAYGHEeHs/w-d-xo.html
Let me know the outcome. Good buy, enjoy your ride.
that's awesome man I've also have a Cadillac sts to but mines is a v6 I've been watching your videos about the cadillac and you've been teaching me a lot about thanks man @oxmanagain
+lil assassin thanks for watching and I appreciate your comments, glad I can help.
How could I get in touch with you bro I have a 2006 sts v8 and I have a few questions you seem to know what you doing
Good video thanks man
Hello dear. my car is cadillac cts 2009 and i have a problem in the engine. the engine always vibration. I changed spark plug coil spark plugs and evap system but the problem still with me. So what i have to do
I would use a pour in fuel treatment and also clean your throttle body. Here is a link to the video where I show you how to clean the throttle body. th-cam.com/video/mTiAYGHEeHs/w-d-xo.html
Would this be the same exact process for a 2005 Cadillac CTS 2.8L ?
Yes, they use the same fuel filter from the research I did.
