Any AWD Non-STS4s?
There is a 2007 STS for sale in my local area.
The dealer swears it is all-wheel drive, but it doesn't have an STS4 badge. I've never seen a non-4 AWD option. What do you guys think? JJ |
In 2007, you could get the V6 with or without AWD. A V8 was also available.
If you're uncertain, a quick trip up on a lift will uncover the truth. Somebody could've debadged it; I took the emblems off my AWD CTS. |
What would I look for, underneath?
Also, it has a normal STS badge. It doesn't look like a 4 was ever there. I guess someone could have removed it and replaced it with a normal badge. I wasn't sure if there was an easy indicator (like part of the VIN, the door sticker, etc...). JJ |
Look for a transfer case , differential, or drive axles to the front wheels.
You could check the RPO codes on the spare tire cover; I believe MX0 is RWD & MX7 is AWD. Or get the VIN and call a Caddy dealer-they could verify it. If the guy is not being honest about THAT, who knows what else he's lying about. Good luck! |
Thanks for the information.
I don't think it's an issue of honesty. It's a consignment dealer and I think he is just basing it off what he was told. I just want to prove it, for my own benefit. JJ |
There are more 2WD Cadillac cars than AWD except maybe in 'snow country". If you get the vin or at least the last 8 characters., local dealer can tell you if car is 2wd or awd, warranty status, and any recalls or policies before you buy.
