Please help? My cadillac is down:(
 

First apologize my bad english.
My hope is that anyone here can guess whats wrong with my car since the closest mechanical is 30 miles away.
I have a cadillac CTS-03, Yesterday when I was out driving my car just stopped, all lights and things in the car worked but the engine just shut down after I have drove about 20 kilometers.
When i tried to start it again the startengine worked but it didnt started. I waited about 15 mintues and the car started again, I could drove about 4-5 kilometers and same thing again, waited 15 minutes and it worked for a couple of kilometers again.

I tried it today again, and it first worked for about 20 kilometers and then it died, waited about 15 mintues and it worked for a few kilometers and so on, so obviously it goes a bit further when the engine is cold!? But at the end of the drive today a yellow lamp showed up, it looks like a airplane engine and is placed in the upper right of panel.

Please help me out here since repairing in Sweden is extremly expensive if you have a cadillac since there are just a few mecahnicalplaces that can take them.

Please help me if you have any idea what can be wrong.
Hope I posted in the right cathegory?

Sincerely

Mathias

we need you to pull CODES.
go to our FAQ and see how that is done.

do you have a owner's manual? a Factory Service Manual?

Really sorry but i dont undrstand how to pull any codes. What codes is it you need and were can i find them?
Yes I do have an owners manual, unfortunately i thought it would be best to keep it inside my house, and now i cant find it.
I know im messy:(. But it would be a real help if someone could have any idea what it can be, some guy told me it could be the carnk position sensor? Dont really know what that is.
Any ideas someone?

You will need scanner or code reader to access codes. Crank sensor is located on engine block, near oil filter although connector is behind left head.
