Caddy Mechanic Northstar:Detroit
 

Hi gang,
I've got a 02 SLS with Northstar engine with 176K on the clock. The symptoms are: it overheats.

The engine needs work or to be replaced. (I had it into AutoLab) The determination after test showed exhaust had coolant in such.

OK, I know it needs to be overhauled. Yet I have had pricing that is way out of the park (Autolab wanted 8K which included some powersteering work too). D&S Engine in Troy, MI wants about$6K

I'm more than willing to spend good money yet my budget is about tops: 4K for this operation.

Other than that, my SLS looks like new!

If you know of a private party or shop that is not only highly qualified and fussy but also reasonable, please let me know.
Thanks!

Anyone have any word on "Cadillac Doctor" in Youngstown OH?

What about a remanufactured engine from Jasper? Go to the site, find an installer, get a quote, etc. You might save some money over a rebuild.
