Power steering hoses leaks, and oil pan gasket leaks I have oil in the street and in my drive way/garage because the power steering hoses are leaking they will only repair some VIN # cars for the power steering. Oil pan gasket on the oil pan is leaking I have found out there is no recall but gm have being having problem with these 4. 6l norstar engine oil pans gaskets for a long time this is a major problem because they have issue-- bulletin no. : 03-06-01-027a that state you must remove the engine to do the repair this is very costly this is also a environmental issue this should be a recall issue.

Started with a few drops of oil from under engine, keeps getting worse. Dripping oil getting on exhaust or other hot fixture and burning smell comes into passenger compartment unless air reicirc is turned on. I took it to the dealer and the diagnosis was a leaking gasket behind the oil filter housing . I replaced that gasket and oil still leaking from the oil pan engine housing . Have been told the gasket at the pan is bad and to fix the motor will need to be removed @ apx. $3,000. Cadillac dealer and gm knew about this problem in 06. But no recall . I've spoke to a couple of other Dts owners and they have the same problem and from the reports here and on other sites I cannot believe this hasn't been made a recall. Just type in Cadillac Dts oil leaks on the internet and you will see the problems with these cars.
