Hi Robert.
How often do you need to change your fuel filter? Always check your owner's manual to see what the vehicle manufacturer's recommended guidelines are for fuel filter replacement. Sources online estimate filters should be replaced as soon as every 20,000 up to 40,000 miles or more.
What are the symptoms of a bad fuel filter?Symptoms of a bad fuel filter. One typical example of a restricted fuel filter is a vehicle that cuts out or loses power driving up an incline, such as a bridge. Under load, fuel demand increases and a clogged fuel filter reduces the needed flow. As the fuel filter gets dirty, the fuel pump works much harder.
How do you fix a clogged fuel filter?Clean Filter. Spray the filter on each side with carburetor cleaner and then tap it against a hard surface to knock debris loose. Repeat the process several times until the fuel filter is in acceptable condition. Let the filter dry for one hour and then reinstall it.

SOURCE: Replacing front turn signal bulb on 2006 Cadillac SRX

wow i feel sorry for you because Cadillac designed this bulb to be a don't get to bulb but OK here's what you do take the bottom cover off or skid plastic panel under neath the front end theirs little plastic clips holding it on just get come dikes and don't cut them but just use it to help pull them out. after you get that off use a flash light and locate your light housing you should see two screws holding the house in i think those screws are 8mm i cant remember remove those two screws and be careful the metal from the bumper cuts you pull the light housing out and remove all the screws around the housing and open the housing up replace the bulb and make sure your contact to the bulbs clean and then reassemble the way you took apart. if you cant get it well then best bet is take it somewhere i know Cadillac charges an arm and a leg so you can go somewhere else.

SOURCE: Changing fuel filter on 2004 Cadillac SRX

If you go to the auto parts store they should have a fuel line disconnect tool that has a 5/16ths end an a 3/8ths end. The tool is shaped like an X. Before you start you need to pull the fuel pump fuse under the front of the REAR passenger side seat while the car is running and let it stall. it will release the built up pressure. This is important unless you want gas to spray every where. Then take the tool and start with the end of the filter with two lines. Place the appropriate end of the tool over the smallest inlet, push the tool in then pull the line towards the filter and then push the line away and it should disconnect. Do the same with line above. Then you can use the two appropriate size wrenches to disconnect the outlet end. reconnecting the new filter is simple just make sure your quick connect lines click in all the way and you tighten the outlet line well, I think its like 22 or 25 ft/lbs.

How do you change the fuel pum on cadillac srx 2004 (4.6 L)? Is the gas gauge connected to the fuel pump? Thanks

You have to drop the fuel tank to access the fuel pump and sending unit. Yes the fuel pump and gauge sending unit are separate but connect together in one assembly.

How do I change the left running light on a 2005 Cadi SRX?

Hi there,
Open the hood and look behind the head lamps, there should be a wire or two going into a unit that is connected to the head lamp. You should be able to reach in there and you will probable have to turn the unit left or right and pull it out. Your light buld will be connected to it. Take the bulb to a local parts store and they will match it. The same is for all the lights. Hope this help you out. Let me know. Have a great night.~MWD
