hmmm. My dealer said they were not available...on backorder.

There are many Cadillac's with well over 100,000 miles without incident. Just because something can go wrong, doesn't mean it will go wrong.

My dealer ordered the replacement supercharger, and a replacement master cylinder reservoir. A Gm rep has to come out to inspect the insert and exhaust, but my dealer manger said they will order that stuff when the rep gets there as its visibly damaged. Also said there is a mylink update that they will do when I bring it back for the other stuff.

Just be glad to get rid of the noise from under hood.

I don't know about that, I was there this morning and haven't heard back from them, so I assume the order went through.

Oh it will.. it will! The ones with over 100,000 miles are probably the same guys that probably never pop the Hood to hear what's actually going on. I'll stick with my opinion, it makes more sense...

No issues at all with it.

After 8 hours of fun highway driving this weekend, the SC worsened, the rattling is accompagnied by a squeal. The SC getting replaced today and just on time. This problem may be worse then what GM claims and should probably become a recall instead.

The replacement supercharger is so quiet compared to the original and the performance is so much better. This is how it should have been since day one. I am much happier.

I just took mine to the dealer and have the replacement on order. No issues.

jwl013 · 07-07-2014, 08:00 PM

I took mine in last week. 2 days Later I had it back with the new one. No issues with and it sounds much better

Also still had rubber on the rear fenders and part of the number paint from my last track visit. No questions asked. Didn't intend to just remembered it when I got it back.

Glad Y'all are so lucky. My dealer took 5 days and damaged my car at the same time. What a great dealer eh!

Does anyone have any actual data that performance is better with the replacement blower. Track times, dyno numbers, datalog?
