checked mine, air in it, cap kinda did a pop off, I see a little puddle in the tube, I remember when I checked it when I first got the car and it was filled to that O ring.

Just literally did it this weekend as well. And I am far from a seasoned mechanic....

I had to actually squeeze the hose turn the key on and off until it finally started cycling correctly. Just don't want you do deal with the crap I went through with mine. Good luck brother!

Your CTS does not have a cowl 1" away from the rear lid bolts...

Its not a hard job (done it twice) but it is not as easy to access as the V and 2 hours is pushing it. Best thing to do is lower the front craddle and adding spacers makes this really fun!

Upon further inspection, LOL
We have 5 attachment points for the red engine cover correct? 2 on each side and one in the front? The front "STUD" is missing, I have to go back tomorrow.

The front stud is missing! My dealer did the same thing. Start to finish it took them 2.5 hours including bleeding the system.
