2009 Cadillac SLS Service and Repair Manual

Built in Shanghai for Chinese buyers, the 2009 Cadillac SLS was the final model year before the late-2009 facelift, a China-market long-wheelbase version of the STS with extra rear legroom for chauffeured owners. The 2009 car kept the original engines: 2.8-liter and 3.6-liter DOHC V6s plus the 4.6-liter Northstar V8, all with rear-wheel drive. It shares much with the US STS but not its body length, interior or market equipment, which is why year-exact data matters. This service and repair manual covers the 2009 SLS with procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams, diagnostics and maintenance schedules.
