Tune-Ups to Help Your Cadillac CTS Run Better

Is it tune-up time? If you're the type of driver who waits for something to go wrong with your vehicle, it could be time for a new way of doing things, especially if you want your 2012 Cadillac CTS’s engine to last for a long time. Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your CTS. They're designed to help your engine start easier and run more efficiently, so you can enjoy improved fuel economy and lower emissions. When you follow the guidelines specified by Cadillac for your vehicle’s tune-up schedule, you can rest assured you’re investing in your CTS’s long-term engine performance.

Cadillac CTS Engine Tune-Up Services

Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Cadillac CTS engine tune-up services. The standard Firestone Tune-Up is one service option. This includes the installation of new spark plugs and a visual inspection of your engine’s components, plus a lifetime warranty on parts*. The second service focuses on your CTS's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter. Yet another service is a fuel system cleaning process, which involves removing varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits that have built up inside the fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate in your CTS. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s performance). Keep in mind that your CTS's mileage and maintenance history can uniquely impact its tune-up needs. A one-size-fits-all engine tune-up procedure doesn’t necessarily exist. Talk to a technician about your driving style, mileage, and service history to learn more about your vehicle's specific needs.

Where to Get a Cadillac CTS Tune-Up

If you’re looking for 2012 CTS engine tune-up services, head to Firestone Complete Auto Care. Follow Cadillac's recommended maintenance schedule or book an appointment as soon as you notice one of the following: shaking while the engine is idling, poor fuel economy, knocking noises in the engine, or a lit up check engine light on your dashboard.

2012 Cadillac CTS Engine Tune-Up Q&A

  • When should Cadillac CTS spark plugs be replaced? Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Without the spark of electricity created by spark plugs, your engine doesn’t have the combustion it needs to start — which could leave you stranded on the road. Always replace your spark plugs on time based on Cadillac’s recommendations.
  • What does a puddle underneath my Cadillac CTS mean? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Cadillac CTS. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.
  • What do hard starts and stops do to my CTS engine? Hard stops and starts can lead to premature wear on your engine’s components. Lighten up that lead foot and opt for steady, fluid starts and stops instead. Your engine (and your passengers!) will thank you.
  • I need a Cadillac CTS tune-up. Where can I get on? At your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care! Whether you need Cadillac CTS service, maintenance, or repairs, our technicians can get the job done.
  • How often do Cadillac CTS fuel injectors need to be cleaned? There is no hard and fast rule on how often fuel injectors should be cleaned, and it can vary based on driving habits and fuel type. Some manufacturers may suggest including a fuel system cleaning in your regular maintenance schedule. Or you may need to clean your fuel injectors as needed if you notice signs of a fuel system problem.
