Tune-Ups to Help Your Cadillac XTS Run Better

Is it time for an engine tune-up? If you tend to ignore your car until something goes wrong, it could be time for a new way of doing things, especially if you want your 2013 Cadillac XTS’s engine to last for a long time. Periodic tune-ups can bring more power back to your XTS’s engine. They're designed to help your engine start easier and run more efficiently, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you take your car for regular engine tune-ups as recommended by Cadillac, you’re taking vital steps toward keeping your XTS’s engine running smoother, longer.

Engine Tune-Up for Cadillac XTS

The Firestone Complete Auto Care location in your community offers several Cadillac XTS engine tune-up services. The standard Firestone Tune-Up is one service option. It includes a complete visual inspection of engine components, installation of new spark plugs, and a lifetime warranty on parts*. A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your XTS. 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 XTS. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s performance). Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your XTS: your vehicle’s maintenance record and mileage can determine which service is best. This means that a tune-up service that’s a great fit for another car may not be optimal for yours. Talk to a technician about your driving style, mileage, and service history to learn more about your vehicle's specific needs.

Questions About 2013 Cadillac XTS Engine Tune-Ups

  • When should Cadillac XTS 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 should I do if I see leaks under my XTS? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Cadillac XTS. 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.
  • Are hard starts and stops bad for my Cadillac XTS engine? You can make your driving habits more engine-friendly. Hard starts and stops can increase the stress on engine parts, especially over many years. Boost your fuel economy and care for your engine by using gradual, smooth starts and stops instead.

Reference your Cadillac owner’s manual for exact guidelines.
