2000 Cadillac Seville Flywheel Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the Flywheel on 2000 Cadillac Seville?

  A: The flex plate service requires starting with transaxle removal while discarding Flywheel bolts. The next step involves removing the eight mounting bolts after which the technician takes out the Flywheel while handling the reinforcement. Clean and inspect the Flywheel. The installation starts by setting the Crankshaft to receive the Flywheel and the reinforcement. It is necessary to apply gm p/n 12346004 sealant or another equivalent to new Flywheel mounting bolts. Fitting eight new mounting bolts requires a torque setting at 15 nm (11 ft. Lbs.) followed by a final torque setting at 50 degrees using the torque/angle meter (J 36660-A). To complete final bolt installation process the torque/angle meter (J 36660-A) should be used for applying a 50-degree rotation to the Flywheel mounting bolts. Finally, reinstall the transaxle assembly.
