• Q: How to replace the Engine Oil Dipstick Tube on 2009 Cadillac SRX?

  A: First turn on the ignition off and pull out the oil level indicator from its position on the oil level indicator tube before beginning the replacement process. Before the next step starts remove the oil level indicator tube bolt then raise the vehicle. Follow this procedure by removing the Knock Sensor alongside the heat shield clip from the oil level indicator tube. After lowering the vehicle observe the position of the secondary (small square) heat shield. The oil level indicator tube must be pulled up through the exhaust manifold to remove it. When replacing only the oil level indicator tube seal the technician needs to discard the previous seal. The installation requires positioning the secondary heat shield precisely as it was positioned during removal on the oil level indicator tube. Use the tube to raise the vehicle and afterward reinstall the Knock Sensor on completion of installation of the oil level indicator and tube. As the final step lower the vehicle after attaching the heat shield clip onto the oil level indicator tube.
