2016–2020 Cadillac CT6 FAQ

What symptoms mean the cabin air filter may need replacement?

Why does the exterior-lamps warning chime sound?

When should I change the engine oil?

2016

Change the engine oil when CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON appears, within the next 1 000 km (600 mi), and at least once a year.

Reset the oil life system after every oil change; if it was reset accidentally, change the oil at 5 000 km (3,000 mi) since the last change.

How do I switch between high and low beams?

2016

Push the turn-signal lever away and release it for high beams; push it again, or pull and release it, to return to low beams.

What should I do if the brake system warning light stays on?

2016

If the brake system warning light comes on or stays on, the vehicle has a brake problem and needs inspection right away.

Driving with it on can lead to a crash; after carefully stopping off the road, have the vehicle towed for service.

Page 135 in the 2016 manual →

What should I do if the TRANSMISSION HOT message appears?

2016

Stop the vehicle and let it idle so the transmission fluid can cool, because driving with high fluid temperature can damage the vehicle.

The message clears when the fluid temperature reaches a safe level.

What does the SERVICE TRANSMISSION message mean?

2016

It means there is a problem with the transmission, and the manual says to see your dealer.
