Enhanced 2012 Cadillac SRX to Hit Showrooms in August For Release Wednesday, July 27, 2011 Enhanced 2012 Cadillac SRX to Hit Showrooms in August New 3.6L V6 boosts power with ECO mode for efficient driving SRX Retail sales up 33.4 per cent, with a 3.4 point segment share increase in 2011 OSHAWA – The Cadillac SRX, a fast-rising favourite among midsize luxury crossovers, receives a significant upgrade for the 2012 model year starting in August. A new 308- horsepower 3.6L direct-injected V6 engine gives SRX the most standard power in its class, and includes a driver-selectable ECO Mode for optimal fuel efficiency. While gaining substantial horsepower, the new LFX engine delivers good fuel efficiency to because of its mass-efficient design and the ECO Mode, which sets revised shift points in the 6-speed HydraMatic automatic transmission to maximize efficiency. The 2012 SRX carries a standard price of $42,000(MSRP). Other upgrades and changes in the SRX for 2012 include standard Bluetooth on all models, an optional heated steering wheel, a xenon Blue Metallic exterior paint option that will be available in fall 2011, an all- ebony interior option with contrasting stitching, and a new 20-inch wheel finish option. “The crossover category is an important segment in the luxury market and we’re taking the already successful SRX even further with enhancements for 2012,” said Marc Comeau, vice president of marketing for Cadillac in Canada. “SRX has performed very well globally and here in Canada we have seen 18 consecutive months of sales growth. We expect the 2012 model to continue that trend.” SRX retail sales are up 33.4 per cent in 2011, gaining 3.4 share points this year. SRX features an advanced All Wheel Drive system with electronic limited slip rear differential that distributes power front-to-rear, and also can move power across the rear axle based on driving conditions and traction. The chassis includes Adaptive Real-Time damping technology for excellent ride control. Rainsense automatic windshield wipers connect to the braking system, enabling the brakes to conduct slight periodic calliper applications, keeping rotors dry for optimal stopping power in wet conditions. SRX includes HID headlamps with Adaptive Forward Lighting, Bose 5.1 surround sound with navigation, a full-color LCD Driver Info Centre, and a rear-view camera system. OnStar is standard and features OnStar RemoteLink mobile app, Stolen Vehicle Assistance and one year of Directions and Connections service. The SRX is an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) 2011 Top Safety Pick and provides advanced occupant protection and crash avoidance safety systems. About Cadillac in Canada Cadillac has been a luxury automotive manufacturer since 1902 and has a prestigious history of safety and technology innovation. This legacy continues today as Cadillac engineers and builds technologically advanced, dramatically styled vehicles with a reputation for luxury, performance and quality.

Plaintiffs and class members purchased or leased new and used vehicles manufactured by General Motors (“GM”) between 2015 and 2018. Each of these vehicles is equipped with one of two models of eight-speed automatic transmissions, both manufactured by GM: the GM 8L90 or the 8L45.1 2. These transmissions have a common defect. Drivers attempting to accelerate or decelerate their cars feel a hesitation, followed by a significant shake, shudder, jerk, clunk, or “hard shift” when the vehicle’s automatic transmission changes gears. Said shudder, shake and 1 Vehicles equipped with one of these transmissions (the “Subject Vehicles”) include the 2015-2019 Chevrolet Silverado; the 2017-2019 Chevrolet Colorado; the 2015-2019 Chevrolet Corvette; the 2016-2019 Chevrolet Camaro; the 2015-2019 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV; the 2016-2019 Cadillac ATS, ATS-V, CTS, CT6, and CTS-V; the 2015-2019 GMC Sierra, Yukon, and Yukon XL, and Yukon Denali XL; and the 2017-2019 GMC Canyon.

  • Automobile Engineering
    A Course Material on Automobile Engineering By Mr. T.Manokaran ME,MBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING SASURIE COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING VIJAYAMANGALAM – 638 056 Author Page At first I like to submit my sincere thanks to GOD, PARENTS and FRIENDS who have helped and encouraged me to prepare this entire course material for the subject of Automobile Engineering. Automobile Engineering is a vast field encompassing different types of vehicles used for transportation of people and materials. It is very difficult to cover all the aspects of automobile engineering in single notes, because vehicles are being refined and improved day by day. However an attempt is made in this course material to give the maximum possible details of fundamentals of the automobile vehicles. It is always challenging to decide whether historical notes should come before or after the description and interpretation of the state of the art. Arguing for the second alternative is the fact that readers should already have understood the motivations that drive a design decision. We begin this chapter with basis of automobile, and through by the transmissions and steering systems, going on later to describe wheels, tires and braking & suspension systems. This emphasis is solely due to the larger impact that suspensions and steering systems have on vehicle architecture and its consequent evolution; steering systems will be described together with suspensions because these two systems are indissoluble from the point of view of designers. Knowing is not enough, We must apply. Willing is not enough, We must do. ALL the BEST T.Manokaran ME,MBA Assistant Professor Department of Mech.Engg.

Only the front clip and tail lights was changed out to the 1954 design. Therefore, the “Early” 1954 Specials also have the smaller 1953 one-piece rear window.

Yellowstone Rd., Altonah, Utah 84002 PREFACE I have complied these “Restoration Notes” in order to provide some guidance to those who own these unique American automobiles and for those who may be contemplating purchasing one. The Kaiser automobiles were some of the most unique and quality American cars of the 1950's and are a very pleasurable car to own, restore, show or drive. They turn heads every where they go and their beauty and uniqueness always draw a crowd. The Kaisers are not difficult to restore or maintain and most parts can be located with little effort. Most mechanical parts were obtained from outside suppliers, such as Borg-Warner, Auto-Lite, and GM, so many parts are common with other makes.
