New 08 Owner Car Wont Start!!
I just traded in my 2004 Cadillac CTS for a 2008 ES350... I love the car but have a couple of issues/questions... I have had the car for 1 week and twice it wouldnt start!. 1st time was day #2..hubby and I were getting everything programmed... garage door opener, cell phones, seats... etc... after we were done "playing" i got ready to go to the store and the dern thing wouldnt start! So he gave me a boost off and it started right up.. Day #7 I allowed the hubby to drive the car for guys night out at the local pool hall. Since everywhere is now " no smoking" he went outside sat in the car with the door open and smoked a cigarette... we talked for about 20 min while he was outside he went back in and an hour later when he was getting ready to come home....guess what!! the car wouldnt start!! 2 sec boost off and it started right up ANY IDEAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep that is definitely the battery. It should be right around $100 (don't bother with the OEM battery), and I'm pretty sure a place like Autozone or Advance Auto Parts will even install it for free.

Thanks for the info... called my salesman and they had a new one out in no charge/ hassle... @lexpaul i went to the cadillac dealer to get another caddy but the 350 caught my eye.
