Cadillac - XT4 - Owners Manual - 2018 - 2018

September 2018, Volume 20, No. 17 All-New Cadillac XT4 Enters Compact Luxury SUV Market All-new 2019 XT4 The all-new 2019 XT4 is Cadillac’s first entry in the compact luxury SUV market. The 5-passenger SUV is available as a front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD) model with three trim levels: Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Sport. The compact XT4 has a wheelbase of 109.4 inches (277.9 cm) with an overall length of 181.1 inches (460 cm). It has 6.7 inches (17 cm) of ground clearance. New Turbocharged Engine The XT4’s new 2.0L 4-cylinder turbocharged engine (RPO LSY) — featuring Active Fuel Management (AFM), Spark Ignited Direct Injection (SIDI), Dual Overhead ­Camshafts (DOHC), and Variable Valve Timing (VVT) — produces 237 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque with a 0–60 mph (0–97 km/h) estimated time of 7 seconds (FWD) or 7.2 seconds (AWD). It’s the first engine built off the new cylinder set strategy (CSS) engine architecture. Cadillac designed the new turbocharged 2.0L engine for the XT4 to deliver performance along with fuel efficiency. It has a twin-scroll turbocharger to help reduce turbo lag while also using Active Fuel Management (AFM) and an automatic engine stop/start system to help improve fuel economy. To better balance power output with fuel economy, the engine also has a Sliding Cam Valve Lift System (SCS) that modifies camshaft timing under changing engine demand. continued on page 2 CONTENTS All-New Cadillac XT4 Enters Compact Luxury SUV Market . . . . . . . . . . 1 2019 XT4 Features New Integrated Brake Control . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 Engine Belt or Water Pump Noise. . . . . . . . 6 Intermittent ABS Light on Express and Savana Vans . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 Navigation System SD Card Now Shipped in Keys Bag for 2019 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 Service Know-How . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 Customer Care and Aftersales All-New Cadillac XT4 – continued from page 1 A new active ­thermal management cooling ­system on the engine is used to control the coolant temperature, sending heat where it is needed to reduce friction and to heat the passenger compartment while also cooling the engine and ­transmission. An electric water New 2.0L 4-cylinder turbocharged engine (RPO LSY) pump is mounted to the bottom left side of the engine and supplies the coolant flow through the entire active thermal ­management system. The ECM controls the water pump over the Local Interconnect Network (LIN). The main rotary valve and the block rotary valve are combined into one unit called the coolant control valve. The main rotary valve distributes coolant to the transmission and engine oil heat exchangers as well as the radiator and cabin heat exchangers. The block rotary valve provides coolant flow for engine block temperature control as well as cabin heating during warm-up. Engine Oil as soon as possible. The air filter life status should be reset using the DIC controls after replacing the air filter. 9-Speed Transmission The Hydra-Matic 9T50 automatic transmission (RPO M3H) is a 9-speed, transverse-mounted, electronically-controlled transmission. It consists primarily of a 4-element torque converter, a compound planetary gear set, friction and mechanical clutch assemblies, and a hydraulic pressurization and control system. Drivers make a gear selection using the Electronic Precision Shift lever. Electronic Precision Shift (EPS), or Electronic Transmission Range Selector (ETRS), features a console-mounted lever to shift gears electronically. It does not use a mechanical connection. The shift pattern, displayed on the top of the shift lever, is a straight up-anddown pattern, which is slightly different from the pattern of the EPS in the XT5. 9T50 automatic transmission (RPO M3H) Use dexos1® - GEN 2 full synthetic SAE 0W-20 engine oil in the 2.0L turbo engine. Engine oil pan TIP: The lower engine oil pan is made of plastic and is attached at the engine block lower structural extension. Do not use the oil pan to lift the engine. Air Filter The Engine Air Filter Monitor is a software feature that uses ­sensors to read the pressure drop across the engine air filter. A higher pressure drop indicates that more debris has accumulated in the filter. A computer-based algorithm uses the pressure drop ­reading and the age of the air filter to calculate a precise reading of air filter life, which can be viewed as a percentage on the Driver Information Center (DIC). If the air filter should be replaced at the next engine oil change, the Replace at Next Oil Change message will display on the DIC. If the Replace Now message is displayed, the air filter should be replaced 2 Electronic Precision Shift The selected gear position illuminates in red on the shift lever, while all others are white. If the shift is not immediate, as in very cold temperatures, the indicator on the shift lever may flash until it is fully engaged. The shift lever always starts from a center position and, after releasing the shift lever, returns to the center position. The shifter has a dedicated Park button at the top of the lever and a Shift Lock Release button on the left side of the lever. The Shift Lock Release button must be pressed to shift out of Park or to shift into Reverse. AWD System The all-wheel drive (AWD) system with Active Twin Clutch on the XT4 electronically splits the torque as needed between the rear continued on page 3 September 2018 All-New Cadillac XT4 – continued from page 2 wheels using twin clutches. Compared to a single clutch system with a 50/50 split, the Active Twin Clutch has the capability to enhance traction and stability across all driving conditions. Plus, by not pushing torque when it’s not needed, the system improves vehicle fuel economy. Active Sport Suspension Available as an option on the Sport Trim is the Active Sport ­Suspension, which features Continuous Damping Control with ­electronic sensors that monitor the road in real time and make damping adjustments every two milliseconds. Suspension characteristics as well as steering and powertrain ­tuning can be changed at any time by the driver by using the Mode button on the center console to select a different Drive Mode ­setting. The Bluetooth ­system also ­enables two phones to be paired at the same time. The infotainment system will connect to the phone that is set to First to Connect, which can be selected by going to Settings > ­System > Phones and touching the NFC icon near the Home button Information icon by the phone name. The secondary phone can only receive calls. Rotary Controller Drive Mode settings Integrated Brake Control The XT4 is the first Cadillac to use electro-hydraulic braking assist, which enhances fuel economy and takes up less space under the hood compared to a traditional vacuum-assisted power braking system. The system uses an Integrated Brake Control (IBC), also called the K160 Brake System Control Module, that interprets and converts driver brake pedal input and provides a corresponding hydraulic pressure output to activate a standard brake system. Depending on optional equipment, vehicle performance systems may include antilock brakes (ABS), traction control, electronic ­stability control, brake pad life monitoring, Dynamic Rear ­Proportioning, brake drying, Hill Start Assist, Hill Descent Control, ­Adaptive Cruise Control, and others. Next Generation Infotainment Systems In addition to the touch screen, a multi-function rotary controller for interacting with the infotainment system is located on the center console. The center console controls consist of a large dial that enables movement between apps and menus (press the controller to select an item); a small dial for audio volume/tuning along with seek buttons; and shortcut buttons for Home, Audio, Phone, and Navigation (if equipped) menus as well as a Back button to return to Infotainment controls on the center console a previous menu. Driver Assistance Systems Depending on option packages, the new XT4 features a number of active safety and driver awareness systems. Available systems include: • Safety Alert Seat • Rear Camera Mirror • Surround Vision 360-degree Camera • Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert • Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning The XT4 offers two infotainment systems (RPOs IOS, IOT) that include the next generation of the Cadillac User Experience. The system is designed to operate more like a smartphone and features high-resolution screen graphics, faster response to inputs, and improved voice recognition technology. • Front/Rear Park Assist It also includes Near Field Communication (NFC) device pairing. NFC is a set of communication protocols that enable two electronic devices, such as a smartphone, to establish communication by bringing them within 1.57 inches (4 cm) or less of each other. To pair a compatible smartphone using the NFC system, simply hold the phone up to the NFC icon near the Home button below the infotainment screen. After pairing is initiated, confirm the codes that appear on the infotainment screen. • Forward/Reverse Automatic Braking • Rear Cross Traffic Alert • Front Pedestrian Braking • Forward Collision Alert • Head-Up Display • Automatic Parking Assist with Braking continued on page 4 September 2018 3 All-New Cadillac XT4 – continued from page 3 Special Tools Tool Number Description EN-51955 Injector Seal Protector, Installer, Size EN-52287 Harmonic Balancer Holder EN-52436 Timing Chain Tensioner Retention Tool EN-52439 Crankshaft Oil Seal Ring Guide – Rear EN-52441 Balance Shaft Timing Tool XT4 features a number of active safety and driver awareness systems.

Thanks to Richard Miller and Sherman Dixon 4 September 2018 2019 XT4 Features New Integrated Brake Control The 2019 XT4 is the first Cadillac to use electro-hydraulic braking assist, which enhances fuel economy and takes up less space under the hood compared to a traditional vacuum-assisted power braking system. axle. The IBC supplies voltage to the brake pad wear sensor, which is part of the brake caliper assembly. The system uses an Integrated Brake Control (IBC) — the K160 Brake System Control Module — that interprets and converts driver brake pedal input and provides a corresponding hydraulic pressure output to activate a standard brake system. In the event of no electrical energy or a failure condition, the driver’s brake pedal input is mechanically converted to a hydraulic pressure output. The XT4 also is equipped with unique directional Wheel Speed Sensors (WSS) that can detect wheel direction as well as zero wheel speed. As the wheel spins, the WSS sends the IBC a DC square wave signal. The IBC uses the frequency of the square wave signal to calculate the wheel speed. Wheel Speed Sensors The IBC is a one-piece module that eliminates the master cylinder, vacuum pump and associated hoses while incorporating electronic stability control, traction control and an electric motor to push ­hydraulic fluid to the brakes at all four corners. The module is 13 lbs. (6 kg) lighter than the total weight of a conventional system. Brake Pedal Signal When the driver applies the brake pedal, the brake pedal position sensor reads the driver's intent to apply the brakes. The Body ­Control Module (BCM) monitors the brake pedal position sensor signal and sends a high-speed serial data message to the IBC indicating the brake pedal position. By using a digital signal, brake rotor runout feedback to the driver at the brake pedal also is eliminated. Wheel speed sensor If excessive wheel slip is monitored for greater than five seconds with a vehicle reference velocity of less than 1.9 mph (3 km/h), the traction control system will recognize this as a “stuck” condition. Once detected, the traction control system will allow additional wheel slip of 5% to help assist the vehicle. The additional wheel slip does not guarantee the vehicle will get out of the stuck condition, but is designed to assist the driver. Power-Up-Self Test Integrated Brake Control During a panic stop, the system does not rely on brake pedal apply force to determine the driver's intent but rather the speed with which the driver applies the brake pedal. Increased brake pressure is provided electronically through the IBC, which activates the antilock braking system if necessary and stops the vehicle as quickly as possible. The Brake System Control Module is able to detect many malfunctions whenever the ignition is on. However, certain failures cannot be detected unless active diagnostic tests are performed on the components. Shorted solenoid coil or motor windings, for example, cannot be detected until the components are commanded on by the Brake System Control Module. A power-up self-test is performed by the Brake System Control Module when the ignition is first turned on to verify correct operation of system components along with electrical checks of system sensors and circuits. Thanks to Richard Miller and Sherman Dixon Brake Pad Wear Sensors The XT4 features a new brake lining wear sensor system that estimates the remaining life of the front and rear brake pads. When the feature is active, brake pad life can be displayed on the Driver Information Center along with a percentage and distance for each September 2018 5 Engine Belt or Water Pump Noise GM TechLink is published for all GM retail technicians and service consultants to provide timely information to help increase know­ ledge about GM products and improve the performance of the service department.
