Oldsmobile Cutlass Parts

Not many cars have made a name of its own like the Oldsmobile Cutlass has. First seen in 1961, Cutlass body parts rode on GM's new A-body anybody platform, which was offered in three trims. The base F-85 came in two-and four-door sedan styles, as well as a four-door station wagon with Oldsmobile Cutlass auto parts like the aluminum 215 inch 155 horsepower V8 engine. The Cutlass brand name included other vehicle lines under its name, such as the premium Cutlass Supreme model and the Cutlass Ciera, Oldsmobile's best-selling model.

The Oldsmobile Cutlass has been associated with several common issues spanning its climate control system, ignition, and engine gasket integrity. Many owners report the AC compressor intermittently engaging and disengaging, attributed to a malfunctioning clutch relay or a clutch that disengages from overheating. Other signs include unusual sounds, like roars or squeaks, suggesting problems with the clutch or its components, such as a worn bearing. Some units halt their AC functions based on outside temperatures, due to reasons like lost system settings, electrical malfunctions preventing clutch engagement, low Freon, or issues with the HVAC power connections. Addressing the Freon deficit might require manually activating the compressor, bypassing the low-pressure switch. Notably, a '72 Cutlass displayed a decline in AC performance over a journey, attributed to possibilities like the evaporator core freezing, reducing airflow, especially if the old rubber drain on the evaporator housing becomes clogged. System charge imbalances or expansion valve adjustments could be culprits. The variable blower fan speeds highlight the need to inspect and clean resistor terminals, with the specific Cutlass' issue being partly resolved by addressing corroded terminals and recognizing the need for a new condensate drain hose. In late 1990s models, the anti-theft system light may activate intermittently, delaying car starts. To counteract, turning the ignition to "run" and waiting until the light extinguishes might help, although it may require repetition. The root cause could be the ignition key not being correctly recognized or complications with the Pass-lock device, with dealership consultations recommended for proper diagnostics and caution against unwarranted bypassing. Lastly, the 1998 Cutlass with a V6 3.1L engine often faces failing lower intake manifold gaskets, leading to coolant infiltrating the oil system. Signs include persistent coolant depletion, white exhaust smoke, and reduced power. Addressing this involves inspecting parts like the intake manifolds and heads for cracks, determining efficient cleaning methods for coolant-contaminated components, choosing the right replacement gaskets, and debating the use of silicone on these gaskets. Properly tending to this problem can prolong the vehicle's lifespan substantially.
