Most common problems:

Oil leaks

The LSA engine in the 2014 Cadillac CTS is known to develop oil leaks from the oil pan gasket, valve cover gaskets, and rear main seal over time.

Supercharger issues

The supercharger in the LSA engine can develop issues such as bearing failure, coolant leaks, and noise due to wear and tear.

Timing chain wear

The timing chains in these engines can stretch or wear out, leading to poor engine performance and potentially catastrophic engine damage if not addressed.

Cooling system problems

The cooling system, including the radiator and water pump, can develop leaks or fail, leading to overheating issues.

Ignition coil failure

The ignition coils in the LSA engine can fail, which can cause misfires, rough idling, and poor engine performance.

Fuel injector problems

Fuel injectors can become clogged or fail, leading to poor fuel delivery, misfires, and reduced engine performance.

Crankshaft position sensor failure

This sensor can fail, leading to intermittent starting issues or engine stalling.

Carbon build-up

Direct injection engines like the LSA can suffer from carbon build-up on the intake valves, leading to reduced performance and fuel efficiency.

Accessory belt wear

The accessory belts, including the supercharger drive belt, can wear out and need regular inspection and replacement to avoid breakdowns.

Throttle body issues

The electronic throttle body can develop issues such as carbon deposits or sensor failures, leading to throttle response problems.
