2002 Cadillac Eldorado

For nearly 50 years, the Eldorado has helped distinguish Cadillac from the competition. Long considered the ultimate in prestige, Eldorado has also been a technological showcase, consistently debuting new, groundbreaking innovations.

"Features such as StabiliTrak, Magnasteer and continuously variable road-sensing suspension set Eldorado apart from other luxury offerings," said Steve Rosenblum, Eldorado brand manager. "In terms of design, its sharp, razor edges and angular body give it a distinctive appearance on the road."

The 2001 model was built to be the most advanced and responsive Eldorado ever, and continues to be the best-selling prestige luxury coupe in the United States. Production was shifted from the Detroit Hamtramck Assembly Center in Detroit to the Lansing Craft Centre in Lansing, Michigan, creating manufacturing efficiencies, achieving a better balance between available facilities and market demand and improving overall quality.

For 2002, Cadillac has added a few additional refinements to the Eldorado. Routine maintenance becomes less time consuming, with oil and filter change intervals increased from every 10,000 miles to 12,500 miles.

The Cadillac Eldorado also has new factory fill engine oil that meets the industry’s upgraded GF3 oil specifications. The specification calls for a .5 to 1 percent increase in fuel economy and a 40 percent reduction in oil consumption. The new oil is more highly refined and contains more detergent inhibitor.

Offering both 275- and 300-horsepower variants, the 4.6-liter aluminum 32-valve Northstar V8 remains the heart of the Eldorado. The engine was redesigned in 2000, resulting in significantly lower emissions, quieter operation, and better fuel economy running on regular unleaded fuel. All without losing the performance that has long been Northstar’s signature. The 2000 engine featured an all-new head design, new intake manifolds, coil-on-plug ignition and rolling cam runners to reduce friction.
