How to Check Automatic
Transmission Fluid
It is not necessary to check the
transmission fluid level.
A transmission fluid leak is the only
reason for fluid loss. If a leak occurs,
take the vehicle to your dealer and
have it repaired as soon as possible.
The vehicle is not equipped with a
transmission fluid level dipstick.
There is a special procedure for
checking and changing the
transmission fluid. Because this
procedure is difficult, this should be
done at the dealer. Contact your dealer
for additional information.
Caution
Use of the incorrect automatic
transmission fluid may damage the
vehicle, and the damage may not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Always use the correct automatic
transmission fluid. See
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants

420.
Change the fluid and filter at the
intervals listed in Maintenance
Schedule 0410, and be sure to use the
fluid listed in Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants 0420.
Manual Transmission Fluid
It is not necessary to check the
manual transmission fluid level.
A transmission fluid leak is the only
reason for fluid loss. If a leak occurs,
take the vehicle to your dealer and
have it repaired as soon as possible.
See Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants 0420 for the proper fluid
to use.

expansion if freezing occurs,
which could damage the tank if
it is completely full.
Brakes
Disc brake linings, except J57 V-Series
Blackwing with carbon ceramic brakes,
have built-in wear indicators that
make a high-pitched warning sound
when the brake linings are worn and
new linings are needed. The sound
can come and go or can be heard all
the time when the vehicle is moving,
except when applying the brake pedal
firmly. The V-Series Blackwing has
electronic pad wear sensors. See Brake
Pad Life System (If Equipped) 0351
{Warning
The brake wear warning sound
means that soon the brakes will not
work well. That could lead to a
crash. When the brake wear
warning sound is heard, have the
vehicle serviced.
Caution
Continuing to drive with worn-out
brake linings could result in costly
brake repairs.
Properly torqued wheel nuts are
necessary to help prevent brake
pulsation. When tires are rotated,
inspect brake linings for wear and
evenly tighten wheel nuts in the
proper sequence to torque
specifications. See Capacities and
Specifications 0426.
Brake linings should be replaced as
complete axle sets.
Brake Squeal and Brake Dust
Some driving conditions or climates
can cause a brake squeal when the
brakes are first applied, clearing up
following several applies. This does
not mean something is wrong with
the brakes.
Vehicles equipped with high
performance brake systems provide
superior fade resistance, but will
produce increased brake squeal and

Cadillac CT5 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-15268585) -
2022 - CRC - 10/11/21
350 VEHICLE CARE
brake dust on the wheels and calipers
as compared to standard brake linings.
This is normal.
To help reduce squeal, high
performance brake pads are treated
with an anti-squeal paste that may
need to be reapplied periodically as
part of normal vehicle maintenance.
The anti-squeal paste will dissipate
over time. Also, the use of wheel
cleaners or power washers directly on
the brake calipers may remove the
anti-squeal paste from the brake pads.
It may be necessary to reapply the
anti-squeal paste if it is removed
during cleaning.
If brake squeal is excessive, the
anti-squeal paste should be reapplied.
The anti-squeal paste should always
be reapplied whenever the brake pads
are removed or replaced. See your
dealer for service.
Brake Pedal Travel
See your dealer if the brake pedal does
not return to normal height, or if
there is a rapid increase in pedal
travel. This could be a sign that brake
service may be required.
Replacing Brake System Parts
Always replace brake system parts
with new, approved replacement parts.
If this is not done, the brakes may not
work properly. The braking
performance can change in many
ways if the wrong brake parts are
installed or if parts are improperly
installed.
The Brake Fade Warning Assist
system is designed for use with the
factory-installed brake pads or GM
approved replacement pads. If the
brake pads on the vehicle need to be
replaced, use GM-approved brake
pads. If this is not done, the brake
fade warning system may not function
properly.
High Performance Brake Lining
Car Wash and Extended
Parking Care
If equipped with high performance
brake components, binding or
clunking may be noticeable after
extended parking or in cold weather
when the brakes have been wet, such
as when driving in the rain or after a
car wash. The clunking is normal forbrakes with high performance brake
linings and does not affect the
operation of the brakes. When driving,
normal braking will allow for the
brakes to feel smooth and the
clunking to go away. If the vehicle is
washed before overnight parking or
long term storage, drive it and apply
the brakes several times to thoroughly
dry the brakes.
Brake Rotor Wear (V-Series
Blackwing With J57 Carbon
Ceramic Rotors)
The V-Series Blackwing with J57 has
carbon ceramic brake rotors. The
rotors should be visually inspected
whenever the brake pads are replaced.
Carbon ceramic brake rotors also need
to be weighed before brake pads are
replaced to confirm that the rotor
mass is greater than the wear-out
mass printed on the rotor. The rotor
can be reused if the weight of the
rotor is above the mass limit. Carbon
ceramic brake rotors inspection and
weighing methods can be found in the
service manual.
