Cadillac DTS Wheel Seal

The Cadillac DTS Wheel Seal is the guardian that keeps the lubricant inside the hub and prevents grit and moisture from reaching the sensitive wheel bearings. Hidden just behind the brake rotor, this Wheel Seal creates a tight seal around the spindle. The grease stays put, and the friction remains low. If the seal weakens, precious grease leaks out, bearings overheat, and the smooth ride that drivers expect from a Cadillac can quickly disappear. Over the years, the DTS has applied two primary styles of Wheel Seal, the traditional single lip design and the later double lip variant, which added a secondary ridge to provide further defense against road splash. The single lip type is more focused on sealing the lubricant in normal driving, whereas the double lip model is more resistant to harsh climates as it resists the intrusion of dust more effectively. Despite this difference, both versions have a flexible elastomer edge bonded to a metal case that presses firmly into the hub bore. Regular visual inspections for wet trails, cracks, or hardened rubber allow owners to detect early failure before the DTS is heard to have grinding noises or wobble. Replacing a damaged Wheel Seal restores factory performance and helps the Cadillac to roll quietly at highway speeds. Keep in mind that even the greatly strong Wheel Seal is dependent on proper installation and clean surfaces to seal perfectly.

Each OEM Cadillac DTS Wheel Seal we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.

Cadillac DTS Wheel Seal Parts Questions & Experts Answers

  • Q: How to replace a wheel seal on Cadillac DTS?
    A:
    Loosen the front wheel lug nuts and the driveaxle/hub nut. Raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the wheel. Remove the driveaxle(s). Pry out the seal and remove it from the transaxle housing using a seal removal tool. Compare the new seal to the old one to make sure they're the same. Coat the lips of the new seal with transaxle fluid. Place the new seal in position and lap it into the bore with a hammer and a large socket or a piece of pipe that's the same diameter as the outside edge of the seal. Tap the new seal into place using a large socket or section of pipe and hammer-use a socket or section of pipe with a diameter slightly smaller than the outside diameter of the seal itself. The remainder of installation is the reverse of removal.
