Hello, I would like to know where I can get my Car fixed at a reasonable price.
This is what happen. I went to start the car up yesterday and all of a sudden it made a pow! Sound as if the tires blew out, only it was underneath the hood. Whan we lifted the hood up we noticed a piece broke off of the oil pan or to tell you the truth I really dont know what that part is called. However we tried to start the car up since then and it wont start at all. Do u know a site that I can go to and see a picture of a Cadillacs inside so I may explain the part to u better? Please respond asap. I'm desperate!

The oil pan is underneath the car, if its under the hood its not the pan, where is the peice located. If its on the back valve cover its part of the AIR system

its a valve about a foot long and its black in color, its an AIR diverter valve. Ck your muffler also see if its blowed up too let me know

if the AIR valve is bad the AIR pump needs replaced also
