Cant get much more traffic than this:

http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/

There'* also Lincoln vs Cadillac, though Lincoln seems to get more attention there according to the quick browse of the postcount:

Boreas thanks for the forum link.
What name do I give them in the Referral space?

http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/


I am just trying to keep a nice little old lady from being ripped off by the dealership.
She has a 93 Drville that had a 300mili amp battery drain that pulled the battery down. Traced the drain down to a flaky glove box lamp switch.
The car still has a 20 mili-amp drain on the battery but I thought that might be normal for this car?

This morning the neighbor called with the battery down again and the starter would not turn over.
I hooked up my battery charger set at 2amp trickle charge for 12 hours.
Read the label on the battery and it is an Exide Orbitak AGM cell battery.
Called Exide and they say you have to have a special charger for that battery.
I asked for a list of compatible chargers and they said I would have to contact battery charger companies and check for my self. Fffft.

Is the 20 mili-amp drain acceptable on a 93 Deville?

Well this is a first http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/ will not grant me membership because I am on dialup. They say my Dialup.cc isp email is not a real isp email.

Its not because you are on dial-up but rather they dont know that its an ISP email.

I tried to send a PM to let one of the admins know about this, but I cant send one because my postcount is less than 30 (I read, I only post when I have problems, and with Caddy'* I have few).

Those are excluded as well.

When I first joined in 2004 I was able to use a Yahoo account just fine.

You just may have to go with Lincoln vs Cadillac then, im sure they are equally as knowledgeable and dont have crazy rules.

Thanks Bonnevillan they wii not take them only ISP email address.
I can’t blame them but I have no way to contact them.
You ever have one of those days when every thing turns to crap?
