• Q: How to replace the upper intake manifold on 2006 Cadillac SRX?

  A: Begin your upper Intake Manifold replacement process by shutting off the ignition and setting aside the fuel injector sight shield and air inlet duct alongside the Brake Booster Vacuum Hose. Separate the wiring harness retaining bracket from the Throttle Body electrical connection before you disconnect the Throttle Body connector and the purge solenoid valve connector from its electrical harness and purge line. Disassemble the upper Intake Manifold assembly completely by removing the brace stud , bolt , and brace followed by detaching the pcv hose from right bank camshaft cover, barometric pressure sensor electrical connector, and Intake Manifold runner control solenoid electrical connector. After you remove the injector harness bracket bolt and the left bank ignition coil wiring harness from the bracket you can remove the upper Intake Manifold bolts but sometimes you'll need to deflect the cowl panel to obtain the right rear bolt. Take out the upper Intake Manifold that includes the Throttle Body for replacement while you must disassemble and clean up and inspect any replaceable upper Intake Manifold. Construct an Intake Manifold for replacement if necessary then position a new upper Intake Manifold gasket before installing the upper Intake Manifold. Start by tightening the upper Intake Manifold bolts at the center and move toward the exterior until each bolt reaches 23 nm (17 ft. Lbs.). Connect the right bank camshaft cover to barometric pressure sensor electrical connector and Intake Manifold runner control solenoid electrical connector alongside pcv hose. After installing the upper Intake Manifold brace with its bolt and stud you must tighten both components. Start by bolting to 65 nm (48 ft. Lbs.) then stud to 10 nm (89 inch lbs.). Connect the electrical connector across the Throttle Body while making sure the wiring harness connector properly locks into place before putting on the retainer. The purge system requires a connection between the purge line and solenoid valve and its power source in addition to reestablishing the vacuum hose from the Intake Manifold to the brake booster. Then attach the air inlet duct and fuel injector shield.
