The car appears to one of the most immaculate 1997 DeVilles around today and the color combination makes it all the more desirable. They told me it was not the oil pump ,fuel pump or censors. Jim I appreciate the kind words, you have no idea. I have a 1997 Cadillac Deville D'elegance and the oil light is flickering and the computer is saying shut engine off low oil pressure. Like others have stated, proper maintenance can give longevity to these motors.
I think your were about four years old at the time. My 96 Deville has been gone for over a year now and my ability to add something new over and above what I have said over and over has become limited. I am more than satisfied for the money I got for the car. It wasn't even about the money honestly; the car was too nice and I wanted to keep it but I have no space.

The car will sell itself if it is as nice as it looks. What weight oil are you using i the car now? Feel free to read about it more in this thread I made for my car. As far as I know, it is possible for the case half gasket to go bad and leak inside of the engine, and that would cause a drop in oil pressure. If you are using synthetic or 5W, it may contribute to your problem Why are you changing the oil level sensor? Again, the guru means nothing to them, they dont understand. Thanks for the compliment and your interest.
I have made my mind up, I dont want this to become like a Facebook posting where many post due to insecuity looking for adulation, pats on the back and attaboys, etc. See this link and a paragraph from his web page, Head Gaskets? I will most definitely miss it a lot. SeatingFilter selectedSeatingList, null ; seatingFilter. They told me it was not the oil pump ,fuel pump or censors.

Believe it or not, my wheels are the same distance inside the car that a stock wheel is if that makes sense. They told me it was not the oil pump ,fuel pump or censors.

The rear fender skirts are gone and the use of chrome trim has been reduced to a bit around the windows and a three-inch strip that runs down the side of the body. I am sick of arguing and trying to convince waves of newbies who come with a negatively slanted view of the engine. The company made one consolation to vintage tradition in that the 16-inch tires have a thin white strip on them, but it's so small that it hardly qualifies as a white-wall tire.
How many more times do we need to answer the overheating issue, Heal-a-seal, oil pressure light, etc. Car is in pristine condition. When did the low oil pressure light start flickering? It doesn't bother me though, honestly. If this is the case, it would have to be re-sealed, which is a bit complicated because the engine has to go out of the car. I just want to go quietly.
Post 2 above was the straw that broke the camels back, among many other posts that have been too much to weather.

Other internal engine wear could of course also be a possibility in any case like this, and it is really hard to tell without taking it apart, which unfortunately becomes expensive. I figured on a Cadillac forum that the enthusiasts on this site would already know the issues, pros and cons of the Northstar engine. The promotional package that came with our test car says that the d'Elegance version of the DeVille is aimed at the over-60 age group, but there's a hotter version for the kids, too.
I ended up getting close to what I wanted. Sometimes on the older engines. The frame and underbody are just as clean as the rest of the car. Anyhow here is the thing, the Northstar is one of the most awesome engines ever built and if you have one you should be proud. The same operator can cause the car's horn to beep and the lights to flash if I had lost it in a mammoth parking lot and can even track the car's location if some bad guy rips it off. The most common cause is a bad oil pressure switch.
