Check the oil and see if there are bubbles on the dipstick.
More please, the lack of refrigeration? 11 years for Cadillac cars especally made OPEL could have head gasket problems. Never overheated radatior maintenance and repair, and new thermostat? or not? easily clogged pipes, whose age radatior forget to stay in an oil bath gearbox look. I have a car the other day was hot enough, and you will force coolant into the transmission. Leaky transmission oil cooler and the car was 233 degrees is enough to turn the A / C compressor. It was in A / C not cooling properly with a new transmission and radatior left.
The white smoke from the exhaust could indicate a leaky head gasket. Is antifreeze has traces of oil? "Oil has traces of antifreeze? You have a pressure test of 150 psi on each cylinder, is by wearing a sheet with a kind of spark plug adapter. Remove the lid of the overflow of antifreeze. When one of his top hat and blowing dirt and the head gasket is leaking or see the engine block is cracked.

If the head gasket is made you will be a lot of white smoke. The first thing you may want to try is to change the thermostat.

Check your oil, it's way? If the amendment is to be so. Driving for a while after the change, if its milky again (big difference milky) in the pure oil and have the head gasket (s) bad. Recenctly traded me, a 97 Catera and only had a few problems with me, but the car isknown essentially a lemon. It is not worth much because he has never been so popular in the States, and I say this in the States, as not even a Cadillac. This is an Opel Omega renamed the line of GM Europe. Look it up, the parts are expensive repair times (the number of hours that are calculated on a mechanic) is high because the engine is working hard and most of the parts are dealer only type is not stored at Auto Zone / pepboys party type stores. Good luck.
