I need to buy new struts for my 2001 Cadillac Deville and I have found that there are several different ones available for purchase, regular, air, and electronic suspension. How do I tell which of these are for my car?

Is it a base deville, dts, or dhs? If you have automatic leveling in the rear, you will have air suspension, but in rear only.

It's a base model. It definitely has some sort of lines running to the rear struts.

More than likely, it is a non-active suspension with rear electronic leveling. If there is just an air line going to the rear, no electrical connections and no height sensors on the front, it is without road-sensing suspension.
