Sounds interesting. Pics will help. Tomorrow.

Can't thank all of you enough. What a great forum and aid to the uneducated ( me ). This XLR is 2004 with 24,500 miles. Cosmetically it is excellent. Literally a garage-kept gem driven occasionally by an older woman. Mechanically, I don't know. Few MX records. With that low mileage maybe very...

Big Duck, The battery is brand new but car has been driven at least 150 miles, most at highway speeds since replacement.I am considering buying the car but the three warnings are worrisome. Seller will not take the time or expense to clear it up. He took it to a specialist ( unspecified ) and...

Big Duck, Yes I did. Was looking to buy and just trying things out. Turned the system off and now cannot turn it back on or reset. Driving the car did not return it to operation. Simple fix or potentially big bucks? Thanks

Gary, Thanks. I sorta feel like the lyrics from Night Moves - Workin' on mysteries without any clues. I'll get started.

Newbie needs help again. 2004 XLR - ABS, Stabilitrac and Traction control lights all on. Where to start? Simple fix or expensive parts? Please point me in the right direction on this one. Thanks

My thanks to all of you for the help with the shock issue. Glad to hear from people who know these cars.

nerkpowers, Thanks for the prompt response and info. If I get no DIC warnings, can I assume that the magnetic shocks are still operating normally? Thanks One more question: if the shocks are leaking, is the leakage visible from under the car looking up at the shocks?

As a newbie, how can I tell if there are any problems with the magnetic shocks on a 2004 XLR I am considering. Are problems illuminated on the onboard warning system? Thanks

Great info. Thanks

Gary, Thanks for the prompt response and the info. Is there a source that will show what colors were available in each year of XLR production? Like I said I am a newbie to the XLR world. Lots of looking to find just the right car. Knox

My Bad! I guess colors not available in those years. I'm learning!

Thanks for the color info

Newbie here with question that displays my newness: Is the Nieman Marcus edition a non-stock color? Picture makes it look grayish with a slight bit of purple? Maybe my eyes need a tune-up. Thanks
