    Warning! Dead battery on XT5

    Wife went to start her XT5 this morning to find that nothing would work. Lights came on, dash lit up and radio came on, but not enough juice to turn over starter. I figured out that it hadn't been run for 9 days. So I took the Battery Tender from the XLR and recharged the battery. During the...

    homemade wind blocker

    Had a wind blocker from Roadster Solutions on my Z3. I looked for similar blocker for the XLR when I bought it. I finally took a piece of 1/4" plexiglass I had saved from another job and used it. I took apiece of cardboard to make a template of the roll hoops and the curve of the body and then...

    Hydrolic fluid reservoir

    The fluid in my reservoir is about 1/2" above the max line. Will cause any problems or should I siphon some out?

    Parking on an uphill incline

When I went to move the car, it felt as though the parking brakes hadn't released. Backed up about 15 feet to level ground and the check engine light came on. Shut the...

    Hello to the XLR owners

    The last place my XLR was serviced was in Southern California before being brought to Colorado. My mechanic said that somebody must have been riding the brake pedal. Mine is also silver.

    Hello to the XLR owners

    This car is a joy to drive. No dents, scratches, nicks or gouges. Interior like new. Only thing I found was a crack in the steering wheel. Found a sticker for the last oil change witch was on 3/10/13. 125 miles added since.Gonna play with it today. Dwain

    Hello to the XLR owners

    Got my 2007 XLR on Monday. Traded in my BMW Z3 that I cherished for 8 years. On Tuesday I replaced the hood supports and had new brake rotors i9nstalled. Quite a surprize for a car with only 25000 miles. It is a joy to drive and am looking forward to many miles with it. BigRig
