    Help! Water leaks from windshield pillars

    Thanks for the detailed process. Before I go through that I just want to be sure this could be the cause. These vents sit well above the plenum and I think it would take some serious air pressure to get water to travel rearward about 2 feet and upward about 10 inches them just drip out. I always...

    Performance chips

    Has anyone tried a performance chip? Seems they are all over Ebay. (see item #s 180443776823, 280435509589). I've read some of the feedback. Some say it's a $.05 resister in the box that just fools the ECM. Others claim it reprograms the unit. Any comments?:dunno:

    Remote start

    Does anyone have a remote start on their XLR? My STS came with a factory unit which I love. I got my XLR used from a private party so don't know if Cadillac offered as an option.
