warranty Sold my 06-V about 7 months ago, anyone with warranty should take advantage of Cadillac's 18 point inspection. I took mine in for exhaust hangers & was quoted almost 7K for needed items on dirty side of car, give them the list and warranty and let them do their thing. Great way to get...

Exhaust baffles Not to my knowledge, baffles will not open or close if engine is not running. Are you saying the vehicle isn't able to run? An easy way to see if they are working is to go too the trunk and open it up, in the left hand corner open up the lid. start the car & cut the red wire...

I think it's all about condition & mileage as to the prices of XLR & XLR-V's. I had kept my 06-V in showroom condition, buyer loved condition at 86,000 miles, after turning mine loose on the freeway & hit 100 mph in about 5 seconds he said SOLD.

Exhaust mild to wild, old school Copy images to computer so you can zoom in on tags

Alternate Wild to Mild switch I haven't been on this site since I sold my 06-V & would like to give you folks my wild to mild done in 2006 and still worked fine when sold. I did this in 2006 before wild to mild came out. Not a crawl under car type of thing. I will post pics here as to how to do...

I think you're a little low on that price, I just sold my 06 V with 86,000 for $27,500 on Ebay

Just for the record I wanted to let owners know that I Sold my 06-V for $25,000 on Ebay:thumbsup, lots of looky loos wanting to steal it at ridiculous prices, they have no idea what this car is & how it can put a smile on your face at a light when challengers are in rear view mirror. i took the...

As you said, GM people at GM plant in Bowling Green in 2006 at a rendezvous of XLR's said we had a free upgrade coming, I never got my free upgrade as I was told in 2008 that the free upgrade for Denso was not worth the effort. When I did apply for it in 2009 they said I was to late and missed...

Waze I run the Waze app from my Samsung Galaxy, put velcro on the dash and on the back of the phone & works great when you hit the areas that don't show on the nav system.I got sucked in buying Denso Gen 2 for a lot of bucks and got little or nothing, it still shows I live in the desert of...

repair for navigation & discs Julious, this gentleman Fred, has been in the business for 20 years, he can take the unit out or you can take it out which is not an easy task. The center console must be removed which entails removing the shift knob. It just needs to be moved back about a foot to...

I don't mind the prices but I'm scared to death that they are really new and some new ones only cover east coast & Canada, what's up with that? I have had my navigation unit cleaned re-a-lined laser at the ridiculous price of $550. I kept getting error messages. Works like a brand new one now...

Having an 06 navigation disc leaves me wanting when the nav system shows me out in a spot with no roads. What is the latest nav disc and where can I obtain a version for the XLR-V version.:blinzel: Thanks in advance.

Of course I liked most, but after the attempt of making expensive maps for trips to that German town I believe was Fredericksburg & Corpus Christy and getting a car washer behind the hotel for those three days was a bit of work and it seemed like the Chicago bunch went to a lot of trouble to...

We rendezvous attendees at Bowling Green back in 08 took a poll on shark gills. 78% said no, they didn't listen. We also took a poll in 07 at Bowing Green on the price and found buyers wouldn't buy again if they kept going up in price without any credible add ons, like DVR recorders for adding...

The idea of a cell phone for older people is for emergencies, that spotting of a grey XLR was an emergency. Keep your phone on, you can't dial 911 when it's off.:wave:
