    rack and pinion for our cars

    This is what started all my troubles, the variable assist electronics on the steering rack. It was one thing, then another, mostly due to the ineptitude of David Taylor, now Sterling McCall Cadillac in Houston.

    Inspections & service contracts

    Having a service contract won't help much when over half of the parts for the car aren't available.

    Front Tonneau Cover Switch

    Just a suggestion. If you intend on keeping your X, a TECH II is almost a required piece of equipment.

    Front Tonneau Cover Switch

    I believe a top relearn will solve that problem. Mine would act up about once a year with the same symptoms but a top relearn would fix it.

    I'm not for sure. More than likely it wouldn't work since there was a lot of changes from the 04/05 series to the 06 on up even trying to program it with the Tech II

    Latest Satnav technology

    Not a bad idea, but when you get into an area with no cell service puts you in a bad position.

    Leather Seat Dyeing and/or Repro covers

    I bought the kit. It included everything needed for spot repairs. It does need to be feathered out past the spot repair for better blending

    Leather Seat Dyeing and/or Repro covers

    Yep, no removal. When I got the car it was 10 years old and the seats hadn't been taken care of. The leather wasn't cracking, but plenty of "wrinkles". I treated the area twice, then used Zaino leather treatment. I treated the seats once a month and never had to use the dye again. The secret is...

    Leather Seat Dyeing and/or Repro covers

    You have to be careful, as the air bags are located in the outside pads of the seats. Plus those speaker covers are old by now and can be cracked easily when removing them. I've used Seat Doctor on both of my vehicles and the dye blends in when dry for a perfect match.

    Leather Seat Dyeing and/or Repro covers

    One of my oldies, I actually went into Richmond Upholstery with my XLR. They replaced the outer/upper panel on the driver's seat for me. It was a perfect match. I've also used Seat Doctor's dye several times. Again, I had good luck with that stuff as well

    Find someone to "dip" it with a look a like wood grain.

    Trunk Opens after Convertible Top goes up or down

    Software is pirated GM from their original TECH II units. And is stored on a PCM/CIA card. Mine only went to 2013 vehicles. But it worked perfectly, I even had a retired GM mechanic borrow it a couple of times. Shop around if you're looking for one. Prices are all over but are the same in...

    Well...she's gone

    Join the club. It was bittersweet watching my 06 drive away, but after 8 years it was time to let go of that 17 year old car. Especially after the Cadillac dealership screwed up the car after a year in the shop
