    Help! Original Wheels

    Wheels in Michigan We recently replaced the wheels and tires on our '04XLR. The originals are not in pristine condition in spite of their low mileage (22,000). Nothing horrible, just the usual bumps and scrapes. Everything is just as it was when they came off the car complete with tires and...

    Christmas wishes to all from the bluebeast

    This has been our first summer as new XLR owners and XLR-net members and it has been a great one. Now we are not counting our convertible top hydraulics problems but we figure it's all part of getting the bugs out. After purchasing our '04 Xenon Blue XLR with 20,000 miles we installed Walker...

    Summer fun. Bruce. First time attempting to reply to a thread. Hope I got it right. My husband and I own a 2004 Zenon blue XLR, bluebeast. We would love to get together with other XLR owners at Woodward Dream cruise, if something can be set up as a group. We did the Cruise when we owned my...

    Help! Looking for certified XLR tech in Michigan

    I'm still in the shallow end of the pool as far as which sources of the Tech2 tool are legitimate and which are not. When you see the gigantic cost range of what these are going for I have to consider the fact that there is something going on. Getting to the bottom of why will most likely be an...

    Thanks for the link to the thread. Having been up to my eyebrows in cars since the early 1970s, I'm thinking that a TechII is the next adventure.

    Help! Looking for certified XLR tech in Michigan

    Thanks for the info. I have an appointment Monday at 8 a.m. with a dealer about a hour away who says they have a XLR certified tech. If this is true, he should have no problem. If this is another case of the dealer trying to pass off somebody that is not, as certified, I'll will have printed out...

    Help! Looking for certified XLR tech in Michigan

    If I find a great XLR tech I will consider it the equivalent of finding gold. Establishing and maintaining a relationship will be highest priority. I knew I would need to do this but I didn't anticipate the need arising so quickly. We purchased the car last fall, put it up for the winter, got it...

    Help! Looking for certified XLR tech in Michigan

    top problem response Yes the decklid (trunklid) opens and closes just fine. The top control switch worked fine (when pushed I could hear the pump run after the windows lowered) but after getting the car back from the dealer this last time, I get nothing. The real challenge I'm having is...

    Help! Looking for certified XLR tech in Michigan

    Thanks for the reply. Jackson Cadillac told me straight up that they didn't have anybody that could help. Ann Arbor doesn't have a certified XLR tech but they are a multi brand GM dealer and maybe they might have somebody that can help. As well as your Buick suggestion, I have been told that the...
