I've gotten my base tune for the transmission re-done by Chuck over at corvettes of westchester and then I've been tweaking it on my own with EFIlive. What year is your XLR? On the 06+ with the 6-speed - both 5th and 6th gears are over drive gears - are you saying that your XLR doesn't shift...

I don't have a squeak, but I have a clatter behind me... I have yet to find where its coming from

In my experience, it depends on the dealer you take it to... I've had dealers refuse to service my GMC truck because it didn't have the original wheels on it... despite the fact that they were official GM wheels that were installed at the dealer (at huge premium I might add so I could preserve...

Since you're in NY, call Chuck at Corvettes of Westchester - looks like he's about an hour away from you. Corvettes of Westchester I recommend you call him, not email... he's actually very nice, and very patient. He tuned my XLR-V last month when he was visiting Houston, TX and doing an event...

I added my Corsa after I installed the D3 intake... With the stock exhaust the supercharger whine with the D3 intake was noticable... you could definitely hear it over the rest of the engine and road noise. However, after I put on the Corsa I can no longer hear the supercharger whine at all...

I don't think you can disable the DRL's in the XLR - at least, I can't - are you able to?

The XLR already has DRL's - they're standard

I don't think that the stock V wheels would work with any big brake calipers - at the very least you'd need spacers - which probably isn't a good idea since the studs are pretty short

Wow, that one in china is a great deal - assuming it really works. Actually, they're both good deals. I had no idea they came down in price that much.

They do, its called an MDI and you need it for any car newer than 2010 I believe... the problem is that the price for "leasing" the software is more than the Tech2 for a year! But since the XLR had stopped production in 2009 there really isn't anything the MDI can provide that that the Tech2...

if you're an engineer you'll love the tech2 - it gives you tons of information... it drills down and will show you what each of the sensors are seeing... both intrepreted output (like lets say in PSI) and what the sensor is seeing in voltage or other state (on, off, etc) Also - the tech2 will...

Unforunately no. The "other" scan tools will only read the "generic" OBDII codes... so for basic engine diag the "other" scan tools are typically ok... stuff like misfires or emissions related stuff. But for everything else, you need the Tech2 I've played with the other scanners and...

I don't get it... my rears are 285 width and they fit within the fenders just fine - you can see from the photos that I posted that they do not extend past the fenders - I wonder why you're having such issues... I honestly think that 295's would fit.

Are you still running with your original battery? Or has it been replaced yet? I've heard of unusual behavior from our cars with weak batteries.

the C6 and the XLR share the same part for the hub... so they will be the same. I see that you've found the thread that I was reading over at the corvette forum - so I'll let you hash it out with them. What I know is that when I put my wheels on my car, they float centered even before I put...

No rings on mine... direct bolt on

My custom forgelines are hub centric

My 285's in the rear are fine... but if you read in my tire thread, you can see that people are convinced I'm nuts when I say they don't rub and thusly only recommend 275's... With that said, its my understanding that D3 is also doing cars with 295's in the rear on lowered XLR's with no...

I know this is not what you want to hear, but "it depends". It depends on the tire - since different tires have different sidewall profiles... so what width/offset works for one tire may rub with a different tire... It depends on the brake caliper - some are larger than others... and the...
