    Hose Leak - Need Part Number

    My thoughts about Crimson Pearl Like everyone else here, we're very appreciative of the great wealth of knowledge that our fellow member CC shares with us here. It's just more proof of how much he appreciated his XLR. But keep in mind, there was another factor that he said figured into the...

    Help! The furture of the XLR

    I went downstairs to the garage to ask my 2005 XLR what she thought about future parts availability. She said "let me discuss this with my garage mates, the 1976 Chevrolet El Camino and 1966 Pontiac GTO". She then said "I'll get back to you about this". ;)

    The Weather Channel

    Cold front came through! I took the GreaT One to this show today. Weather was very nice, high of about 58.......until about 1:00 pm. Cold front came through like opening the refrigerator door. Clouds came over, breeze picked up and temperature dropped. In just a bit, clouds cleared, sun...

    Digital Speedo

    Not cheap! Ask Cubby or a couple of others as they had their speedometers verified by radar on their way from Asheville to Charleston a few years ago! :chuckle

    Help! 2005 Cadillac XLR keeps shutting off!!!

    You really need to take your car to a Cadillac Dealer with a Certified XLR technician. Since it has been 7 years since the last XLRs were produced, there are probably fewer XLR certified techs in the dealerships now. I am fortunate to have an excellent Certified XLR technician at my Cadillac...

    Boone NC We took Crimson Pearl for a little run in the mountains yesterday, to check out the leaves and have lunch at the Dan'l Boone Inn. Lunch was good and the scenery nice. You might find the website for the Dan'l Boone Inn to be interesting. We also spent some time doing some early...

    Help! Cadillac XLR Headlights

    Not teasing My purpose for posting was not to tease, but to show that these are real units that are available. Not cheap, but I don't know what they sold for when they were available from GM. Yes, they are my spare set. It is somewhat ironic that the factory set in my 2005 XLR are near...

    Things to consider.... Does anyone know what the price on the headlight assemblies was back when Cadillac still had them in stock? What would a manufacturer have to charge to make it worthwhile to produce a new run of these assemblies? Considering less than 16,000 XLRs were built and there...

    Do you really think that will be a problem? The DOT marking is so small you almost need a magnifying glass to read it! Some states do not require a vehicle inspection. My state does, but I doubt that very many inspectors ever look for a DOT marking on a headlight or taillight lens. As long...

    Law of supply & demand. That business purchased the remaining stock of parts and hopes to resell them for a profit. They have a lot of money tied up in parts and are gambling that they eventually sell. Sure, the markup seems high, but it still is more financially viable than having an XLR...

    A couple of XLR trip ideas for 2017

    Bruce, research reveals that the route of the Woodward Dream Cruise is 16 miles long. I have to assume that there are hotels along the route that are located in areas one would want to stay in. I've never been to Detroit and am not familiar with the area. It would be great to stay in a nice...
