    Best Exhaust? 2008 model

    Best Exhaust? 2008 model

    why do you feel that way? the ones i see have the pipes welded together to share a crossover. the factory pipe is just a length of pipe to do the crossover ( which makes it more of a balance pipe than a true crossover) .the only true crossover I have seen is the magnaflow. I never bought one of...

    Help! XLR suspension

    sorry, nothing will work without a ride control module. without it you get the 80mph light. You can replace the shocks with none mag and simulators but you will also have to replace the suspension module. they run 2000-2500 used on ebay.

    06 headlights have the 10 wire connector. They articulate. The 04-05 do not . the burned upper lens do this on all the lights no matter what years. 06 -09 lights can be made to work o n04-05 but 04-05 lights will not work on 06-up. And yes some have made them work by cutting up a light and...

    My baby is gone

    trannies dont sell so a shop that breaks cars would have plenty of them . also the parts needed are cheap and plentiful. I would think 2K sounds low but with a rebuilder and people on salary very do-able.

    Got rid of my Mag Ride Shocks!

    you are only partially right .I am not going to try to explain to someone that does not know basics what the rear springs do. In fact a stiff sprung rear will cause you to loose traction in ice and snow not improve. That's why suvs and pickups without 4wd that are sprung stiff in the rear slid...

    Got rid of my Mag Ride Shocks!

    Ronald adding the rear sway bar is a good improvement .In Florida you dont have many curves except that good one between Arcadia and Brandenton. The rear sway bar really does nothing on the straight road. its mostly on turns that it keeps the car flat. Like getting on the interstate loops. if...

    I would get the codes read. Gm is bad and 04 -05 xlrs get a dirty throttle body and will run like garbage. it will also turn on both lights. Its not real hard to take it off and give it a good cleaning. I need to check and see if 04 can be done without an idle relearn. if it cannot you will...

    Shocks

    no one has ever claimed the z06 shocks ride like a truck. they ride like a sports car just as the xlr was meant to be when new.
