Thanks for the article Cubby. Just wondering if you miss the uniqueness your XLR at all: yes I know that you have that beast of a Vet to keep you happy however! Hope you and Sup are doing well, Hugs from us both!
Welcome to the forum. Hope you get your problems sorted and I would not be surprised if many of them are battery related. As per the cruise control, the only trouble I ever had with mine was due to a juicy bug splattering on the lense panel in front of it. It had translucent guts (and no body...
Jim61, just wondering if you got your problem solved? Hopefully yes. Do yourself a favor and purchase a Battery Tender, the can not overcharge your battery and the keep you battery in top shape. We installed the adapter piece that stays under the hood and all you have to do is plug the two...
I am posting this for a friend and forum member Greg aka: Tikiman100, as he has been having trouble posting here. I am hoping his loss will benefit some forum members looking for parts etc.
On Friday March 27 Greg he went out on a errand in his 2007 XLR-V and had a horrible encounter with...
Haha! I like your style Gord and especially your 'subject matter'. Wondering if you have curly hair now after your experiment with that knife and the receptacle?
uShip sounds like an interesting option, I will have to check into that, thanks. I really want to pick up the engine myself so I...
There certainly is lots to do on the car but 'installing the turbo' is one of those jobs that can NOT be done. That is because we took the engine to D&D Aluminum V8 in Michigan before we drove to Florida. The rebuild was competed 2 weeks ago: he knew in the outset that we would not pick it up...
You must have had a 63 as they did not make 64 Olds Turbo cars. If in fact, if it was a 64 then someone put a 1962 or 1963 215 aluminum V8 turbo engine in it. (or was the turbo mounted to a cast iron block?) If it had the Jetfire trim/logos etc it had to be a 63 as the bodies were different...
Pretend I posted this Friday!
So I did not have a chance to post this Friday March 27th for obvious reasons which I explain. Steve & I 'winter' in Port Charlotte, Florida and usually stay until the end of April. However, being we are Canadians and the uncertain times with CV19 we decided to...
Just found this on Bring a Trailer - if anyone interested, sale ends at 4 pm-ish today
21k-Mile 2004 Cadillac XLR for sale on BaT Auctions - ending March 12 (Lot #28,960) | Bring a Trailer
I am respectfully asking all XLR owners who read this to please chime in if you have the same wonderful experience as I personally do with my XLR. Nobody ever sits on this forum to report how flawless their car is - they only post when they have problems. Rocket 83402 Please do not despair...
No I don't but most 'car dealers' do not do the work on the audio systems, they work with a local Automotive Audio specialty shop so ask the service writers at your nearest Cadillac dealer who they use, then go talk to them and see if you like them etc. At least that shop should know about the...
Hey Ron? Welcome! I am a Canadian that winters in Port Charlotte Florida so we may run into each other. I drive an 09 Red XLR (that is here in FL right now) or you may see Steve & I out there in our 65 Malibu Wagon (pale blue with a white roof) or our 99 Suburban - lowered, white, chrome...
Good 'exposure' article. This should be sent to every 'inbox' at GM Cadillac division and demand they release the manufacturer rights!
Why A Cadillac XLR Brake Light Can Cost More Than A Used Corolla
Well. As I see it: there is someone who is working on coming up with a solution to our parts/headlight problem and others asking questions and wanting answers. Not sure about an 'unproductive' thread. From what i understand, you just do not 'toss an item' in front of a scanner and ask a...
Welcome to the forum. Love your 'sideways' comment on the Pantera: sounds like fun to me!
I take it your 'lights' are different from stock on you car?: I could not seem to find any photos of your car. However: if your car has 'different from stock' parts on it, that is just fine. Yes, I...
Just in case there is still any confusion: ALL 2009 'base model' cars are called Platinum models: you could not purchase any other way. 2009 base models ALSO happen to have the V hood with the raised center section. However the hood itself is not called a Platinum hood. It is the V model...
Hey y'all, I have not been on the forum much this past summer. Some of you may had seen my post that I had to leave my XLR in Florida for the summer. Hubby Steve had fast advancing cataracts and took himself off the road in early March so when it was time to drive home we only had one driver...
