Most of the gang.... Here's a picture of the group here so far after dinner tonight. Heading out early tomorrow morning for the Makers Mark distillery. Looking forward to to see the others coming in later tomorrow. Safe travels.

And that is why I don't like anyone driving my cars!!! If you can't figure it out, you shouldn't be driving!!!, Supa included!!!:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Shocks seem to be one of the first things to go, even if you have no other problems with the vehicle. Whether your drive the car daily or not, as stated it is 14 years old+, and things are go to need replacing. You also need to realize, the first XLR's were basically test beds for the next...

See ya Tuesday!

We are in for the original plan A!

Great to hear from you Phrede! Been too long. I traded mine in on a new Z06 this past spring. If you have the time, you may consider driving over to Bowling Green next week. There is a 15th Homecoming going on and a lot of the old gang will be there. Sorry to hear you having some issues...

We are going to miss you at Bowling Green! You could always fly down for one or two days in the Bonanza!

Hopefully the dealership was smart enough to re-index the windows; that is the first step the top control module looks at to see what position the windows are in before starting the process. If they haven't been re-indexed the top will not go up or down. Also see if they have done a top relearn...

Chad, Supa & I will be there for the NCM tour. Being I am a Corvette owner, my admission is free, but I will pay you. I don't need no-neck Guido coming after me....again! :lol::lol: Btw, I think you have one person listed twice; #28 & #33, I think is the same person.

You need to look at the first post of this thread. That has the current list and you are in fact on it: #39 Chad popbigguy and Rogene Lowery Bob Fireduck and Marianne Kevin Cubby558 and Marion Grady Mike Victor-v and Amy XLRATING Jones Tim Nerkpowers and Beth Dan 05GrandDaddy and Wendy Doug...

The article I read above, says the fob battery was dead. You can still start the car with the fob in the slot in the glove box; even with no battery in the fob. Regardless, had he read the manual, he would have been able to get out of the car with the manual door release. Your last sentence...

Trapped for 14 hours...... He should have used that time to open the glove box and READ THE OWNERS MANUAL. He would have found out not only about the door releases, but could have slipped the dead fob into the slot and started the car. Some people shouldn't be driving these cars, the technology...

Yeah and I'm in a faster car now! I'm not going to go the same way. I'll find a different county to contribute to maybe! :laugh::laugh: see you in a few weeks!

IT CAN BE DONE, BUT... Mickeytee, I think you are thinking of the hood struts; which are really easy to replace. The trunks struts are a little more involved; I'm doubting you can do it in 2 minutes. Maybe more like 1/2 hour from start to finish. :lol::lol:

You are correct Amy. I just searched and found the thread and we had 32 XLR's at the car show on Saturday. Here is the link: 2013 XLR Bowling Green Plant Homecoming - Sept 28th, 2013

​I think we had somewhere between 25-30 XLR's there in 2013. There is a thread on this site with pictures as well.

Regarding the window, both will need to be re-indexed. Press and hold the window button down and let the window go all the way down and continue to hold the button down for 5 seconds. Now press and hold the window button up and let the window go up completely. Continue holding the button up for...

Any auto parts store can look up the AC/Delco parts you are asking about. Since you posted on here, you obviously have a computer. You can also search the internet for the parts. Some may even go out and replace them for you--try Autozone.

Where are all the pics from the event? Surely you guys took time from all your fun for some pictures!

I stand corrected, but researching this showed they were only offered in 2008 and 2009 at a $1200.00 price tag. You could do the swap with L.A. Wheel for about $850.00 when I did it back in 2008 for my 2006 V. With the low volume of V's, I'm sure Cadillac sent them out to be chromed, as the...
