Hood-side to side space Took your advice and just finished adjusting my hood. It was a little tricky art first, going from side to side, loosing opposite set of bolts,sometimes not enough and sometimes too much, etc. Anyway about 1 hour and a half, now I can do it in 30 minutes, ha ha, I spent...

Finally got tired of my hood being out of adjustment. Got the front to back done (very simple) and the up and down done (hard to figure out, it was the hinges needed to adjust) but now the side to side. That appears to be a problem as I am not able to see any way to adjust it? I plan on doing...

Sorry! I don't have a computer or a cell phone and even if I did I wouldn't know how to do it, I just have a MBOX. Anyway the struts I bought are Sachs and your are correct they are 1/4"-3/8" too long. I can't even guess how much range the travel limit screws removed allows for but it worked...

The manual I bought is: GMC Service Manual for 2008 Cadillac XLR/XLR-V. There is 4 large volumes and 17 sections.

I finally got around to putting on the struts today so my top will operate as it should. Back in December of 2019 my top didn't work and I posted a thread and got a couple of answers which was helpful. Anyway I search the many post and threads here and everyone of them stated that you can't...

Thanks for the info; I completely forgot about about the ABS system. I never have used them (fortunately) therefore it slipped my mind. I don't have a computer, just an MBOX so I can't send you a picture. If you change your own oil you probably have low ramps, just put the car on them about...

long tall sally Thanks for the reply: Anyway to carry on just a little more, my homemade ramps first board is a 2'' x 10'' and the height is 1 1/2''. I tried that and it would be high enough (not as good as 3'') but I think it would be in improvement. By looking at it compared to the...

Just finished changing the oil with my homemade ramps and noticed something else. My ramps raises the front end about 3" and suddenly I looked at it and realized I like it that way. Has anyone done this or heard of such a thing? I have a acquaintance that said he knows someone who can do it...

It's me again, I discovered something interesting that I like to share with you. I opened my trunk and put my stick in place to hold it open and left it for about 48 hours. This morning I took it out and the trunk lid stayed open, so I closed the trunk and started the car and wa-la the top...

It as been working fine since it was new. Now nothing happens when I push the button on the console, no sound or click-nothing. I check the passenger fuse box and there is only one that says: conv/top trunk release 15A. My release button on the dash,fob and the center of the trunk lid all...

dumb question-stupid answer thanks for the suggestion however i did what tiger and steve answered and it work fine. by the way that question was ask was a year ago i.e. 2017 but thanks again for your help.

i have a 2008 xlr base and i live alone:: dumb question is; does anyone knows how i can check if my back-up lights work or not? they only come on when the engine is running and in reverse. the parking brake only works when in 'park' or 'neutral' and the it releases in drive or reverse--and it...

new paint job problems. thanks for replying--yes they did, as a matter of fact they remove every body part there is except the roof. i told them not to as i was afraid they wouldn't have the knowledge to remove and replace it without problems. they painted everything not only the outside but...
