I had stopped the raising of the top mid-cycle, so I could put some silicone on the rubber seals, when the system lost pressure and sagged down. I tried to raise it with the top up/down button and it worked for a bit but seemed to have lost its place in the sequence and now it is up and in...

BEWARE!!! [see attached pictures] :mad:​ The oil pump is attached to the front of the crankshaft by way of the tightness of the crankshaft harmonic balancer bolt (#391)! The bolt sandwiches the balancer (#390) and the oil pump driver gear spacer (#467) to the crankshaft (#467 NOT a "spacer"...

I do not see any retention assembly going across the top of the battery in my 2008 XLR-V. Is there something clamping it by the base or am I missing some bracket?

Don't have time to reply? Do not sell studs? Tim, I find it interesting that, after taking months and still not having the time to contact me, you seem to have the time to rant on this site. Regarding your not selling head studs, why didn't you give credit to Jake when you were "writing the...

Carroll Cadillac's lack of comunication "It is equally not fair to read inaccurate false statements here on this forum! If you do not know me? If you have never spoke to me on the phone, maybe not even a text or email? Then say things you know nothing about? It isn't fair. You may even be the...

Working on my 2008 XLR V Progress? PLEASE HELP WITH DINO QUESTION I bought a new crate engine w/super charger and put it in, retaining the original, and am back on the road. I have been trying to establish phone communication with Tim Carroll since June with no luck..Got some texts saying that...

No one wants to talk If you tried to get in touch with carrollcustomcadillac.com I have not been able to contact them either. It looks like Cadillac. Left us hanging in the engine compartment as well as the tires for our car. Not nice for your premier enthusiasts. If any one can help with...

I just bought a 2008 XLR V with <10000 miles on it and the engine started knocking. :-( Upon draining the oil I found "sparkles" in it and after dropping the windage tray I found play in #1&2 rod bearings. I put a crate engine w/supercharger in the car but I would like to get the engine...

$50K "As Is" No Warrenty Just had to bite the bullet.

Sparkle cause I just purchased the car with 9601 miles on it [2008 XLR-V] and at 10100 the rod bearings shredded. Upon inspection, several of the rod bottom ends have about 1/8th" of play to them and the oil pan is coated with "sparkling sand" there also was a audible knocking sound before its...
