As for the sleep mode, on my XLR, the cigar lighter doesn't go to sleep, it's always powered up. I have my sirius unit powered by the cigar lighter and if I don't unplug it it remains on all the time. My XLR didn't come with the option sirius radio.

ccclarke: Question.. When my top is being lowered and the left side window lowers, there's a filler piece that pops into place. On the passenger's side of the car that small panel doesn't come up as high as it should and the little tab on it doesn't fit into the holder on the car, I have to lift...

From what I just saw on TV it's starting to warm up for you poor people stuck in that cold snap. I'm lucky, we had 27 degree weather for about a week then it returned to our normal winter weather of 40's in the day and mid 30's during the night. The lowest I've seen was 34 degrees. I work at the...

True but then they can watch the lights either in their rear view mirror or turn around and watch the lights. I use them all the time and for me, they work just fine.

I dont think my thermo-meter goes that low!

I work in the Portland Oregon city limits and Portland has one of the highest auto thefts in the country. There are not too many metal places to hide a key on an XLR and the thiefs are not stupid, they'd find that key and be "Gone in Sixty Seconds". We have our keys attached to the FOBs. They...

I didn't know the above. Thanks for the info!

Happy New Year to all! My 2014 have MANY sunny days for top down cruising.

I also purchased an extended warr. via my credit union. After I got the car home I find I need a new left front shock. My EW also stated shocks were a wear item and was not covered. Almost $800.00 later all is fine. I'll have to look but I think I paid $1500 for the EW for 36 mo / 100K miles...

Merry Christmas to all! Audrey & Mark

That's fine if you want to get under the car but not much help if you want to remove a wheel. I have a 3 ton jack and I have to drive up on a couple of 2x4's with the front wheel so I can get the jack under the jacking point. I put a piece of 2x4 on the jack's platform or what ever it is...

Story of MY life! My 88 Vette uses Belstine shocks that no other Vette uses. I had an Fo*d SHO that used parts that no other Fo*d used... Now I have a Cadillac that uses "unique" components... My fingers are crossed!! :D

O U C H !!!

$638 with shipping and they are a special order so you can not return them. I replace my left front in July.

I have not tried it but with the engine running and no FOB and the DIC reporting no FOB, can you change the setting for auto locking the doors, and disable the setting so the car will not auto lock after the engine is shut down and the doors are shut? :dunno:

Bruce thanks for the pictures and some of the XLR's history. We saw our first XLR in a parking lot when the female owner got in and drove away. We didn't get a look at the inside but Audrey and I really liked the car from that first look. I never thought I would own one a few years later. I...

Here's an idea. If you have Onstar that is active, tell them a valet will be parking your XLR and to limit the car's speed. If they can slow the car down if it is being driven while stolen, they should be able to limit the speed it can be driven at. I'd contact them to find out. I don't have...

Park Brake Shoe Replacement Removal Procedure Caution: Refer to Brake Dust Caution in Service Precautions. Remove the brake rotor. Remove the wheel bearing/hub. Rotate the parking brake adjusting nut until all park brake shoe adjustment has been removed. Remove the parking...

Red Line Water Wetter claims to do the same and you don't have to jump hoops or buy other products to use it. I've tried it in an L98 engine and it didn't lower my coolant temp at all. A remap of the ECU and a 160*F thermostat DID lower the temp. I was not having a problem, I wanted to run...
