    Water in Trunk

    07 only has a hole in the bottom, no hose to get clogged. Better option but not a true fix.

    Cadillac XLR Parts Sources

    Tim, you have to call ahead with J&J. They don’t let people out in the yard and don’t pull parts onsite. They schedule removal in order of request and online orders keep them busy. Otherwise they were good to deal with, I was there once.

    Tech II Clone

    I have used one for 7 or 8 years without any issue. Seems well made.

    In search of , Passenger Side Headlight Washer Nozzle Cover 04-09 Cadillac XLR 12335888

    They originally quarter turn and lock on. If it came off, it’s probably broken. You could superglue it on or get a replacement. Word of advice, do not try to twist it on with sprayer in bumper cover or you will mar the paint. Take it out, put the cover on and put it back in. I know it’s a lot...

    2009 platinum

    09 only offered the V and the Platinum, no base model. Platinum had leather interior and different rims, grill than base models did. Might be the high mileage that kbb is knocking it down on. Just for reference, I have about 247000 on my 07 v. Cycle the top several times. Check the shocks. If...

    2007 XLR-V Dash pad

    Ya, my 07v is also. I was thinking about looking up an auto upholstery shop to have them look at it.

    XLR trunk won't open all the way

    I would suggest checking the trunk divider switch, I think it’s in the right tower where the divider clicks into.

    No power to top. Help

    That’s dealer pricing for you, I got one from rockauto for about $330 and took me about 30 min to install.

    2007 XLR-V EXSHAUST

    Opening (loud) or Closing (quite)? System when functioning properly will close the valves on startup. They will be closed under 3500(maybe 3000?) rpms. They open under high rpm via computer network signal to the controller in the left rear truck well. ( yes, same place top control module is and...

    Help! XLR 2004

    I had similar problem couple of months ago. Truck would open about 6 inches and close back down. If I opened a few times it would eventually work. It would stay open once it did open so it wasn’t the struts. It turned out to be the latch mechanism.

    Help! Looking for XLR Mechanic, Philadelphia Area

    Fuel system is same as a c5/c6 corvette. Fuel pump replacement can cost a pretty penny at the dealer. Think $1800+. It’s a bit labor intensive but not hard to do. Most general mechanics should be able.

    Help! ‘08 trunk closing on its own

    I would bet that you have a bad switch in the trunk release latching assembly. I had similar problem that the truck lid would open a couple of inches and then close no matter how I opened it. Replacing the latch assembly fixed it.

    Trunk doesn't open.

    So my trunk lid started a while back, opening about 4 inches then slamming shut again. Than it would open. Got worse, it would take 6 or 7 tries before it would open. I replaced the trunk latch the other day (available from GM for about $350 or rockauto) And it fixed the issue. Not too hard...

    Help! 2009 XLR Base - Backup/Rear Camera

    FYI, this is not a plug and play installation. You may have a very hard time finding an installer for it. Search for a thread APP Radio and there is detailed info on this.

    Battery Issue

    Maybe a stretch but try disconnecting both battery cables and hold them together for about 5 min. Then reconnect to battery and try again.
