    2005 Wood Dash

    When I first bought my 07 I tried to get a dash wood kit and found that most suppliers had quit selling them for the XLR's. When I called a couple I got the same answer--they had problems matching the factory wood and ending up with kits being returned so they quit carrying them.

    Oil leak survey

    When I bought my 07 it had 34000 miles . Soon after I got it I had a small oil spot on the floor and the dealer replaced the timing cover. A few weeks later I had another small spot and as it was under warranty the dealer pulled the engine and did a reseal on the lower end. They had it for 6...

    SRX owners

    We drove a 2013 SRX and thought it was a very good car but they did not have a color we wanted and before they found one we drove a 2013 Lincoln MKT. It was so much better than the Cadillac we now have one sitting in our garage.

Got them from Discount tire for 1490.00 which included the certificates for free replacement if needed. As runflates are not supposed to be repaired if you pick up a nail etc I thought...

    On Star Questions

    You are correct--Turn by Turn will work in the 2007 cars, however I like to have my route downloaded to the GPS system and this can not be done in the XLR's. In my Buick I can go in to my computer and load my trip info and send it to On_star and have it downloaded--not so in the XLR!!

    On Star Questions

    I found out the hard way that On-Star will only give Turn by Turn Directions in our cars. I was on a 2500 mile trip and thats all they would give me and I could not enteraddress in because of a defective disk. A couple of times I did get both systems working at the same time--my nav trying to...

    Important! My engine is being overhauled....as if the.key fob issue was not enough....

    My next question to them would be how long did they run it before they decided they had no oil pressure and needed a new pump! As an old aircraft mechanic if we found something like that in an engine it was time for a new engine!

    programming universal home remote

    Call Cadillac Customer Service and they will give you a phone number to call for help. Some doors will not work with this system (such as my door) and if that happens they will send you a receiver to mount by your opener that will work.
