    2008 Advice and Parts Availabilty

    I would go through every function of the car and make sure all works properly. Carfax the vin,check all body panel gaps. They should all be equal and the same. I believe with a carfax it tells when it went to the dealer. At least mine did. Find the dealer that did the servicing and look at the...

    Help! starting

    The reason why it worked back in the day of carbs and throttle bodies was everything was manual. Majority of cars today are drive by wire. Meaning theirs no manual linkage going to throttle. Theirs wires. Way back when you pushed the accelerator their was a rod or cable that moved the throttle...

    Proud XLR owner with a problem

    I think it has more to do with the quality and reliability of the parts. I have a 04 with a battery that the original owner replaced in 08 with under 4000 on it. I purchased in 11 and haven't had a single issue with anything. The car has had a battery tender on it when not driven since I've...

    Help! Paint Job

    Black is a pretty easy color to match shade wise. Now fadding match might be another issue. Now might be a good time to respray the entire car. Get rid of those rock chips up front and get your self that triple black they offered in later year on the cts v. Paint to me is everything on a car...

    Tech 2 pays for itself!

    Question you say the trunk was accidentally left open. Do you mean wide open and if not wide open how does it stay partly open? When I first had mine I had went to the store parked way out in nomans land. Not a car around. I do my shopping come out of the store and my trunk is wide open. :( No...

    Tech 2 pays for itself!

    You gotta love when something works out for the good. Nice job! I don't know about you saying "There's just no fixing something when it's getting old, sometimes you need to replace things." If that was the case we'd all be with twenty yr. olds. :lol::thumbsup:blinzel:

    2006 XLR V

    I would say anywhere between 25-35. I just looked at one locally about a month ago 04 4000 miles crimson red for 20k. Sold before I could get my hands on it. :mad: condition means a lot. Dealer,private sale?

    Proud XLR owner with a problem

    I would look into why that tore. Your rear side window could be out of alignment. When the top gets put up the window could b catching on the seal which caused the rip?

    New battery, still won't start?

    You said you replaced the battery. I would check your connections first. Just make sure their tight. That clicking you hear should be the brake switch/relay. Never good when you have a intermittent electrical problem. Good luck let us know if you figure it out. Funny how the dealership...

    mufflers

    I also installed a different set of mufflers. Hookers they sound great. Makes it sound like a clean throaty v8 when on it. A touch louder than stock throughout the rpm unless you mash it then she screams. :thumbsup

    recover seats

    Using a leather conditioner will help those cracks or rippling. Leather needs to stay lubed. Someone told me a log time ago and never forgot it." Lubrication is important in every aspect of life!":laugh:

    changed out exhaust???

    I can say that exhaust of a c6 will directly bolt on to a xlr. I purchased a h-pipe back setup off someone had it ceramic coated and bolted it up. I didn't like the sound of the stock c6 mufflers they weren't throaty enough so I took the axle back tubes off cut the mufflers off and welded on a...

    Help! Need information on XLR-V

    Hey good to see you back. I also had emailed the dealer twice about three weeks ago. No response. I tried calling once and didn't get a person just some answering service. Look good enough for me to drive out only two-three hrs away but don't even know if they still had it. I thought also that...

    A cross between a Corvette and a Cadillac (not an XLR)?

    They should have the "godfather" xlr parked next to that thing. Definately hit every branch falling out of the ugly tree! Maybe this guy designed it?
