    ENGINE HOT - A/C OFF message on DIC

    My 2006 XLR-V has been doing that once every 6 to 9 months for the last 8 years and I have not replaced anything. Three different Cadillac dealership experts said they could not pin point the issue and to wait until something has a permanent fail. After 5 or 6 times of using the car from a...

    TPS sensor showing flat when it's not

    In that case I suggest you get the correct TPMS part number for your vehicle and then shop it on Ebay to get the best price. OEM from dealer or parts store is extremely expensive in the neighborhood of $175 each. I just bought 4 brand new from a Chevy Dealer on-line through Ebay for $125, had...

    CD Error message

    MAKE SURE YOU USE A GENUINE NAVIGATION DISK OR NOT EVERYTHING WILL WORK PROPERLY I once used a bootleg navigation disk for several years before it started acting up. I thought it was my navigation unit going bad. That unit cost over $2300 to repair and replace. Then I remembered that...

    2006 Compression Test

    Come on guys, you are talking about a nine year old car that still kicks a$$. My opinion is; if your 2006 V doesn't burn oil and runs close to what it used to, be happy, don't worry! Mine, which I bought new, has 70K miles on it and doesn't burn a drop of oil and still runs with the big dogs...

    Help! PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISOR REPLACEMENT ON 2006 XLR-V

    SUN VISOR On the new replacement visor, I noticed a little square plastic loop. Does the plastic cover have a male end that goes into that loop? Do I slide the narrow knife into the split in the plastic and just pull it down? I assume it there is a male end that is in the loop, it will...

    Proud XLR owner with a problem

    At one time, I had the same problem, but luckily found the issue causing it! I once had the same problem and my dealership mechanic found it to be my old fashion Sun Pass attached to my windshield for easy passing through toll areas. The Sun Pass transmitter would not let my electronics...

    Anyone find a good aftermarket extended warranty for a V?

    After a lot of research, Warranty Direct appears to be the one giving warrant coverage almost exactly like the Cadillac Extended Warranty program that will not re-cover my 2006 XLR-V which now has 62,000 miles on the odometer. Warranty direct will cover it up to 5 more years and 144,000 miles...
