Retractable top Hi BobbyT The thermistor is the thermometer/resistor for the overheat of the motor, if the motor gets too often hot, its could get the thermistor of been defective. Is it the motor or the thermistor, or both…. the expert will tell. Good choice to call ''TH Hydraulic'' IAN...

Debris in the well BoobyT There is on RH ( and LH ) side a water drain tube for the well, if you can get your XLR on hoist at the next oil change, check the end of it. The tube end is flat, to stop the little beasts, but it will get the water to exit. Make sure it is free of debris or of some...

Hi Sally First, this C6 used shock stem is lower because its oil or gas were lost, also its inside pressure..... usely the stem is much higher then the New B8, that means the Bilstein shock is still a lot shorter. ( Also the used shocks lay lower and the top bushing is already higher) As Hans...

After market accessorie. Sally. I have heard the same, perhaps they could not solve the problem, however I like to read some one who did installed an after market sound system with success and they are please with it. I personally stay away and from having problems with the car, the XLR...

GM vs Bilstein shocks Hi XLR members I do not want again to debate the function of the suspension springs for the height and the shocks as a damper of the suspension, as we all agreed with it. Enclosed is a photo that shows a B8 Bilstein shock and a C6 GM shock, as you can appreciate the B8...

Racing suspension vs public road car suspension. Sally. You are talking of a racing car while I report my find of what Bilstien B8 shocks are saying on a promotion internet video, for their products. Get back on the public road were the suspensions are of differents specifications and needs...

Lid openig with a dead battery and a FOB progammed. Cubby. Your argument is fine for progamming a FOB transmitter, Sally argument is also fine for an XLR with a dead car battery. No power on the XLR…. the hydraulic system can not work, opening the lid manually is not easy when it unlatch, a...

fe1 vs fe3 heights. Sally. Get on the debate level, the travel lenght on a fe1 Soft ride Acdelco shock is 4.42'' and for a fe3 stiffer ride shock it is 3.75''. ( perhaps the same for the Bilstein B8) Obviously the shocks are dampers, stopping the up and down movements of a car, the spring is...

Soft or stiffer ride Sally. Why some peoples are changing their regular shocks while the car is still on warranty, it indicate that because of their style of driving they want a stiffer suspension….. and why not. The Bilstein promotions videos explain that the B8 is stiffer without...

FOB Keys Hi DB2…… If the car battery is weak it could send some poor energy to the modules, that is happening very often. The FOB keys that you programmed, are they new ones and is the replacement parts are for the XLR, if so, is the batteries for the FOB keys are new. Find enclosed copies...
