Hi and welcome! :) Well, back to the repair shop asap I would say. Quite obviously they've missed something, which with the cooling system could be as simple as a cap or could be as bad as a complete radiator. :( They do need to honor their work though, so the sooner you throw it back at them...

Today was another day of cleaning up suspension and brake calipers. I'm sooooo slow! It's the weather I guess (hot), and the summer chores that interrupt things, and the fact that the tasks at hand are not horrid, just repetitive! Maybe I should have stuck with motorbikes...1 front wheel, 1...

December of last year, I bought one from this seller: Cadillac GM OEM 04-08 XLR-Grille-Lower 15247797 | eBay Complete end to end as indicated in the listing diagram. My 'cost math' is maybe a bit different from yours (shipping / duty / taxes...) so you might find a better price, but point...

Pro'lly less expensive to scour the web from sites or dealers on your side of the fence. i.e. 2004-2008 Cadillac XLR Lower Grille 15247797 | GMPartOnline Shiny...new... yum.... :lol:

Hi Jeff, That thing is a potentiometer of sorts. I suppose it could decide to quit outright but I seem to recall that the top has to be cycled as though new, in order for all these "switches" and such to get their settings, i.e., it's not on and off best as I understand, it's ohm value 1 versus...

Howdy - welcome! :) Try this search perhaps? aftermarket stereo installation site:xlr-net.com - Google Search HTH! Gord :thumbsup

Are you okay with the fact that your cross-drilled brake rotors are all only left-hand side directional? Of course elaboration regarding this curious 'oversight' or intentional faux-pas from General Motors, might be fun.

Isn't that lovely - nice work! :thumbsup Looks great with the bright shiny wheels and the black touches here and there... congrats! :)

Just need to do a little shopping. I might recommend: 2004 CADILLAC XLR 4.6L V8 Shock Absorber | RockAuto They're OEM and probably the best new price you'll find anywhere. Good luck! Gord :thumbsup

Morning Ronald, You are most welcome! Isn't that neat! Beautiful, beautiful area of the state. I've visited there many times and always found it very enjoyable and relaxing. :thumbsup

Howdy, First off, what tires are you using? Unfortunately the 'ride height bolts' (often referred to as 'lowering bolts') come with the springs. From what I understand, there are 'lowering bolts' available most specifically for the Corvette gang, and I don't know if they could handle being...

Fire up the gas-axe, I need some bracketry! Morning, Would you (or anyone) perhaps have the two rear brackets (pictures) which support the roof frame? They by no means have to be perfect. Mine are actually fine, I just want a set to fidget with. I figure any car that truly needs these as...

2004 CADILLAC XLR 4.6L V8 High Mount Brake Light | RockAuto New, with a guarantee. HTH! Gord

Hello and... you're welcome. I would really like to see good pictures of the 'damaged' areas of the weatherstrips if possible. I'm reading your two posts here and I can actually feel my blood pressure rising as this seems so completely in the wrong direction, it's upsetting. If I may, who...

Love the all tinted windows. :thumbsup For good or bad, 70% (which is the factory tint level) happens to be the provincial maximum for front door windows here. :( All other windows you can do what you'd like - windshield, only a sunstrip of max 6 inches. Fines for not obeying...astronomical...

Hi & welcome! You have a little typo in your part number: should be 88956610, 2004-2009 Cadillac XLR Lower Weather-Strip 88956610 | GMPartOnline , which as we see is a discontinued part - scrapyards only I'd wager. :( That said, have you studied yours for damage at all? That strikes me as a...

Goodness gracious! That must be some tool / tool set! Oil filter wrench, Italian style? :lol: Maserati has defective knobs? Curious as all my life I felt it was the other way around. :lol: Pr'olly not. No need for such a pricey tool / tool set best as I know of and the knobs on / in XLR...

Ignore 'em! Drive the car and enjoy it! :thumbsup

I don't think any XLR is / was supposed to be a 'practical' car. It's supposed to be for fun - a second, or a third car, for those moments you want to treat yourself to something perhaps a bit special. And special can be like any exotic or semi-exotic, and that means some headaches of course...

Lower mileage if it's confirmed. You see, if it is an '04 with 40k, that's 2,500 miles a year, or...nothing. Sunday drives only more than likely, obviously a cherished car. Yup, look at the headlights - see if they're toasted at all. Taillights - see if they work as designed. Depending where...
