Can someone post the alignment specs for our cars (camber, toe, etc.)? Base model. Looks like I might have too much negative camber unless slightly more inside tire wear is normal. Any help would be appreciated. Doug

I have a base model 07 XLR that I bought with 37K miles. It now has 53K and the both front shocks are leaking oil. My question to you guys is does this seem like a reasonable time at which the shocks might be worn out or does it signal hard use by the previous owner? If the front shocks are...

My 2007 is making a noise that sounds like it is coming from the gas compartment. Could it be the cap? I seem to remember something about this from previous discussions. Can anyone help? Is there a TSB on this? Thanks Doug

Hello all, Does anyone know the torque specs for the above? Mine is the base model. I've tightened the links to 56 ft lbs but don't know the proper setting for these 4 bolts that hold the front sway bar in place. Thanks for your help. Doug

One of mine is out. I see the triangular access space under the hood - not sure my hand fits in there. Is there some secret to replace the bulb? Thanks, Doug

So I took the XLR to the dealer for some other service work and mentioned this to the tech. He said I need a fuel/air induction service. Can someone tell me what that is and if there is something I can do to resolve this slightly sticky throttle. Dealer wants $159 for this service and said it...

I'm looking to replace the ignition button on my car as it is split down the middle. I'm not very good with things like this so my sense is to take it to the dealer but before I do that I'm wondering how hard this job is - I don't want the dealer to tell me there's 2 hours worth of labor just...

I have an XLR with 44,000 miles. I'm considering trading it for another XLR with only 34,000 miles. Both cars are the same year. Assuming the same or very similar condition how much would you be willing to pay for the lower mileage vehicle, my car and how much cash?

I have a 2007 base XLR and while I've attached the XLR-V rear sway, the softness of the setup is not to my liking. I'm wondering if any of you guys could point me in the right direction to correct this. Will just lowering the car tighten the suspension up? Do I need to replace the shocks as...

Hi All, I purchased an 07 Xenon Blue XLR in June of this year - love the car! I've noticed on first start up that if I drive away after my typical 1 to 1.5 minutes I seem to get some engine noise, like there is not enough lubrication. This is driving away slowly and not letting the revs go...

Just wondering the mileage of your vehicles. Does anyone think 37,000 miles is a lot for an 07 XLR? The pricing guides all credit the vehicle for low miles but I'm not so sure this is low mileage when it comes to an XLR - your thoughts?

One of the vehicles that I'm looking at is an 06 XLR that is certified, but is currently for sale at a non Cadillac dealer (it previously was listed by a Caddy dealer and therefore retains it's certification). My understanding is that this car is not eligible for Major Guard warranty because...

I don't even own an XLR (yet) but I'm wondering if anyone has experience with both cars (08 and the earlier ones) to be able to give a first hand account of handling differences, etc. I've read the blurb about the changes that were made, but I'm wondering how those changes play out in the real...
