    Mild 2 Wild Exhaust

    No worries. Open the trunk and unhook the netting on the driver's side. In that same corner (by the taillight), the carpet/matting needs to be pulled back at an angle to work it out from under the fender trunk liner. There isn't anything attaching the carpet. It's bulking feeling when pulling it...

    Mild 2 Wild Exhaust

    The instructions where I purchased mine were very easy to follow. The area pictured in the instructions is located in the trunk on the driver's side. Pull the carpet back and there's a small cover over the hydraulic pump and magnetic ride controller. All the wires you need to access is in this...

    Fuel Pump & fuel gage sending unit.

    You have a first year XLR. First years of a new model often have more issues than later, even when it's not a Cadillac. I imagine the first year edition of your much beloved Corvette C7 will be generating similar commentary ten years from now. Doesn't mean it's a piece of trash. Update One...

    Amy came up with the design and I drew it up, then Beth and Tim did the rest. Our shirts are similar to the Dublin show shirts because Tim said everyone seemed happy with them so why mess with success. I just put new shoes on Victor-V a couple of months ago along with new TPMS sensors so...

    Shirts & Hats For the shirts and hats, I went with one of our members commercial embroidery. Tim's (nerkpowers) wife, Beth owns All Star Embroidery and they were kind enough to help with all the shirt and hat selections. The shirts are white performance polo (wicking type fabric) in both...

    Front Bumper Sensors

    As XLRATNG said, I replaced ours awhile back. I don't remember which way it turned :dunno: but it only fits one way. I first tried to go in under the bumper to remove the clip for the nozzle like the service manual instructed but the clip and nozzle seemed really fragile. So instead I gently...

    Amy and I remembered you commenting on "end of the month" inventory was a no go for you so we made sure to stay away from that time frame. We look forward to seeing you again. :wave:

    Trunk not closing on own after top cycle, only opens with top switch??

    Your instructions were right on point. My manual pretty much said the same thing. :D

    Amy and I really appreciate your input on the forum and yes, it gets easier once you understand the navigation of the Tech II. Thanks for all your help. :worship: Mike

    Trunk not closing on own after top cycle, only opens with top switch??

    Unfortunately, no! I rely on CC Clarke's recommendations and base any consumption on his trial and errors.

    Trunk not closing on own after top cycle, only opens with top switch??

    Learned to follow what the Tech 2 tells you to do - did a relearn and the first time didn't pull out the service manual when the Tech 2 said "follow service manual instructions." That relearn didn't take! Then I got the service manual out & followed a few extra instructions in there, &...

    I'm going to break out my Service Manuals this weekend and see if it will tell me where I can find the values. When I find it, I will let you know. Mike
