Hey C Gilliam, The first thing that I would check is to make sure all of your simulators are plugged in correctly. Any one of the eight simulators not making complete contact will cause your issue. In my car I didn't use the ride height simulators, only the shock simulators and I have not had...

Hey EJW 71 and dawnst3ar, I appreciate the props! Thank you very much. I'm so glad you guys found this information helpful! My wife and I just went to South Lake Tahoe over the long Memorial Day weekend. We drove up and back on CA Hwy 4, there is about 85 miles each way of twisty canyon road...

Hi FLORIDAXLR, It's been a while since I did the Bilstine shocks. Now that you mentioned it, I do remember a small issue with the tab on the simulator being different than the stock tab on the shock. I can't remember if I cut the tab off or just pushed it aside. I do remember once I pushed...

Hey PTpro, I'm glad you found my post informational. Nothing wrong with keeping your car stock. My XLR is almost completely stock except for Tires, Wheels, Shocks and Exhaust. I'm running 20"x 8.5" chrome five spoke Lexani wheels with 245/40/20 Delinte tires, Bilstein shocks and Magnaflow cat...

Hey XFireXLR and PTpro, Thank you guys. I spent many, many hours researching this topic over a six month period on three XLR and three Corvette forums to come up with a solution that worked for my 2004 XLR. I'm super happy with the ride and handling of my car. It literally rides like a...

Yes, Traction control, stability track everything works as it should. No problems with any of the systems. Thanks for asking. Mongoose also made the exact same changes on his XLR and I believe he's very happy with the way his car turned out too.

Hey XLR_7254, Glad I could help. I hope your experience will be as good as mine. My XLR drives like a brand new car. See Ya! Randy

Dude, I just went trough all of this with my XLR and spend months and months of researching it all over the internet. Here is my Tread on the subject. Got rid of my Mag Ride Shocks!

Yes vette100, just like you I thought that something was loose or broken in my front suspension. Isn't it a shame that at 30,000 miles your shocks are already shot and $5000 bucks to replace them. It's insanity! That's what motivated me to try to find a solution that made sense...

Yes, All four Bilsteins for $396 plus simulators for $218.88, grand total of $614.88. Plus the car rides like a dream, as a Cadillac should. Oh Yeah! My XLR has 81,000 miles, so I didn't fell bad that I had to replace the shocks. I have owned the car for two and a half years. It never road...

Hello everyone, I just wanted to let everyone know that it is possible to get rid of your Mag Ride Shocks on your XLR. I had a "clunk" in the front suspension going in and out of driveways and over speed bumps. I have several friends in the automotive repair business. I took my 04 XLR to three...

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I found the module exactly where you said it would be. The compartment was dry as a popcorn fart, but I inspected the drain tube as per you suggestion. Yup, it was full of debris and would probably flood if ever exposed to rain. An ounce of prevention... As...

Hi CCC, Could you please tell me where I can find the Suspension Control Module in my 2004 XLR? I replaced my shocks with Bilsteins and I need to deprogram the F55. The corvette guys have theirs in the trunk in the little well on the left side of the car. Where is it located in our XLR's...

The original owner had it painted, before I bought it. Looks like it was painted in May of 2009, I believe that's when he installed the XLR-V Hood. It was painted by: J&J Body Shop 50 Darling Way Roseville, CA 95678 916-783-5552

2004 Cadillac, XLR This car is incredible, beautiful in every way, stunning from every angle. It was painted 5 years ago. It’s the most beautiful black paint job you have ever seen. Has never been in an accident, everything lines up perfectly. Black on black with XLR-V Hood. I have owned...

Hey 05 Grand Daddy, I see you own a 52 Studebaker pick up. Here are some pics of my 49 Studebaker short bed pick up. It has a Chevy Camaro front suspension, 350 eng, 350 tranny combo. See Ya!

Hi All, Thanks again for the warm welcome everyone! You guys are a friendly bunch::). I'm glad everyone likes my cars. Yes, the three black cars are a handful to keep up. The XLR and the SSR aren't driven that much, just weekends. The HHR Panel gets the worst of it, it's my daily driver/...

The car in my Avatar is my 1938 Dodge Business Coupe. I have a small car collection and this is my Custom Car. It's been chopped 5", 1937 La Salle grill, hydraulic suspension front and back and much more. See Ya! Randy
