Did you ever find a grill, I have one from my 2005

I have a lower grille, minus the two solid pieces on the end, you would have to remove and install from your existing grille. I would want what I paid, $60.00 plus shipping. Uintah

Sold my 2005 XLR so I have a lot of OEM parts new/used I purchased as backup parts. If you contact me at gaegae77@msn.com I can supply additional information and pictures. Sold: 2005 Cadillac XLR Shop Service Manual OEM two volume, excellent condition $250.00...

Posted in wrong area, sorry. See new thread in parts for sale. Uintah

Yes you caught me, 255/45/18, to maintain the same diameter. Also, they are more of a touring tire rather than a performance tire. The next day my wife got caught in a snowstorm, weather channel blew that forecast, and they did just fine. Also take into consideration the speed rating for the...

Bridgestone Potenza RE970AS Pole Position I just installed a set of Bridgestone Potenza RE970AS Pole Position on stock 18 inch rims with no rubbing. They look much better on the rim and the ride/handling is exceptionally nice. I will never go back to run flats. Since they are not a run flat I...

I posted the information not just for your benefit, but also for anyone else reading the thread. By the way, you're welcome. Uintah

Thank you, I use the Kozak auto dry wash cloth by Lexol to wash the XLR. KozaK Auto Drywash I then clay bar the vehicle using Meguiar’s Ultimate quik Detailer as the lubricant. I also use Meguiar’s Cleaner Wax as the final coat. http://www.meguiars.com/en/automotive/products/ Meguiars...

Just some additional thoughts. On my car when I unlock the door with the fob nothing happens unless the seat is not in the correct memory exit setting, such as when my wife has driven the car and it is positioned to her memory exit settings. If I drove it last the seat will be set to my memory...

Along with the very good advice you were given by the others, you should also check the Auto Recall Settings in the DIC as shown on page 3-74 of the owners manual. Best of luck. Uintah

Those are very kind words, than you very much. Actually the car belongs to my wife. My wife has always been so good to me, I wanted to get her something special to match her. I have an old 77 Vette I run around in, when I am not fixing it. The products I use are Meguiar's. That particular day...

I received the same letter. Uintah

It is not a tire change story, but my worst experience was actually with what used to be my local Cadillac Service Department. They had replaced the rubber seal at the top of the front windshield and had not seated it properly, which produced a loud wind noise. They had replaced the leather on...

The aluminum ones I purchased are similar to the ones in the link, but the round part was taller and left textured on the bottom for better slip resistance. Like mentioned above I keep mine in a bag in the back for use while traveling. I handed mine to the tech in the store and made sure they...

The XLR is a very nice car to be using something cobbled together with parts of unknown (China ?) origin. I bought solid aluminum pucks (made in America) on Ebay for a very good price. Why take the chance for such a small difference in price? Uintah

I just recently struggled with that myself. Went with the Michelin run flats and they seem to ride so much better than the old ones. Got mine from Sams Club for a fair price, Michelin was having a special, and all turned out well. Was scary letting them have the car, but talked to the...

Thanks for the link and the enthusiasm for the XLR contained in your post. Every time I look at my XLR in the garage, it brings a smile to my face :) Uintah

Galen, very nice I had never noticed you painted the grill to match the car, looks so much better than grey. Nice old red brick buildings, is that Smithville. Grew up in the Ozarks, but not sure where that town is at. Uintah
