This morning while putting the top up, as the front header pulled tight I heard a pop above my head and now the front header won't release. Any idea what might have snapped and how I can release the top manually on the front to find out?

The Xlr developed an oil leak last year. Ignored it for a while but it got worse so I took it to the dealer. They put die in the oil. Told me to drive it for a week and bring it back. Brought it back. They spent almost an hour on it. Told me cam covers, and timing chain cover. Updated cover so...

I'm having some oil leaks fixed by a local corvette mechanic I've used for years. My 04 is seeping from the can covers. He can't find gaskets for them and when he called the local dealer they couldn't find anything either. I can't imagine. Does anyone know what parts to use to stop the cam...

A buddy of mine has an 04 and wants to have his iPod play in the car. I have a lockpick and recommended it but they dont make them any more. I know there is another option but don't remember what it is. Any suggestions?

My 04 has a pretty harsh ride. Is every one that way or could the magnetic ride control be stuck in a stiff mode. I have no codes pertaining to that.

If anyone is interested, groupon has a 50% off deal for the corvette museum.

Here lately, when I get in my XLR and hit the start button it says no fob detected. It also does it when I push it again to stop it. If I scoot forward in the seat 4 inches everything works fine. I keep it in my right pocket with nothing else. It is not the fob or the battery because the doors...

I think my nav disk is crapping out. It works sometime and others it says no nav disk installed. I don't use the nav but I want the map on the screen. Does anyone have an old nav disk they want to sell after they upgraded. I hate to spend $200 on a new disk since I don't use it.

For about 3 or 4 months now, when I start the car my screen on the radio says no map dvd installed. It will display this for a while and then it will finally come on. Today it did it but it didnt come on. I put a DVD in and it played fine. That tells me, I think, The head unit is fine, so I...

I got some blue LED's for Trixie for christmas. They look great with the Blue LED Windrestrictor.

My 04 has a belt that sounds like crickets in the woods. I replaced the belts 2 years ago so I doubt their bad. Any thoughts what might cause this? I thought there might be a TSB on this but I can't find it.

My x has developed a belt chirp. Mainly in the morning. It seems to go away as you drive for a while. It sounds like crickets. I had new belts last year. Any idea what to look for?

I just installed new brakes on the xlr. mine squealed and one or more rotors was warped. I bought 4 drilled and slotted rotors with zinc coating, which looks great, plus ceramic pads for $221 from Brake Overstock on EBay. They look great and the car stops so much smoother and quieter. Who says...

Does anyone know if it is harder on the trans to drive the XLR in manual mode than drive, or does it matter.

We wanted to thank Kathy and Bruce for all the time and effort it takes to put an event together. As always, it was nice to meet new members and catch up on past events with the others. We are looking forward to the National Corvette in Bowling Green, already made reservations. I think 5AM...

I've developed a strange problem with the garage door opener in the visor. I have it programed to open two of my doors. It used to open both doors at the corner of the street so the doors are open when I get there. Lately one of the doors will still open from the corner but the other will only...

I decided to start a project today I have been thinking about for a while. Since I have an IPhone and a lockpick installed in the XLR I wanted a dock for it. I got to looking at options and really hit the jackpot. I found that if you remove the ashtray the hole is the exact same size as a...

I'm finding when I travel and load the trunk at times the tire rubs on the outside. I see this as not acceptable. I was looking at the spring and saw it had adjusters on it. I'm thinking I can raise it just a little to correct the problem. My question is, if I raise it 1/2 inch will that hurt...

I went to Florida last week. The Nav routed me down OK. when I came back it told it to go home. The stupid thing tried to route me home through louisville. 990 miles instead of through Nashville 770 miles. Once I got home I have tried to route back down and it always picks through Louisville...
