    So Long. It Was A Great Ride

    And then it wasn't. If you've read about my journey with my XLR, then you know what happened with my XLR 2 years ago. Suffice it to say, Sterling McCall Cadillac had it for a year for a steering gear problem, and the next thing you know I'm being told the shocks need replacement, the EBCM was...

    When It Rains, It Floods

    Got in the car today to take a small Sunday cruise, waited for the Kenwood stereo to boot up, and son of a *****, it has an endless boot loop. Means an IC board has fried. Have to contact Kenwood tomorrow to see about sending off for repairs. Some Kenwoods are able to get reflashed on the...

    UPDATE ON MY 2006 AND DEALER FIASCO

    Middle of January I get a call from Sterling McCall Cadillac about my XLR that's been there since January 2019. In essence, they said we can't fix it, come get it, and bring our loaner back. So we go up there a couple of days later. Talk to the 3rd service manager since last year. They have no...

    End of my XLR?

    Some of the regular members may remember me talking about putting my XLR in a Houston Cadillac dealer last year. I was given a loaner car. This was January 15, 2019. A lot has transpired in the 13 months it's been in the shop. Fix one problem, then find another problem that they generated...

    ECBM Update

    I've sent off my defective ECBM to Module Repair Pro located in California last week, and got a return tracking number yesterday. The guy I talked to was very much familiar with this module and since the 05/08 Vettes share the same part, told me he's repaired thousands of them over the years...

    2006 EBCM Needed

    We all know this part has been discontinued. Anyone have a working module for sale? Know of anyone with one for sale? Anyone have any information on refurbished/rebuilt modules or who does that kind of work? Thanks

    Console Cover Lid

    I don't know how many XLRs are out there that have a broken console lid. Mine was broken from the get go and I fixed it to keep shut using some velcro strips. The only problem was I got tired of hearing a rrrrip everytime I opened the console. Last week I bought a set of various sized magnets. I...

    Variable Effort Steering rack

    The actuator for the Variable Effort Steering has fritzed out on my 06. It's an integral part of the steering rack so the entire assembly has to be replaced. Bad part is the steering rack is discontinured and even remanufactured racks are limited. Wondering if the steering rack from a 05-06 C-6...

    Red XLR in Brazosport Texas

    If you are the owner of a Passion Red XLR living in the Brazosport area, I'm the one in the Infrared XLR. We keep meeting each other on a couple of roads in and around Lake Jackson. Met you on 332 near Brazoria this afternoon.

    XLRs Seen

    We usually don't see another XLR in our area. Last month we saw a Passion Red XLR in the opposite lane in Lake Jackson, Texas Today we saw a black XLR around SH288 and the Macgregor exit in Houston. If you are one of these drivers sound off!

    Android Auto Update

    I've been using Android Auto with my Kenwood receiver almost since the first day of installation almost 2 years ago. I'd give it a score of 90% satisfaction with it. The other day I plugged my Galaxy S8+ before leaving the house like I always do, and from out of nowhere there's an option of...

    Top Went Wonky

    Two days ago went out driving with the top down. Top worked as usual. Yesterday started out driveway, decided to put the top down and it stalled midway during the process. Trunk opened as usual, but that was it. Got out the Tech II that I haven't used in over a year, re-learned the module, and...

    Use for stock CD slot

    Most of you know I replaced the stock head unit with a Kenwood Nav unit last year. Don't regret it one bit. Hell of a Nav/DVD/HD Radio/Bluetooth/SD/ unit. I've fumbled around with a couple of different things to hold my phone especially when I've got Android Auto running. Ran across this thing...

    I Sure Would

    Like to meet the designer that had a hand in the license plate/backup lights location and the way you have to replace them. License plate lights fairly easy once you take out the retainer pins and trunk lid switch. You can get a hand on the socket(s) and turn them ok. Backup lights you have to...

    Lloyd Mats

    In December of 2015, I ordered some custom mats from Lloyd's. Lots of comments on them and very plush/luxurious. Wife would kick her shoes off just to feel the carpet. Well, last November or so one of the locking grommets pulled out. About a month or so later, the other grommet pulled out. It...
