    Key Pad

    I am ordering a new key pad for my passenger door and was told labor could be $300 plus if the door panel has to come off. I think a new pad can be put on without taking the panel off. Am I correct? John F.

    Original XLR Radio

    I took my car out for the second time this week for a little run after sitting all winter . The radio would come on for about 3 seconds and shut off. A couple of seconds later it would be back on and then off. I then turned the radio off and back on , changed the stations and no change. When I...

    Hats & Shirts etc.

    The posts I have seen are very old. Is there anyone today that can get shirts and ball hats monogrammed with the XLR logo or silhouette ? I have another toy and I have had no problem getting stuff for it but I can't find anything on the XLR. Thanks. John F.

    XLR-V

    Well today was a great day I think. I got home last week from being down south for the winter and purchased an 07 XLR-V. What a great car. I still have my base model and I will decide next fall whether to keep it or sell it. John F.

    Car Covers

    I thought I would give everyone a heads up on car covers. I have purchased a couple of all weather car covers from Costco. I think they are Car Cover. I use them when we get a lot of blowing sand or the occasional rain as I don't want to take a chance on any water getting into the trunk. Well we...

    Millage

    I would like to get an idea on how important keeping low millage on your car is to you. I have 88,000 miles and I feel that this car has high millage and I should not be spending much money on it. However I have been spending. I purchased a Corsa exhaust system, chromed the wheels and grill and...

    Chrome Grill

    Today has been a pretty good day. I finally found a grill in chrome for my XLR. It is the same grill that's in the 07 passion red and 08 white one. Hopefully I will have the bottom painted and installed tomorrow. I have been looking for one of these grills for the last couple of years so I am...

    Sun Visor

    I broke the cover on the mirror on one of my sun visors. I can not keep the light off so can someone tell me where to find the fuse and is there one that just does the visor lights. I couldn't find anything in my manual. John F.

    Battery ??

    I arrived back in Southern CA. and went and picked up my Toy. I hooked up the batteries and she stared right up. Then I indexed the windows and everything was great. I drove the car to my place and put it on a battery tender for the day and last night. I do this every year as the car has sat for...

    Tire Monitor

    Every once in a while my rear tire shows low. Tonight the tire pressure showed zero. Then it said max speed is 55 mph. I stepped on it . I am sure I exceeded 55. Then the tire warning went out and everything went back to normal. My question is when it says max 55 mph will the car only go 55 or...

    Window Indexing

    I have been reading a number of posts on indexing your windows. When you store your car for winter and put a cover on it as well as disconnect your battery does the group feel your windows should be fully up , down or down a little bit. I am beginning to think the windows should be down before...

    Clean Up

    I arrived back in Southern California today and for the first time I stored my out outside under a canopy. I did that because I also had a trailer to store. Well never again. My XLR is a nightmare. Absolutely filthy, covered in dust etc. I even have sand under the hood. I should have known...

    Parts Supplies in General

    I heard on the news this AM that Ford no longer has parts for 06 and later F150's. As a matter of fact they said when the warranty expires they will no longer supply parts on some models. I didn't hear the whole story as I was at a Mickey D's for my morning coffee. So it leads me to think that...

    Weather Stripping

    Much of my weather stripping is looking poor and dried out from the California heat. What can I put on it to bring some life back to it. Thanks. John F.

    Corsa vs Borla

    Can I get an opinion on Corsa exhaust system vs. Borla. I know the Corsa is way more expensive and is probably better but I only use this car 5 months of the year so I want to keep the costs down. Does the Borla sound pretty good ? John F.

    Key Fob

    If you get in your XLR one day and the battery in the key fob is dead how would you start the car. I know if it's low you put it in the key fob slot in the glove box but what if the battery is toast in the fob. John F.

    2005 XLR VS. 2006 XLR

    I have a 2006 XLR and am looking at an 05 XLR. Was the 06 a much better vehicle by getting a lot of the bugs out etc. or is the 05 a pretty comparable vehicle when it come to mechanical issues. John F.
