    Front Shocks replaced, still creeking

    Front shocks were making all kinds of noise over speed bumps. Replaced the front shocks and it’s a lot better but it feels like it’s still creeking over speed bumps. What else could it be? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    New shocks, now ride control

    My shocks were making noise in the front so I had the Cadillac dealership put new ones on. My wife picked up the car and now my display says service ride control. Would they have had to reset the computer after swapping them out? Our service advisor said the tech remembered plugging in the...

    Compacitor in tail light

    Hey all, Last year I had my tail light rebuilt but it wasn’t the LED’s, it was the compacitor inside. Vettronix was able to source one but I think it may have been an old part. Back to the dim lights on top. Anyone know if this part can be ordered new? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Convertible Top drain

    Just incase anyone hasn’t checked this, I’ve read that this little drain hole gets clogged with leaves and I had some in mine. Hard to reach so I used a leaf blower to clean it out. Worked well! Has anyone thought to make the hole bigger just in case? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    AC water drip on exhaust

    So, I’m assuming this is water condensation from the ac that drops on my exhaust. Haven’t lost any fluids and it’s been that way since I bought it a year ago. Anyone else have the same problems? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Press Release: Emblem Replacement

    My car looks great for an 06 but the plastic emblems are getting weathered. So I ordered a new one for about 80 bucks. Just had to take a few clips out to remove the top shroud and use a heat gun to loosen them up from behind. The Front end it looking brand new again! .jpg[/IMG] Sent from my...

    Most sought after parts

    I though maybe I'd start collecting parts that I may need in the future. What are the parts centric to XLR's that are hard to come by? Head light Tail light Body panels Seat adjustment Hydraulic pumps ??? .... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Automatic Car Wash

    I'd like to get my XLR-V washed on the conveyer style car wash near work but I'm worried about the clearance. They said corvettes make it through. I assume the ride height is the same but have you all done this? Does the XLR-V sit lower than the XLR 2005+ corvettes? Sent from my iPhone...

    High Mileage XLR-V's

    Anyone seen a V with high mileage? I usually buy a different vehicle every year but I feel like driving this think until it's not possible. Just curious if the boosted motors will take an extended beating. Has anyone had an engine or transmission rebuilt? Are all the parts to do that still...

    XLR-V engine oil and super charger oil

    Anyone know if V's take a heavier oil? I couldn't find anything about them on a search. Seems 5w30 is recommended for the 4.6 but my buddies supercharged cobra takes 20w50 from the factory so it has me apprehensive. What type of oil goes in the supercharged reservoir? Is changing that pretty...

    Vettronics rebuilt my tail light!

    So just bought a 2006 XLR-V from a Cadillac Dealer in Lake Wales FL. They ignored my calls after I got it home and realized just the upper most led was burning. Luckily, I found this forum and Vettronics phone number. I was a little worried as I only saw a post about it but none to say the job...
