    Batteries

    Just had my dealer install the 3rd replacement battery in my 06 XLR. The previous one lasted 28 months (a record). I have been using a c-tek battery manager when ever the car is not in normal use. Can anyone recommend a battery that will last? The Cadillac dealer keeps installing ACDelco .

    Front Plate Bracket

    Is there anything available to plug up the holes, that would be left in the front bumper, after I remove the license plate bracket? I realize that anything I use would have to be painted to match the car.

    Help! AM Reception Problem

    Has AM radio reception been a problem with the XLR? I am about 60 miles from the city so I understand that the signal will not be the best. But, my CTS and Audi convertible both do OK. The XLR is hardly audible. I bought the car used in August and it's still un warrantee.

    Help! 2006 XLR

    Has anyone noticed two small marks on the hard top roof, equally spaced, one on each side. Well, I took the car to a body shop and they showed me where brackets on the underside of the trunk lid are making contact with the top of the roof (when it's folded down) and causing the marks. The roof...
