    What did you do to / with your XLR today?

    i call it good luck - it didn’t lose the fob programming + I knew it was coming - a 4 year old bar in AZ just doesn’t workout

    What did you do to / with your XLR today?

    And, it finally happened - battery dead, had to go through the trunk to get in. . . Worst timing too, I just got a real nasty tooth infection to fight straight dead - out of nowhere. . . Pull the battery, straight heaving battery acid from the side closer to the fender(right where I wouldn’t...

    What did you do to / with your XLR today?

    Me and my mechanic always kick work around - I always give him my nasty greasy hard to get or diagnose calls. . . Lol He swapped my high pressure PS line for a 100 bucks. . . . I think I got the hose off RockAuto or eBay for like 40-50 bucks So much better now, it heaved PS fluid from the...

    For Sale Anyone want my xLR?!

    I might as well, post it on here - I have it listed for sale locally and the only thing I have been getting is offers for junk. . . . I'm not too antsy to sell it, but if I wind up keeping much longer it's gonna get a large shot of N02 - the wife doesn't think it's that grreat of an idea(kinda...

    What did you do to / with your XLR today?

    I'll post it on here, but won't tell my son - Can't promote myself doing this stuff Took it out for drive around the block with the wife, and got into with a 2020 Charger Rt. . . We got to about 90 from a slight roll and he barely started to pull away at about 60-65. . . . She's got some left...

    What did you do to / with your XLR today?

    Only real dif is if you let a motor sit a long time, it goes dry But, personally I have never had issues with it. . . My xF has 8k miles, it sat for almost 5 years straight - started up & drove it home on the original oil when it had about 5-6k. . . . Changed the oil, still runs perfect...

    Battery Issue

    I been slacking here lately - again, on putting on the Tender But, I’m back to driving it daily - not far, at all. . . It sees maybe 50 miles a week Also - when it does die, I really hope it doesn’t lose the key fob programming. . . My 08 CTS did that, real nice added touch

    Battery Issue

    I was just gonna say Mine stays on the tender most of the time - well, not during this Corona season - since, I actually drive the car But, any time Cadillacs or other high end cars sit - they tend to eat batteries. . . And, an Optima is still a great bat. . . .Man, the days when I could buy...

    Is the XLR just another Allante?

    + it’s just a hideous car that pretty much covers every every 90’s Cadillac tho. I wouldn’t own one if I got it for free - the NorthStar FWD platform is one of the worst designed drivetrains ever built. I remember having to work on these - I think it’s easier pulling teeth But, Cadillac does...

    Oh, I wish - I need to do swap my coil packs & do the valve covers, sine they are leaking into the spark plug gallies With my amazing vision I srsly thought these were amber colored - oh well, part of its charm

    Is the XLR just another Allante?

    Someone asked me this? I felt like it was more negative than “you have a NorthStar” And, I was looking at a Allante this morning on CL. The way I see the xLR, it’s more of the best they can do about what they did wrong on the last Coupe Any fwd Cadillac is straight garbage - worst stuff they...

    My lenses are smoke clear coated - they are one of the things that look perfect on the car(almost) Ah, that explains the replacement looking stuff on the back of the headlights

    Get familiar with the XLR electrical system

    Just wow! Thank you for posting this - Amazing that Saturn(of course it is GM) was using the same type of system The complexity of this, specially at its time is just amazing
