    Her08

    I had a similar problem earlier in the summer. (although it might no be the same as yours) The trunk lid would not open, even though the lifter cylinders would engage. The problem was the trunk latch. The latch was also the source of "Top Not Secure" messages on the DIT that plagued me for a...

    Top Not Secure

    I'm getting the message only when the top is closed and not when the lid is down and stored in the trunk. I had the same issue with my dealer not being able to replicate the behavior in their service dept. I was glad when they picked the car up at my home to take back. Then they saw the...

    Top Not Secure

    My 2006 XLR is constantly indicating "Top Not Secure" message on the dash whenever I encounter a rough patch of highway. I took it to a Cadillac dealer early March of this year. Dealer had it for 5 days, told me it was fixed. I was about 5 miles from dealer on the drive home, hit a hole and...

    My nav disk update experience I'm new here, but I thought I'd share my experience with getting a disk update. I read this thread and called the NAV number yesterday, and *told* the operator that I qualified for disk update for m 2006 XLR. He asked for my name, model and VIN and whether I was...
