    Rough Idle after starting cold

    2008 XLR-V I noticed that for the last year or so, when I start the car cold (ambient 75 deg), it starts immediately, revs up to 1800 or so and proceeds to miss and stumble and almost stall for about 30 seconds and then quiets right down to a nice smooth low idle. This only happens after being...

    2004 XLR for sale in Ontrario

    I was at the Service Ontario Ajax Location this morning and noticed a red XLR in the used car lot next door. It doesn't look too bad. I stopped in and asked the sales guy about it. It's 2004. 90,000 km. Asking $15,000 CAD which I thought was pretty cheap. Probably worth that for parts. Contact...

    Help! Fan Coming on By Itself?????

    This is the second time I've noticed it. Don't know if it happens more often or not. This particular time, I went out to the garage after the car had been parked in garage for an hour or two after a short drive. I was putting some tools away when I heard a double click-click and a fan in the...

    Rusty Rotors

    Hello everyone. I'm a new member of this forum. I just picked up my 08 XLR-V a couple of weeks ago. I absolutely LOVE the car. I tried to find one here in Canada but I had no luck. I finally had to import one from California. It's in showroom condition, inside, outside, under the car and under...
