I am ordering a new key pad for my passenger door and was told labor could be $300 plus if the door panel has to come off. I think a new pad can be put on without taking the panel off. Am I correct? John F.

Does anyone know if the water leaking in the trunk was fixed in 07. I have had water in my 06 and I just want to know about the 07. John F.

I took my car out for the second time this week for a little run after sitting all winter . The radio would come on for about 3 seconds and shut off. A couple of seconds later it would be back on and then off. I then turned the radio off and back on , changed the stations and no change. When I...

The posts I have seen are very old. Is there anyone today that can get shirts and ball hats monogrammed with the XLR logo or silhouette ? I have another toy and I have had no problem getting stuff for it but I can't find anything on the XLR. Thanks. John F.

Well today was a great day I think. I got home last week from being down south for the winter and purchased an 07 XLR-V. What a great car. I still have my base model and I will decide next fall whether to keep it or sell it. John F.

I thought I would give everyone a heads up on car covers. I have purchased a couple of all weather car covers from Costco. I think they are Car Cover. I use them when we get a lot of blowing sand or the occasional rain as I don't want to take a chance on any water getting into the trunk. Well we...

I would like to get an idea on how important keeping low millage on your car is to you. I have 88,000 miles and I feel that this car has high millage and I should not be spending much money on it. However I have been spending. I purchased a Corsa exhaust system, chromed the wheels and grill and...

Today has been a pretty good day. I finally found a grill in chrome for my XLR. It is the same grill that's in the 07 passion red and 08 white one. Hopefully I will have the bottom painted and installed tomorrow. I have been looking for one of these grills for the last couple of years so I am...

I broke the cover on the mirror on one of my sun visors. I can not keep the light off so can someone tell me where to find the fuse and is there one that just does the visor lights. I couldn't find anything in my manual. John F.

I arrived back in Southern CA. and went and picked up my Toy. I hooked up the batteries and she stared right up. Then I indexed the windows and everything was great. I drove the car to my place and put it on a battery tender for the day and last night. I do this every year as the car has sat for...

Every once in a while my rear tire shows low. Tonight the tire pressure showed zero. Then it said max speed is 55 mph. I stepped on it . I am sure I exceeded 55. Then the tire warning went out and everything went back to normal. My question is when it says max 55 mph will the car only go 55 or...

I have been reading a number of posts on indexing your windows. When you store your car for winter and put a cover on it as well as disconnect your battery does the group feel your windows should be fully up , down or down a little bit. I am beginning to think the windows should be down before...

I arrived back in Southern California today and for the first time I stored my out outside under a canopy. I did that because I also had a trailer to store. Well never again. My XLR is a nightmare. Absolutely filthy, covered in dust etc. I even have sand under the hood. I should have known...

I heard on the news this AM that Ford no longer has parts for 06 and later F150's. As a matter of fact they said when the warranty expires they will no longer supply parts on some models. I didn't hear the whole story as I was at a Mickey D's for my morning coffee. So it leads me to think that...

Much of my weather stripping is looking poor and dried out from the California heat. What can I put on it to bring some life back to it. Thanks. John F.

Can I get an opinion on Corsa exhaust system vs. Borla. I know the Corsa is way more expensive and is probably better but I only use this car 5 months of the year so I want to keep the costs down. Does the Borla sound pretty good ? John F.

If you get in your XLR one day and the battery in the key fob is dead how would you start the car. I know if it's low you put it in the key fob slot in the glove box but what if the battery is toast in the fob. John F.

I have a 2006 XLR and am looking at an 05 XLR. Was the 06 a much better vehicle by getting a lot of the bugs out etc. or is the 05 a pretty comparable vehicle when it come to mechanical issues. John F.
