instead of building up your XLR, I would buy a V.

Hi YuNgXLR,YuNg XLR said:i bought myself an 05 xlr and i wanted to know if i should trade it in for the v series or just fix it up. i was leaning towards trading it in because i think it will cost more if i fix it up to make it exactly or better then the v series. what do you think?

and some DIC comes on and tells me the Engine is Hot...Turn Off A/C ...........What's up with that??
This is a 75K luxury auto in perfect working condition, we're not talking a 64 VW here!
It's 101 degrees out the F'n A/C stays on....Sorry DIC!!
No Harry, my DIC has always been very reliable,harrysxlr said:Hi 1 XLR,
in 64 no VW had an aircondition :lol but you are right, this shouldn`t happen in our XLR`s. But don`t take this messages too serios, I`ve had on mine with topdown "top is not secure" another time the "check engine light" came on but these all happens only 1 time and they never came back on.
101 degrees, pretty hot we`ve got right now about 70°, send 15° to germany than we both got good weather.
Have a nice weekend

so I listen to my DIC when it tells me what to do.
Engine temp was 260 range, so the message was right.
The car just can't take the heat, and it should!!
trhat pinging wasn't from lack of octane, it was the radiator boiling!aviator said:Imagine that 130 degF heat in Dubai....
Have a great weekend! :cheers
We have an electric fan already....it's just not doing the job.standby said:If there taking out the ACC in 06 and giving us more ventilation into the engine compartment, why don't they install a fan to blow through there. That would solve the problem while sitting in traffic...............engineer's my butt.

I think there's alot that can be done to open up the front end without removing the ACC. (And I don't mean like you did)
There's alot of unnecessary plastic IMO
