#1103 of 1519 Re: burning through tires @ 8 K miles [xfire] by sue05 Nov 26, 2007 (7:49 pm)
Replying to: xfire (Nov 27, 2005 11:13 pm) I also have wear problems, but at 12,000 noticed cracks in the sidewalls of the ContTacIII's.. Dealer had nothing on this. i also checked the tire date, they sent me to STS which is contintal dealer... the break was 560.00 for all 4 tires at that time. As I store my car for the winter I was willing to wait for spring. I now have 20,000 miles on them and it goes away this week. but my other problem is the fan blower, it is very irradic and uncontrolable. On low it will blow high adjusting the speed does not help and there is a funky smell and squealing behind the dash.. Do you have this problem. Dealer told me it was due to road debris in clogging the fan, but sounds like BS to me. never had this problem with any other car.. They want 200.00 to check this.. Its not covered??? anybody else having this issue and how was it resolved.   Thanks Sue
#1104 of 1519 Electrical problems by sue05 Nov 26, 2007 (7:57 pm)
I have a xfire 05 roadster, love my baby,however, baby is in the shop right now. Fan blower is crazy.. Blows full blast on low, can't adjust it when this happens you have to turn it off. Last week it started to smell funky, and squealing at times and again the fan would blast intermittently even on low. So I took it to the dealer.   Here is the line I got... Lady, you have road debris caught in your blower, under the dashboard between the motor and the fan this is what is causing the intermittent surges as it is causing a blockage. To fix this, 200.00, for labor to take off the front grill and clean it... (Sounds like BS). I called back to confirm and again was told due to road debris. Makes no sense to me, I vacuum it when I wash, but how is the debris getting up there,under the car?   Anyone else ever heard of this and how was it resolved.   Sue Replies to this message: xfireroadster (Nov 29, 2007 3:54 pm) soldonxfire (Dec 06, 2007 7:14 am)

Replying to: sue05 (Nov 26, 2007 7:57 pm) Sue05.........This is true to a certain extent, debris can enter the cooling vents they get in through the plastic vent cover located under the hood near the firewall. Also its more than likely time to change the cabin filter that is where the "funky" smell is coming from. There have however been reports of AC blower fan issues.   Here are 2 posts from a different forum:   1) I also had leaves trapped which made a rattling noise everytime I turned the fan on. I ended up pulling the fan motor out...not that big of a job. If you open the hood, the plastic cover over the vent intake at the ends are fluted. That's how leaves and especially pined needles in my case were able to work themselves into the fan compartment.   2) The Cabin filter is after the blower motor on the Xfire. It is easy to remove the Blower. Remove the access panel under the Glove box. 2 screws. Then you will see a square panel on the right with a couple of white or yellow latches. Unplug the wire connector next to this panel and slide these latches and the panel will come loose. The fan is directly above this panel and there are 3 or 4 screws that hold the fan in place. Remove the fan and use a shop vac or similar to vacuum out the debris. I would also change the cabin filter which is to the left under a rectangular panel with 2 white or yellow slide latches.

#1106 of 1519 Fan Speed by akestner Dec 03, 2007 (6:28 pm)
My Crossfire was in the shop for five days for a problem like the one you are Having. Another symptom is the fan will not shut off and some times slow down.   They replace a resistor in the blower motor circuit. That seamed to fix the problem.   AL Replies to this message: decessus (Feb 18, 2009 5:34 pm)
#1107 of 1519 Re: intermittant fan [xfireroadster] by soldonxfire Dec 06, 2007 (7:14 am)
Replying to: xfireroadster (Nov 29, 2007 3:54 pm) Hi I'm a newby here, but browsed to see if anyone was suffering problems with their heater fans. My problem seems similar to these here but is actually that the fan it self sometimes refuses to come on - mainly when you need it of course - but if you leave the switch on at some stage during the journey it will kick in. I thought disfuntional switch or short in the electrics but would be interested if anyone has any idea's. With Christmas coming I could do without expensive shop investigative charges!!!

#1109 of 1519 Re: new xFire owner here . . . . [slnrd] by cmckenzie Dec 07, 2007 (1:54 pm)
Replying to: slnrd (Nov 11, 2007 5:23 pm) I just got a second key from my local dealer a few weeks ago for $50.   Did you ever get an answer to the 2 posts on the bulkhead? I am curious about those too. Also, what about that 5" wide strap that snaps down to the back of the passenger seat headrest? Anyone know what that is about?   Lastly, I see there is an optional adjustable cargo framework that fits down in the 'trunk'. Dealer says it's about $100 but the photo isn't real clear. Does anyone have experience with these? Are they good quality?
