I just recently purchased a 2014 V6S. It has 28k on it. Looking at the car fax it had service completed on it in DeC 2018 with new Fuel Injectors 24.5k. And oil changed. Looking at the Jag Service Main. Looks like at 6 yrs or 96k .. the SC belts should be replaced.. I guess my question would you go ahead and get them replaced with 6 years of life on em? I was going to get the oil changed also... would you also get the Diff oil changed while I’m at it?
thanks you help

Is there anything wrong with the supercharger belt? If not, keep driving. If they snap, you might be stranded but nothing is damaged. It isn't like a timing belt in this way. You lose belt, you have no boost and car possibly stall or limps home with no power.
I recommend focusing on fluids.
1. Change coolant if there are no records of it being done
2. Change brake fluid if there are no records of it being done
3. Change transmission fluid and filter if there are no records of it being done
At just 28K mechanical components are hardly broken in. I see no reason, even preemptively, to replace any belts, bushings, or so on. Unless the car was driven in anger a lot.
Your main concern with a low miles car like yours that fluids and lubricants that degrade with time. For example, brake fluids absorbs water from atmosphere regardless if you drive the car or not. So it is mostly time based.
