Default New from the Dallas Area

Hi Everyone,
We live North of Dallas (Corinth). My husband is a mechanical engineer and I am a healthcare analyst.
We have a 2004 Jaguar S-Type 3.0 with 156,000 miles.
Needless to say, we've had to start working on it lately.
We've replaced the CCM, heater control valve, 3 window regulators, the brakes and rotors, and the radiator (that one was very difficult)

After getting quotes from the shops for any repairs, we decided to do it ourselves. $2700 quote for AC repair. We fixed it for around $100 (heater control valve and CCM repair)
$2000 on radiator- spent $300 on part but it took us a LONG time to do that one.

Talk to you soon!

Melissa ( Eric- husband)
