Hello All,

I recently bought an 02 x-type with 98k on it. I was at an auction and my wife really wanted it, so its ours now.
Well i soon realized why it was at an auction. The tranny was in need of repair. The reverse wasnt working properly, a common issue i later found out. Well my wife didnt want to give up on it and so I bought a used tranny(04) and did some brake work and boot repair. It runs good but now the battery light and check engine light just came on. So to make a long story short, i am in for so more issues!
Well i would love some advice from some more experienced jag owners!
