Hi I have an xkr 2001 which I've owned since 2004 bought the car in florida with 25K miles had it shipped to Sunnyvale, CA. The car now has 50K miles. I do all the services myself. I have serviced the following on this car.

1/ Added iPod interface via CD changer. ($25)
2/ Coolant change ($40)
3/ Transmission Oil changes. ($60 fluid, $40 parts + $22 dip stick)
4/ O2 sensors changed (one went bank A) (Bosch 4 sensor heated $260)
5/ Sparkplugs ($45 Iridium NGK)
6/ Secondary Tensioners ($210 metal tensioners + cam cover gaskets)
7/ Both belts ($130)
