I have a 2007 XK convertible that literally slams shut. The fluid level is full. I did notice a bit of a whining noise when the tonneau is engaged. Otherwise, I have not identified anything unusual. I am concerned that if I continue to use the top I may damage the latches.

Mike,
See Post #5 by WhiteXKR (Steve, the Jag Wrangler) in this thread. He's the convertible top guru and inventor of the remote control top kit, the feature that the factory forgot.

Hopefully, that'll work for you. Good luck!.
