Default 2004 XK8 Conv. Problems I need help on.

I'm having the following Problems and I was wondering if someone could help me?
  • Convertible Top - Slow to close. Have to pull it up when it gets half way up then it will close.
  • Radio - Reception is only good when I'm close to a city or station location radio makes a clicking sound when reception is bad.
  • Head lights - Drains were installed but lenses have moisture inside of them.
  • Wheels - Have a dull appearance that looks like soap was left on them. I have used a wheels cleaner & wax that did nothing to improve the appearance.

1 - check the fluid level in the pump, should be between the lines
2 - while you are checking the pump the antennae is just in front of it, check to see if the lead going to the radio is unplugged
3 - check the seal on the clear door on top of the headlights
4 - buy new wheels

For the roof use a lubricant on the ram shafts.
