Default A Few questions concerning my 2004 XK8
  • Does anyone notice moisture in their head lamps enclosure?
  • Driver door does not open easily. Door oscillates before opening.
  • I notice a small amount of oil leaking from the car.
  • Car only has 17,890 miles.
I would appreciate any input from forum members on the above concerns.
Thanks

I can address the headlight moisture issue; it's fairly common. Take a look at this thread as it addresses several different possible causes and repairs:

Despite the vagueness of where from and what oil, these cars do not normally leak ..........
