too much road surface feedback via steering wheel
Can anyone suggest what needs to be replaced to fix the issue. My other/old cars, TT (2003) and A3 (2007) provide a more comfortable steering experience, the steering seems better damped. On the XK I can feel every little bump through the steering. It feels more like my 32 year old 450SL.

There is a post just above called "XKR 2005 handling not necessarily jiggely," that deals with this problem as well. I have previously posted my disappointment on my first drive home when I bought my XKR, and how I proceeded to replace all of the bushings with aftermarket poly bushings that helped somewhat. The lack of damping in the suspension has been an ongoing disappointment that I have compared to my 40 year old Pantera or my 34 year old 280Z, except both of those are actually more compliant. I still enjoy the driving experience, but I would love to find a way to make my XKR's suspension and ride feel more like a modern luxury GT's.
