Boy, that took wisdom. If you are going to own a Jag, at least read the manual and learn about it. You're going to be doing a lot of maintenance if you keep it.

You may have bought it new but it is now 10 years old. Spit happens! I had six jags in my 80 plus years. Believe me, they will break and it gets a little more expensive each time it does. I'm glad you have had no problems till now. Maybe luck or maybe they built a couple of good ones in 08'
