I managed to diagnose and fix the issue with the Jag......with 20 minutes of targeted googling and 15 minutes of labor.....
I'm just pissed that it just left their damn shop and I still had to work on it......seriously......WTF |

Morning Y'all.
Not trying to throw salt in an open wound Joe, but I think I remember trying to tell you to not buy a jag. You need to get yourself into a nice MB

G'day Rick How's ya been.
I haven't been able to look in during the day lately - Finally been moving into the new office/lab at work and the new office isn't quite as secluded as the old office. I'm also sharing the office with another bod.  It's hard work squeezing all my 5hit into a space 1/3 the size I had...I'm purging a lot.

Howdy Andy....
First day back to class today.... I have the same prof for both of my MWF classes.... She is out for the first few days this year due to a death in her family. So the dept chair came in and gave us a syallbus and said see you friday. Now I'm almost done with the 3 hr wait for him to do that again...  waste of a freaking day...

Sounds like the old hurry up and wait routine.

And again I will say, this is not a vehicle reliability issue......it is a service department issue, but carry on with your unfounded preconceptions of the reliability of Jags

Ok, I'll take my lashings on that one......
I'm just stubborn and have this funny idea stuck in my head that they should fix this since they've claimed to have fixed the problem multiple times..... My wallet is shut at this point and the dealership GM is aware of this. I dropped it off, told them to call when it was fixed and left in a loaner. ....didnt sign any work authorizations.....so, if need be, I'll just swing by and swap out real quick if they think they're going to charge me anymore |
