 Re: mark gillespy jaguar 2001 xkr # sajda42b61pa22456 dear sir; my 2001 xkr is leaking hydraulic fluid at the roof latch for the second time. it leaks hydraulic fluid on the driver and passenger when driving down the highway. the fluid escapes from an area by the garage door opener. it is leakig from a defective fitting on the convertable roof latch located at hte top of the front windsheild. it was originally fixed on 23 october 2006 at matheny imports in jacksonville, florida. it has now happened for a second time. my friend with a same car had the same thing happen 4 weeks ago with fluid spraying all over the front of the car. the internet is replete with dissatisfied owners with this problem in xk8/xkr
