I just heard from Kevin (the technician working on my car) and he finally found the problem.
It turns out, the muffler was packed full of DOG FOOD!!
It seems that a mouse or mice took up residence in our garage and found the muffler of the Crossfire an excellent place to call home.
So if you store your car for winter, ya may want to "PLUG" those giant exhaust tips, because they must look like the Grand Entrance to an expensive "German" Spa and Resort. ...
Now this is a perfect example of why you should
NOT park the XF for the winter.
But seriously, I had a similar issue with my Sante Fe. Went to change the air filter and the intake hose was chewed through, there was a "nest" in the filter box. And I didn't store the Sante Fe, drove it every day. The field mice around my place gotta go somewhere when the farmers hit the fields.
