I'm new "sorta"
I've been enjoying the site for a couple of months now. I became a Crossfire owner 12/16/2009. The site was repaired just in time for my birthday and I joined 3/6/10. The fact that I was unable to post questions forced me to read and research for the information I needed. So far, I have replaced my CPS and pulled the circuit board to re-solder the two bad spots as the "mystery no start article" described. I also programed a new key purchased from the Chrysler dealer.
A BIG THANKS to all who have posted such information. The Crossfire I purchased was from an individual here in GA. It is a 2004 Silver Blue Pearl Metalic Coupe with 23000 miles. The car reminds me of a 1967 XKE Coupe I owned back in 1973. Thanks again for a great website!

Re: I'm new "sorta"
Dave, You had a 67 XKE coupe? I hate you.
That's my all time favorite car, and one I've never been fortunate enough to own.
Any photos?
Glad to hear you made it in time for your Birthday. This is definitely the place to be if you drive a Crossfire.
Just can't get over that XKE..............

Re: I'm new "sorta"
Yes, I do have some pictures and i'll have to find them. I think it will be very interesting to see a side by side comparison of the XKE and the XFire. I am loving my Xfire! I purchased the Jag at a steal just as I did my XFire. The Jag was a silver blue very close to the saphire silver blue of my XFire. I hope to attend the Tail of the Dragon Event but not sure of my work schedule yet. This website should be apart of every owners manual!

Re: I'm new "sorta"
Wow, 12cyl is a lot engine. Mine was 6cly with 3 side draft carbs which all had to be balanced on a almost weekly basis. High maintenance cars those jags.. but you gotta love'um. I hope the Crossfire proves to be much less of a "High Maintenance Car" than the old British sports cars. I guess if we want to tinker with them, we can just get out the polish and make'em shine! Oh, we do get to change the oil don't we.
