There may be one or two (or six) sharing the drive with the Rangie, but they're predominantly German!

This is how it should be:

Thus far, the 4.4 has been 2.5k in 2.5 years ... |

You have a leak - most likely a pinhole in one of the front airbags.
The car should behave as per the previous Jag. |
