I had a no start issue with my XJ earlier this summer. The battery was fully charged plus good fuel pressure and it cranked but wouldn't start. It turned out to be a bad CPS in my case. I replaced the sensor and it started right up.

If they wouldn't back their work, see if you can get them to cover at least a set of new gears and do the installation yourself.

Actually I only lost 1 and the other snapped off. :shock: Did I say I don't have time to deal with broken ...
