Post by: AS90 on May 16, 2007, 19:50:18: Ok, picked it up today and there are a few faults, the airbag light is on, it thinks the tailgate is open, the rear wiper doesn't work, the steering wheel is not in the center and worst of there is a whining sound, I think it is coming from the front, could it be the gearbox? Any tips on correcting any of the above?

If its not a sepeate switch (like the rear screen) please ignore for Grands & this only aplies to XJ's :wink:
