I have a 1996 XJ that will hit 100K before the end of the year. It has the 4.0 and am concerned about getting it to last forever. I really love it and just have a few questions.
1. Should I be worried that the ammount of water coming from the exhaust has increased in the past 6 months? What started as an infrequent thing has grown to a constant puddle whenever I park with the engine running.
2. I heard a nasty rumor about the transmissions going after 100K, any truth in this? Anything I can do to prevent it?
3. I was told the steering damper is shot by the guy who redid my front brakes in June. Should I be concerned?
4. Is there anything else I should know or do at 100K? My catalytic converter has a piece broken off in it somewhere and it rattles when I start and stop the engine, should I consider having it replaced?
Thanks so much. I bought this Jeep in July 2000 at 60K and it has been the best vehicle I have ever driven, so I'm always a bit worried whenever the issue of milage comes up.
