My XJ has only overheated once in the 9 years Ive owned her, and it was when the heater core blew on the 4th of July while stuck in traffic at the fireworks and it was 90 degrees. Other than that, NEVER over 210. I dont know how/why so many guys have trouble with overheating.

Sounds pretty common among the 5-speeds, but I have to put it in gear before reverse every time, and then wiggle it a little to get it in.
Drivers door doesn't lock/unlock with the buttons, and the rear driver side will occasionally unlock, but never lock.

when my driver side window gets to the top, the motor doesn't stop, the gear is stripped out and just grinds and clicks.
also, the steering wheel squeaks bad. i have gotten used to it but it drives my friends crazy when they ride with me. especially when I'm wheeling.
