What has been your most expensive repair?

Most expensive, oil pan gasket. Just over $700.
Most annoying problem? My ABS light has been on since I bought the car. I won't come on when the weather is cold or wet. It comes on usually after 3-5 minutes of driving. I even pulled a code, C1288. Apparently it's the pressure sensor. But thats under the hood on the ABS module. I cant see how it's effected by cold or especially rain.
Best improvement was fitting the ACM to play my iPod through the radio. $400.

Had the water pump replaced at about 100K and the rear lower control arms a little later. I think those were both like $300-$400. Other than that the car has been great. Have had it about 4 1/2 years and it now has about 125K. Overall it has been one of the most reliable and satisfying cars I have ever owned.

$500+ for the dealer to remove the dash and clear out blockage in the A/C condensation drain. Lots of leaves/junk had made their way in and A/C condensate was draining onto the passenger floor.
That's the one I had to pay for. Replacing the T-Case, which was done under warranty, would have been fearsome...

I got my 2011 XK about 14 month ago with about 5k on the odo. Now It has about 15k run.
Meanwhile I had an annual service done and the water pump replaced.
Car sometimes smells slightly of coolant in the engine bay when hot. After 6 months I got the AFS swivel light warning with left light pointing down. It comes back every 4 months or so.
This week I got the feared pedestrian warning twice, for the first time ever.
With the second set of wheels I bought for winter, the TPMS warning is triggered. Has not come back since I refitted the original summer wheels. Will put new sensors into the winter wheels.
I am sometimes trickle charging with ctek. Have connected it to battery ports.
