Hi Brian, sounds quite serious, but I suspect they may well be electrical related - the battery on a Modern XK is a central part of its nervous system. You say your battery "died", is the replacement new and fully charged? The faults you experienced with ABS, DSC, etc, are all symptomatic of a poor battery, unable to provide a stable voltage to the sensitive electronics. It may be the case with brakes that the electronic parking brake (EPB) has been stuck on due to a poor signal associated with the battery condition, you are likely going to need access to a full Jaguar or Autologic diagnostic equipment to fully check and reset the brain of the car. Good luck and please report back any progress. N6 JMX

Hello Folks! Ive just become the proud owner of a Suffolk SS100. Hope to chat soon!

Disdain

This is a known but not common issue. The hood can be resealed, after suitable cleaning of the old adhesive with Welcon surface cleaner, by using a glue called Teromix 6700. N6 JMX

At last my xj350 is now out of Valet mode and security shutdown and is up and running beautifully again. I no longer need a laptop with sdd V130.

Welcome to the forum 👍

hi front lights and front indicators not working no lights on the dash and no warning on dash no main beam no interior lights the boot release button also not working can anyone help me what to look at thank you

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll get on it! I've seen a lot of info about SDD, sounds like i'll be investing. Genuinely though, if it takes getting someone over then I'll do it. The car is too pretty for it to be left not running!

hey, i've seen somehwere someone had same issue, but xf if memory serves right. he removed front seat completely to make more space, undid door card screws, popped it all around hen just wiggled door card out. not sure if it's possible on x type, but food for thought. let us know how you get on

obviously LoL

This happened to my F type a few years ago on the ferry to France. Just use basic lock( One press )

As this post is now three years old, I assume these are long gone?

If memory serves, the locking nuts have a removable sleeve to allow the "key" to fit in the end of the nut. As such, the locking nut doesn't have the same tight fitting sleeve, just a relatively loose one. Funny (ish) story, i removed all 4 locking nuts on mine prior to replacing the tyres. In between removing each wheel and fitting a new tyre then refitting and then going to replace the locking nuts, i managed to lose the "key". That decided me, they'd be replaced with normal nuts. By strange coincidence, after fitting replacement wheels to my Honda, i lost the locking nut "key" and had to buy a locking wheel nut remover kit. Done one so far but the rest won't be long, been hoping the key would turn up............

Hello, I have exactly the same fault on mine, did either of you manage to solve this? Thanks, Pete.

If you have two things not working at the rear, then it’s very likely the electrical cables where they enter the tailgate at the top right. These go through a lot of movement with opening and closing of the tailgate - and it’s not abnormal for them to break at this point.

Hi Gavin I don't know if you have fixed this in the last month but it was part of the IOS upgrade that caused similar problems across many brands and cars. Apple have since run another upgrade that solved the issue.

Hi all Can anyone help. I have just retrofitted a pair of jaguar xf hid headlights the items were fully working before fitting .but now fitted i cannot get the sidelights to work main and dip all good but no sidelights. My old units had the w5 bulbs but the new ones have h8 bulbs have replaced the bulbs are the were a little burnt. But nothing from the new ones Any ideas ???

What a load of rubbish, it's a stop start button, you don't put the key in the ignition, it's a fob.

I bought a 2021 Jaguar XF Mild Hybrid in 2023. within 6 months of purchase the engine warning light came on whilst driving to Austria. The local main agent said that he had cured the fault but it came back on on the return journey. The car went in to the local main agent for a service and on driving away the light came on again. The diagnoses this time was a loose wire, which they said they corrected. Since then the light keeps appearing and I eliminate the "fault" with my diagnostic tool. Having got fed up with his I got another main dealer to look at the car. They said the fault was in the filter in the EGR and replaced it. Needless to say the warning light has come on again. When using my diagnostic tool there is no fault code shown. Does anyone have any idea where the fault is and how to remedy it.

I have this problem on my passenger seat - I brought a whole seat but that didnt work either - it came with a 16 way module and my car had 10 way, Ive brought a second had 10 way module which made no difference, my seat is fully reclined - the front edge of the seat goes up and down fine, also when I operate the switch I can hear the module click - I have SDD but when I try Recal or add a new module it always fails, any ideas also does the newere XF module have to 10 way to work in my 06 X150?

Hi John, Thanks again for all of your advice. The Jag has been to the garage and they have done a full diagnostic on it. They found a short circuit in O2 sensor control module bank 2 sensor 1. The previous owner had replaced this sensor, but with a cheap aftermarket part. I have had an OEM Denso sensor fitted to replace the faulty sensor and all is well. Drives like a dream and you wouldn't tell the car is 18 years old as its immaculate inside and out. Tax and fuel costs are a little steep, but the smiles it gives me are well worth it 😁 Cheers, Steve
