Hello Christopher. Thanks for that. The dealer is dealing with the issue thankfully and they think its a faulty instrument cluster which is being repaired at present. I will keep you posted. Thanks. Best, Rob

Hi all, Just bought an X type, great condition, low mileage, really well maintained. Might have questions about how to fix stuff (eg. Petrol cap doesn't lock) Just wanted to say hi!

out of date map has nothing to do with tcu? and compromising head unit relates to head unit software update... find specialist who updates jag systems for a living. quite often they are mobile.

Forgot to say i believe it's an external leak, but curios why oil is above the gasket line.

Can the JLR SDD 165 Mongoose access the immobilizer fault codes on my 2005 S Type

I’ve just got a 1998 XK8, on the way home all the instruments stoped working, SPEED, RPM, FUEL, OIL, WATER, AMPS. Non of the back lights on any instruments work. The car starts and drives. So I think there must be a connector that is either come adrift or corroded. Can any one point me in the right direction to where this might be located or any other suggestions? Thanks

Dave thanks for that. I will check behind the trim in the boot for any signs of water ingress shortly.

funktioniert nicht. hat jemand einen Tip

hi, sorry to read about the problems, but if yuo had to change discs and pads within 6 minths span, considering you work from home...you are being robbed in day light, sorry to say. way you needed all 4 new wheels? tyres i can understand...all those fixes do not fill me with confidence. look for independent jaguar garage and give them car for a full check and then decide what to do. it wil cost you something, but without jag specialists looking at it, it's a guessing game (as it is so far, by the looks of it).

I’ve driven all over the south of England with it working perfectly. The original radio had a very average sound but now it’s from the phone ( digital I suppose) the sound is 100% clearer. Very surprised tbh.

Hi everyone! Can anyone advise where to start looking for the problem.. The traction control light is flashing.. The fault codes have been read, but no reason was found for that.. IMG_9723.mov

Cheers Anthony, I have actually met your acquaintance and sent a few folks his way at CAP! N6 JMX

Welcome aboard Matt!

This might help. I just put my XK8 on ebay and put limits on it. Here's my example: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/167837175528

Hi Anthony, you have keyless entry and pulling the door handle whilst still having the keys on your person will unlock the door you are pulling on. Try double locking the vehicle - press the lock button twice and have the vehicle chirp to you. Walk away and put the keys at least 2 metres from the car and then walk back to try the door pull again. N6 JMX

I own a 2009 Jaguar XF X250 2.7 V6 (AI-D) and I’m experiencing a strange issue that appears occasionally in the form of vibrations. I’ve noticed that between 40–50 km/h and at low RPMs (especially when going uphill), just before the car needs to downshift, there are quite strong vibrations coming from the rear of the vehicle. The same thing also happens between 70–80 km/h. There are no problems in shifting nor sound from the gearbox, only vibrations from the rear somewhere. I’ve had it checked at Jaguar, but they couldn’t determine the cause of the problem. A workshop has already replaced the center driveshaft without success. Has anyone experienced something similar or have an idea what this could be? Thanks in advance

I would look into having them remanufactured by a hydraulic fitters company. If you sent the eBay lot to them they could work them over. Since you now have a spare set you should look into it.

Did you renew the fuel filter as well?

Haha I think I lost mine too! I think anything over £20,000 I would be open to discuss
