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............

Hi As we are soon to embark on a ferry crossing to France in our 2006 XJ6 TDiV6. Overnight Portsmouth - St Marlo so a long one How do I disable the alarm? Is it double press on the key fob? Use the key in the door lock? Is there a button to press inside then press lock on key fob? Leave unlocked? Last thing I want and the ships crew want is a Jag with a flat battery!

Hi Chris yes its one of a few preproduction prototypes which were registered in 2001, sure there were only a few registered in 2001, not all are still shown on the road I have a 2004 S-type R and love it, great cars and underated, mines been extremely reliable if you want any links to workshop manual and info let me know cheers Joe

Hi Got myself a 2006 metallic green XJ6 TDiV6 so will be about a bit asking questions....probably lots of them

Noticed some of the sleeves are a bit loose on a few nuts so gonna replace them with solid ones. Do the locking nuts suffer the same fate? TIA

Error

Mistake

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.

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