Hi Vinny, there are currently 9 Mk2 variants listed for sale in another classic Jaguar Forum site, follow the link below: jec.org.uk/classifieds/index.php?page=cars-for-sale&category=1594 N6 JMX

You do know that you have posted these items for sale in a Jaguar General tab, which is a bit strange since there is a "Jaguar Marketplace" section further down the Forum. One more post in the General section and your post disappears from the headline view and I doubt anyone is going to look in a General tab for any items that might be for sale. Suggest you repost in the Marketplace section, where people would look. N6 JMX

ITEM IS NOW SOLD!

I put a new shifter box in The only way I can take the vehicle out of park is by hitting the silver button, I don’t know what it’s called but I have pictures for reference Refer to pic number 1 Then when I first took the console apart I realized that a sensor was unplugged which I believe could be the initial problem to why I can’t go into other gears without the silver button, is this supposed to hook up anywhere? Refer to pic number 2 I tried basic things like unplugging and plugging the battery, unplugging the dsc fuse and plugging it back in to maybe reset it after putting the new shifter in. All I know is I got back in my car and as I noticed the DSC system fault, ever since it wouldn’t let me shift gears. Any suggestions?

I’m interested in the same. Did you get this to work?

Hi Martin, welcome to the club. My XKR is 15 years old, 60,000 miles and still under the Jaguar manufacturers warranty. Only thing you know for certain is that a failure to renew at the annual subscription will guarantee a big bill, which in hindsight could just as easily have been covered by squirreling away the annual premium for the warranty package into a savings account. N6 JMX

I'm paying £1200 pa for above on a 2017 XFS diesel, current mileage 53,000 and I only now do about 3-4,000 mls a year, not sure whether or not to continue the guarantee, (I paid £1500 to a main dealer last year to replace the timing belt, which they had to be done at 7 years)

Hi guys, I’ve just bought a s type 2006. I love the car and drives better than my 2022 Volvo. You would think it as old as it is. It’s stunning. however I have the navigation system and the audio isn’t clever. I was hoping to add a discreet amp and change the speakers for a more premium setup. However I believe this can’t be done . Unless some of you fantastic enthusiasts can tell me different. thank you in advance

Just purchased a 2007 s-type, I have a problem with a hard brake pedal when coming to a stop, braking is great upto that point. As car is in drive I have to press very hard on brake to control car. Is this a similar problem

Hi Joseph, you need to get your car on diagnostic equipment to find out if there are any stored fault codes, then someone may be able to point you towards the appropriate cure. N6 JMX

Sorry for the delay. I’m in the us and ready, willing and excited about purchasing. [email protected]

Not as scary as it sounds, a Dedicated Ground Return is a negative cable from the alternator that runs back to the battery. Here I have bolted a tag to the alternator housing with the cable lug riveted. Cable is pure copper 8awg, and I used 5 meters. From the tag to behind the FR wheel liner then along the RH rocker cover, then behind the RR wheel liner above the exhaust to a convenient blind grommet into the boot. This is delivering a better charge and it is not surprising since the negative to the battery runs thru 3 meters of mild steel chassis after the engine. The DRG is also better for canbus due to lower signal interference.
