Great news Steve and thanks for the update.

Thanks very much for your comments. Regards Alan

Start with the basics, check the diff oil level. It takes about 750ml of fluid and is simple to suction out and refill, not a bad idea since original 19yr old fluid will be in there. I use Smith & Allen FS 75w-140.

Thank you Jim, simplifies things when you have an idea of what does what! I have found the fault and rectified it in a couple of minutes, problem was the vacuum module which is located under the battery tray, for some reason one of the multi pin plugs was not fully connected?? Don’t know why? It’s now making full contact and system is working properly! pedal is now solid. Just have to put everything back together again and job done! I am surprised that I didn’t get a DTC for this fault. Thanks again Regards Steve H.

Still available, I don't have an XJR to put it on !

Here is the electrical manual for your car, figure 05.1 refers. http://www.jagrepair.com/images/AutoRepairPhotos/CarPDFFiles/JaguarXType/2007XTypeElectrical.pdf

Only SDD/IDS can access immobiliser faults. Then you can remove the battery sounder and strike it off the dealer options. A fault signal from the battery sounder will trigger the main alarm. Diagnostics will tell you if a module is playing up, all in all recommended. Until then you are doing as much as you can.

2006 2.1 petrol xtype. UP28 vacuum pump is not getting any power from its supply source (abs module?) meaning I have a spongy brake pedal, pump is okay. Can someone help me out with the diagram showing the power supply to the pump. thanks in advance Steve H

Good luck with the sale and sorry to hear of your diagnosis. Reminds me of my first Jag ~30 years ago, Sov 4.2, same colour and year on an Irish "private" plate. Visually very similar externally but interior is very different and obviously it was missing 6 cylinders!

Rare chance to get a rare car. 1983 was the III series, the last of the Vanden Plas. Only 140 were made and this is thought to be one of only 2 left. Near full service history, last full one in October 2024. Immaculate walnut wood interior with gold banding. Beautiful cream leather with bespoke piping to match claret car colour. Kent alloys plus spare. Working electric windows and sun roof, original tool kit and first aid kit the list goes on. 12 page valuation of £18,000. Number plate valued at £1,000, cars nickname Lucifer. Selling well below value due to diagnosis and getting affairs in order. offers around £9,000. Please

Still worth checking your tyres though, also your exhaust may have a minor leak causing a drone/vibration or even just a missing hanger. Without hearing and/or seeing the car, this is one of those things where every guess is a needle in a haystack, could be a wheel bearing even.

Can anyone recommend a reliable company to have it checked? I live near Ramsgate, Kent.

Thanks for your comments, I have brand new Pirelli P7's all round so I don't think it is related to the tyres. I agree with you, I do think it's to do with the prop shaft. I just need to find somewhere to have a look. Many thanks Alan

It could be a number of things, my favourite guess would be propshaft centre bearing or tyres. Old tyres can be incredibly noisy, especially if they've developed a carbuncle orother deformation. Could be related to the first problem, seems like you need to have a good check over everything on the back end.

Morning all, I recently purchased a 2006 s type 3litre petrol. I have 2 problems, the first is when travelling from approximately 40mph and above, what I would describe as a droning and a slight vibration becomes very evident from the rear, lifting your foot off the gas makes no difference, the droning continues until you get below approximately 40mph. Could this be a prop shaft problem? second problem is, whilst your foot is on the gas at any speed there is a slight, what I would call, humming from the back, as soon as you lift your foot off the gas the humming stops, put your foot back on the gas and it starts. Possible diff problem? Any thoughts on either of these would be most welcome. Alan

There's a classifieds / for sale section at the bottom of the Forum pages - go there. N6 JMX
