Welcome to the forum, enjoy.😊 Loving the “moggy” in the corner.😎

Hi, my name is David, first time Jaguar owner. Fell in to it as I was looking for a 7 seater Citroen C4 Grand Picasso for days out with the grandchildren. However, when my current car came up, I couldn’t leave it. It’s a 3litre V6 twin turbo XFS on a 2010 plate with 77,000 on the clock. Can’t believe thats it’s mine, when I go out each morning. Last big executive car was a Vauxhall Omega Elite Estate 3lt V6 Auto on an 89 plate. Kept for several years. Bever thought I would have anything again so comfy.

Obligate

it will be easier to paint them? plenty of mobile wheels painters around

Hi I have black 17 inch wheels on my xf but I am looking for silver ones if anyone has any or wants to do a deal with them mine has very good tyres.

That's good enough for me, as it just looks good, My partner is having her nails done on Sat morning so I will be going with her to get the colours of my choice. I do not know why Green and Orange are the colours on an XKR, do you or anyone else know? I am a bit patriotic and will be going for Red and Blue, but I am told you can buy nail varnish in these colours. I will post a shot Spyderromeo

Found this, hope it helps; To remove the 2007 Jaguar S-Type front grille, you need to unlatch the hood, then locate and remove two nuts/bolts at the top rear of the grille assembly. After removing the fasteners, you must unclip the plastic tabs that project from the rear of the grille frame by gently easing them outwards. With the nuts, bolts, and tabs disengaged, the entire grille can be removed from the car

My 2007 car horn is not working. I purchased a second hand horn which worked but having trouble removing the grill so I can fit the horn I have removed the 2 bolts at the top but it seems to be a push fit as no screws are showing. Am I correct.

It seems that the fuel tank sender float is not working. It needs replacing . Make sure its the right length when you buy.

This is what it looked like after applying nail varnish, you need a steady hand though 🙂

Thanks all!

Thanks Chaps, I'll check them out, also thank you for the advice. Regards Paul

My Revell model enamel came off 3 days later in a car wash I will try nail varnish ! I have found I can get pearlescent red and dayglow blue at my local nail studio. They are very convenient they keep the same hours as Turkish Barbers and open are 7 days a week. But I will try Nail Varnish let you know if it works for me. Spyderromeo

Hi Jim Yep there are loads and loads of posts about this little baby, and it seem like everybody has had a go at it in one way or another. But loads of failures. I am going to try the close all the vents try to build up pressure (not sure where from) also I have also ordered a endoscope from Temu £14.88 colour 4.31 inch screen how can we compete with that !! and if the air pressure doesn't work I will try the scalpel on the end of a pencil method, there are also some methods which use silicon liquid or gel but you need adult verification to use this method. As an aside (I just received a 12 piece 1/2 socket set just to fit my torque wrench from Temu the quality is good, not snap-on good but it has a good ratchet, 10 sockets up to 24mm, and a extension piece, and it came in a metal case including postage for £5.81, and was here in 4 days). Brand new special offer you can buy a brand new SpaceX rocket to take you to the moon for just over £50 !! Who would be in manufacturing. Will let you all know what works best (may take a week of two). Spyderromeo

welcome to the fold pal

Welcome to the forum Tommy, enjoy.😊

Thanks mate, just picked the jag back up after it had the front passenger door lock actuator replaced. Got it home locked the car to find that now the drivers door is no longer locking (which it was before), im starting to think that it could be the bcm rather than the lock actuators.

Have a look on eBay for part number MNC1490AH. Aftermarket being a lot cheaper than the originals.

Welcome aboard Tommy!

If we are talking about the 'R' badge, mine was missing its orange at the top, see picture. I managed to match this colour with one of the wife's many different nail varnishes at it worked a treat and as its enamel paint it will last for ages

You could also look at SNG Barrett's website as they hold large stocks of parts for these cars. SNG Barratt UK | Keeping your Jaguar on the road N6 JMX
