  2. Hi By the sounds of it the transponder chip has fell out of the fob when you have take the key/remote apart the battery only effects the opening and closing of the car doors, starting is by a transponder chip in the remote, there two types of transponder chip and small black plastic type chip, about 10mm long and a cylindrical glass type chip, if it wont start this is missing you need to find it and slot it back in the key part of the remote/key pics below, but the are only about 10mm long cheers joe
  3. hi Ideally you need to plug in and see what faults you get, they should point you to the right direction if coolants ok, could be a bad coolant level sensor or waterpump, plugging in should tell you and you could also monitor the cooland temp, as the gauges on most jaguars dont show correct temp, they just a visual indicator, the either show normal or full, high temp, there usually no in between, but with a diagnostic tool you can actually monitor the actual temperature cheers Joe
  4. Yesterday
  5. Hi everyone! i own a 68 plate Jaguar epace, 65k on the clock. A couple of weeks ago my engine coolant light came on, but when I looked my engine coolant was full. fast forward to today and my ‘engine overheating’ warning came on so I pulled over. Again, I checked and coolant was full. when I turned my car off it made a loud sound like it was working hard to try and cool down, but as I say coolant was full. Anyone experienced this, and any idea what it could be before I pay out?
  6. Hello...another new sign up....I have an S-type 2002 with a mere 36k on the clock and in great condition - but its sometimes temperamental! Looking forward to advice from more experienced heads..such a lovely car....best philio
  7. i would say it's there for a reason. your call👍
  8. Around 6 months ago the os front brake guard came loose and while I was having some tyres changed the fitter removed it for me. Now the ns has suffered the same fate and the scraping noise is driving me nuts! What are the benefits of these guards and is there any detriment to removing them permanently? TIA
  9. Last week
  10. Thanks will get ot checked
  11. The battery on my 2003 Jaguar S Type spare key fob died. Having replaced it, it now opens and locks the car doors but cannot start the engine, stating that the steering wheel is locked. What should I do?
  12. I possess a 3.5 SE Type, which I bought brand new in 2002. I put the car into the garage for a few repairs under the bonnet. It was at this time that the Garage informed me that the sills (both sides) are rusted badly! The car is now scrap and off the road, but mechanically & the interior are in good condition. I would like to get rid of the car to make room for another vehicle. Therefore, I was wondering if anyone is interested in having the car for spare parts?
  13. If you can, find another headlamp and unplug your offside/drivers headlamp and plug the wiring into the "spare" unit. If the fault persists, it's not the headlamp, if the DRL comes up bright on the spare unit then it's the light unit. However, you may find if the spare is bright, the original might "miraculously" become bright - this points to corroded/dirty connections within the plugs.
  14. Thank you very much
  15. did you scan it for errors? these are not easy to diagnose, might as simple as wiring, but difficult to track where exactly
  16. good man, petrols are bullet proof comparing to those diesels. now enjoy 😄
  17. You are right about the battery I found further information as well that the first models of i pace have alot of issues with the charging with the fast chargers in some cases even the plug doesn't fit. I bought a petrol 2019 XE 25t with 45000 Miles I hope that is a good choice thank you for your reply
  18. Finally i got a Jaguar XE 25t 2019 with 45000 miles I found that the ingenium diesel has a lot of issues (with more critical the tensioners and the timing chain) and the same engine in petrol is better
  19. Dim lights usually points to a poor earth connection. Check the earth point for corrosion on the relevant headlight. N6 JMX
  20. Hi, is this still available and where are you based? Thanks
  21. Hi the strip light in drivers side head light is dim and I can't find a fault, off side is bright, can the strip light be changed or is the case of a new head light
  22. Hi. My drivers side day running lights have become dull and can't find a fault. Any suggestions
  23. The most likely cause of a drain that large is the “alarm chirp sounder”. The internal batteries degrade over time and short out causing the drain. Disconnect it and then see what happens.
  24. A little update. I left the car unlocked for 12 hours - I know stupid, then again in the search for knowledge and all that - the alarm did not set nor did it go of when I got in. Next is to lock the car with one blip and get a group of us to wobble bounce and general upset it to see if the motion sensors get set off Stay tuned!
