Hello, I’m Guillaume from France. I’m the happy owner of a Jaguar XJS V12 (1988) from 3 years. After several trips behind the wheel of my feline (France, Spain…), I plan to travel around Scotland on October for approximately 15 days. So I have some questions abouts technical aspects and advice to enjoy this trip. I thank you in advance for your responses. Please excuse my approximate english…😅

Wheel sizes on XF's with 3.0 litre engines fitted
Big John replied to Billyboy's topic in Jaguar XF Club
Hi Wynne I would be surprised if those were the correct size. Mine is 2013 on 19" wheels and takes 245/40s. That profile means you get less cushioning from the tyres in addition to incorrect speed reading etc. My choice is to go for an all season tyre. Absolute performance is slightly less than a summer tyre but as soon as the temperature gets below 8 C they are far better. Add a bit of snow or ice and they are in a different league. Michelin Cross Climates are traditional class leaders but I like the new Bridgestone Turanza 6 All Season as a good compromise. Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 are also well rated. Don't forget to buy online as you always get a better price. John -

I've spoken with Dave at DCR, sounds a nice guy. Looks like he could have a solution for me in a couple of weeks. Thanks for your help! Pete

N6 JMX replied to Billyboy's topic in Jaguar XF Club
Hi Wynne, go to the Kwik Fit website and type in your registration number to see a range of tyres that will be suitable for your car. You don't need to buy from Kwik Fit, but they will show you the best options to suit. Any worries, come back here and there's lots of assistance. N6 JMX -
Gearbox Rotary Switch Repair Service

Look forward to a positive outcome. Let us know. N6 JMX -
Hi Pete, yes Euro Jag are good for second-hand parts and trustworthy. If all else fails, type "jaguar xk8 X100 waist window door seals" into your search engine and there are several options for rubber seal extrusions, some as little as £50 per side. N6 JMX

Gearbox Rotary Switch Repair Service

Hi Jim, thanks for the help and advice. I did find Dave's website AFTER I'd found an outfit on eBay offering a repair service. As usual I leapt before I looked...... I sent the switch to them by Special Delivery on Monday morning and it's already on it's way back to me and due to arrive today. Obvioiusly I don't yet know how this is going to pan out but the eBay feedback is 100% positive so I'm trying to be equally positive about it but not yet 100% sure......! I can't get the Switch fitted until the beginning of June when the car is in for MoT and service so I'll just have to fret for a little longer. Once it is fitted and I've given it a good test I'll Post the results and details of the outfit on here in case anyone else wants to give it a try. Fingers and webbed toes crossed. Thanks again. Cheers, Nige. -

Wheel sizes on XF's with 3.0 litre engines fitted
wynne replied to Billyboy's topic in Jaguar XF Club
I have 225/40 R19 P Zeros on my dealer sourced used 2019 3.0D XFS that need replacing. Nowhere do I see 225/40 recommended. I am no 'speed merchant; but I love to drive my car. P Zeros a little too uncomfortable for my liking. Any tyre recommendations - make, model, size. -

Thanks very much for the reply N6! My initial searches were leading me to this conclusion 😒. I will contact DCR. There's also a company called Euro Jag 01325 722777 who are calling me back with a possible second hand option. Really appreciate you taking the time.

Have you approached Jaguar Classic or the JDHT to see if they would like it? Seems too good to scrap. N6 JMX -

Hi Nige, try speaking to Dave Roche at DCR AutoParts, link below with website and contact details. Dave can be a great source of inspiration to solutions. https://www.dcrautoparts.com/ N6 JMX -
Hi Pete, these strips are no longer available from Jaguar or their suppliers, but several options have come to light using either reclaimed parts, or a rubber moulding procured from eBay. The problem is that they have an internal metal strip, which corrodes, swells and then lift the seal away from the door top. A company up near Inverness, DCR AutoParts, will usually be able to source good second-hand replacements, ask for Dave Roche. This is a link: https://www.dcrautoparts.com/ to his website. Email and contact numbers are on the home page. If not successful with Dave, come back and I will locate the rubber trim moulding option. N6 JMX

Has anyone correctly fitted 15" beauty rings to a Xjs Facelift with diamond lattice wheels?

Hi Paul, I'm sure stranger things happen, but it doesn't say much for quality control. Glad you got it sorted though! Jon
