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

Gearbox Rotary Switch Repair Service
N6 JMX replied to Nige005's topic in XK8 / XKR ( X100) 1996 - 2006
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

This is just to conclude this in case anyone is interested. I asked the Jaguar mechanic who performed the latest service and he was able to remove the bolt by hand and it was his opinion that it was an error from the factory. The bolt is a seatbelt bolt but all seatbelt bolts were where they should be so he believed that this would have been dropped inside the bodywork and it just eventually made it's way to the hole in the ceiling of the boot. It wasn't something that he had seen before.

Hello Fellow enthusiasts. Question, would a later model BTooth module (eg. 2012 ECM) work in a 2007 vehicle? This year, my BT cannot connect/pair with phones this year. Maybe the mobile phone IO is too advanced for the current ECM? I have had a service centre reflash the S/W on the unit without resolve. So, am thinking of hunting for a replacement and I believe from 2012 onward, the interface is improved and may work with current mobile phone IOs. Thank you in advance for your help & support. Rick.

Pete Tucker started following XK8 waist trim
-
Hi all, I'm sure this has probably come up before! I recently purchased a 2000 registered XK8 coupe which is in really good condition with only 35k on the clock, but the waist trims on the top of the doors are being lifted by corrosion. Not sure if this is the result of the doors corroding or the strips? Initial search seems to indicate these grey coloured strips aren't available, and replacements seem to be rubber. Anybody with experience of this situation who could advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Pete

Nige005 started following Gearbox Rotary Switch Repair Service
-
Good morning all. Having intermittent problems with the ( I think ) Rotary Switch on the Gearbox, if you select " D " sometimes the " D " light does not illuminate and the gears will not change, seems to be stuck in 1st or 2nd gear. If you move the gear selector around a bit to other positions and then back to " D "the " D " light will come on and then all is well. The problem is intermittent but I think getting worse - it's making me twitch a bit now ! It's possible that the selector cable is sticking or mis adjusted, that was the cause of a similar problem a couple of years ago but I would like to be really sure this time and get the Switch repaired/ refurbished before getting the adjustment done. A brand new switch would be nice but not sure if they are available and dread to think of the price even if they are. I know that some companies offer a repair service for some of the electronics bits like ABS Control Modules etc so does anyone know of a company that offers repairs to these Switches ? Any help or advice gratefully received ! Thanks, Nige.

Hi Jim, thanks for the reply and suggestion. Worth considering for sure - if the 'off-the-shelf' option doesn't bear any fruit. -
