Just got my 1st Jag (XF)

[Gaz5462]

Hi all, I've just bought a 2014 3.0d XF Rsport and I love it! 

Slight niggle, I tried filling it up for the first time but it kept 'Clicking' off, looking at it when I got home the fuel protection system appears to have activated. Apparently there should be a little tool in the boot but that's missing - Typically! Whilst I was in there I noticed a bit of a strange set up, in the wheel well, I have a pump, foam, locking wheel nut, a tow eye, a red space saver and a random Halfords jack with nowhere to live. I'm guessing the wheel and jack don't belong and have been added. The battery seems to be missing a cover too.

Does anyone have a photo of what it should look like please? That way I can try and tell what's missing, what needs replacing and what can go. The spare wheel and jack can come out as there's not a wheel brace to start with.

Thanks all and I look forward to being a member

Welcome to the club, Garry.

I guess that someone has added the space saver  and the jack to replace  the items that seem the modern thing == My s type has a proper spare wheel and all the bits that go with it are neatly placed in the boo.

I hope an XF owner can supply the photo.

Regards,

Peter.

Hi Peter,

 

Thanks for the reply. Yep, just hoping someone can show me what's it's supposed to look like under there. I realise it's a modern world but must admit, although I've probably only ever had to change a tyre once in my life there is a bit of security knowing theres a spare in the boot. I'm just going to take the plunge and embrace the need to save weight.
