HI You want a long box spanner or the next size down long reach socket use one of the other plugs and find a socket thats just smaller and then knock it onto the damaged plug, it should grip it enough to get it out or even a piece of steel pipe, you want it, just smaller than the plug, then knock it on, if its one of the back ones, you will struggle dont use a socket with the 12 flats, use one with the 6 flats if you can find any thing, get some steel wire 1.5mm to 2.5mm, like a welding rod, bend it into a shape similar to the spark plug, you want it so it slides inside the spark plug socket, so it slots into two opposite corners, then at the bottom of the socket, bend the wire out so it can't slide into the socket you want this wire to take up the slack from the corroded plug and socket, you want it a tight fit, so it knocks on, light taps till it goes on, the tapping will also help free the plug hopefully that should get it out also if the car is still a runner, the plug insulator is not damaged, then I would only try knocking the steel pipe on it or a smaller long reach socket, as any thing else might damage the insulator, leaving the plug faulty and then a non runner cheers Joe sorry for the quick sketch, but it should give you the idea

I firmly believe that is in all car manufacturers interests to over-claim when a timing belt needs replacing. I personally never take a belt on any car beyond 40, 000 miles as it's cheaper to replace a belt than an engine

As you surmise Tina, you need a completely separate line to use the in-car phone. If you have the touchscreen though, Jaguar's Bluetooth setup is easy to retro-fit. I can help you with that if required.

Hi are these any good cheers Joe 1999 XJ X308 Vehicle Care Handbook.pdf 1999 XJ8 owners manual.pdf Jaguar_XJ_2001_Audio_System_Handbook.pdf Jaguar_XJ_2001_Vehicle_Care_Handbook Supplement.pdf

Hi Paul, It does the same for me! I don't know Crewe very well but I do know that Swansway Jaguar is very close to the railway Station and using the postcode I am sure it will be easy to find on a Sunday Morning. If you google Swansway Garages - Crewe, it will show you how big the new building will be. I look forward to seeing you there. Regards, Peter.
