Hi everyone,just bought my first Jag XJ6 2003 model. White with grey leather interior 😀. I was wondering where we can purchase green wheel decals(growler) and on the interior a panel is missing !!! Drivers side to the right of the steering wheel. Is there anyone the club uses that break cars and have panels ? Hope to enjoy my car even in lockdown 😂

Hi all, I've never responded to a forum before but I decided to join this one because I wanted to share my recent experience with my recently purchased 2013 XF Sportbrake . Just after buying the car I did a check for any outstanding recalls , there was just the one outstanding recall , an issue with airbag connections on the module near the centre console . I booked this in with Jaguar dealers not too far from where I live , they said ' it will only take approximately 1 hour ' . After the hour had passed my keys were returned to me , the car had been washed but then I was told that the central locking had a problem and if I wanted this to be looked at then I have to re-book it in at a cost of £170 + vat just to find out why. To cut a long story short they were going charge me over £2000 to sort this out .It took 5 days and legal threats to get them to accept that they had created the central locking problem as a result of DISCONNECTING the battery for them to do the recall work . THERE IS A COMMON PROBLEM HERE REGARDING THE DISCONNECTION OF THE BATTERY JAGUAR KNOW ABOUT THIS , THERE IS EVEN A JAGUAR BULLETIN ON THEIR TECHNICAL WEBSITE THAT HIGHLIGHTS THIS PROBLEM.....JAGUAR NEED TO ACCEPT THAT THEY HAVE A PRODUCT HERE THAT HAS AN INHERENT ISSUE . WE THE END USER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PUT UP WITH A POTENTIALLY POORLY DESIGNED , SUPPOSEDLY " PREMIUM " VEHICLE .

I had a problem very similar to this in that my central locking failed after replacing the main car battery. Everything other than the locks were fine and the fuel filler flap locked ok but not the doors or boot. I went to a local specialist and also my main dealer and they didn't have a clue what the problem was, the main dealer wanted to start stripping the doors and locking modules but I decided to do a little more research first! I found a thread on another forum which was pretty much identical to this one and the poster reported that he had his problem fixed by a specialist in Milton Keynes called E & E Services. I called them up and they immediately knew what the issue was and how to fix it. I live a long way from Milton Keynes but just wanted to get it fixed so ended up driving up there this morning even though they offered to talk a local garage through the process on Autologic which apparently has a lot more workarounds than the standard Jag SSD system. The issue was that the door lock modules needed a security relearn and they did this in about 5 minutes! Then it was back on my way for the return leg of 110 miles... If you've got this problem I'd definitely give E&E a call; I couldn't recommend them highly enough. I have no affiliation with them other than being a happy customer whose door locks now work again at minimal expense (particularly given that my local specialist wanted to change all the door locks and the local JLR main dealer wanted to strip the car!).

Just bought my new toy am extremely happy with it but as to be expected I have a list as long as my arm of niggly faults. Thought I would introduce myself to fellow owners.
