hello Jim, It is just the satnav and all 3 garages have played around endlessly with the disc player, to no avail. I like the idea of hooking up my Android 'phone to get Maps etc, so I will check out Cartonics etc. Thanks for your advice, I'll let you know how I get on.

Yes, new one fixed all issues thanks

The Jag has had a accident before me and was Categorised as a S which from seeing the photos recently I think it was wrongly categorised it should have been Cat N Selling price is £15750 Message me for more details

Hey all, I have acquired a 2009 5.0L X150, my first Jaguar, for a fantastic price. As with all good things there is a catch. The Car runs but blows smoke out the exhaust, Head Gasket according to a independent Jaguar Mechanic. I can make use of a friends garage and pay to have the engine taken out and either change the head gaskets myself or get my friend to do the entire job. I also have a 3rd option and that is for me to do the job at home as a project. My main question is it possible to remove the heads whilst the engine is in the Car? I have been told that you struggle to remove the heads due to the inner strut towers but I was wondering if it was possible to unbolt and rotate the engine enough to pull the heads off to change the head gaskets? I understand that this is not a simple task, I am an ex professional racing driver, raised around Cars and have always fixed and fettled my own cars. I have a well equipped triple garage to work on the car. I also intend to get all the correct locking tools and also investing in a hydraulic scissor lift so I can get under the Car etc. I quite like the idea of a project but want to make sure that I am not biting off more than I can chew. Thanks in advance for the responses

Just purchased a 2007 Jaguar XK convertible with 69000 miles on her. Silver with a cream interior, almost perfect condition, always maintained and garaged. Only thing I don't like is has aftermarket chrome wheels which I would prefer stock wheels.

Hi all, Apologies for the slow response. Unfortunately had to deal (successfully!) with prostate cancer. Anyway… nothing loose, but noise remains. Will get my local Indy to take a look soon. Thanks all, Jon

Hello to the group. I'm just signing up and wanted to thank you for having me. Currently sourcing a return to Jaguar ownership after far to long away. Previously owned a 2.5 Xtype and now wanting an XKR as a retirement gift to myself. I look forward to picking all of your brains with my no doubt endless questions. Thank you.

Thank you 😊

As an update, I have now fixed this part of the issue by replacing the unit under the centre arm rest that holds the SIM card (and 12v power socket & USB's). But now I have my 4G signal back, I have still lost my live traffic info from my Sat Nav.

Hi If you google it you need a special electronic control unit for adding trailer sockets on these as all the rear light outputs to the lights have a permanent positive feed to one side of the bulb and the rear body module switches the earth to bring the light on. your trailer will be completely opposite, hence the need for the module, also too much load on the body module outputs could pop the rear body module something like these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152266585006 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/280904208860 cheers Joe
