  1. So my S-type has just started randomly asking for the system pin everytime I start the car? (it was standing for 3-4 days before) Once entered the radio etc all works fine. Is this a sign of a new battery being required? Or is this a sign of the usual dreaded S-Type elctrical gremlins? I've not checked the voltage yet. Thanks, Ad
  2. Again I'll have to check this as this new battery was already fitted when I purchased the car. This cranking issue has become more apparent since the car went to a independent Jaguar Service dealer who kindly ran the car until he used all £25 worth of fuel and left me with 12miles when I went to collect it. Perhaps some dirt has been sucked up? It only did it once or twice prior to this happening. It certainly has cracking issues if its the first time it has started that day.
  3. I shall have a look at this then. It's a possibility.
  4. My recently purchased 4.2 V8 has now intermittently started having starting problems. Turns over every time but sometimes doesn't start. It can take multiple attempts. 3 maybe 4. Should I be able to hear what sounds like the fuel pump like I can in my Dad's 2.5 V6 S-Type when turning the key in the ignition? I know the battery is fairly new but it is not a Varta one like most people seem to say you need with the S-Type. Any help would be appreciated.
  5. Always wanted to own a Jaguar, so finally took the plunge after having the use of my Dad's for the last 18 months. This week I just purchased a 2003 4.2 V8 Jaguar S-Type. Am also now a proud member of the Jaguarownersclub.com! Nice to meet you all. Adam
