Jaguar Owners Club

Hi Alan.....welcome to the Club

Hopefully you can find the next Jaguar of your dreams (or memories to be more precise).
It will go well with the collection of cars and bikes you already have

Good to have you onboard!

Hi Stephen.....welcome to the Club

Feel free to start up a local Jagaur Owners Club meeting in your area if you wish.

We can assist with promoting the meetings (usually local pub with large carpark) when COVID restrictions finally lift

OK, thank you.  What I meant was are these reliable enough to go 100k miles, or beyond that?

Absolutely, they are superbly engineered and there is no reason that with the correct routine maintenance it should go on indefinitely 

What kit was he using to code the car?

Yes, as far as I remember they are interference engines

Has the chain gone?

Hi Paula.....welcome to the Club

She certainly is photogenic 🙂

The only thing I can think of is the valve clearances if the valve seats were to recede slightly due to running on poor quality fuel and pre-ignition which can cause this (best to run on 97 octane and additives)
If clearances change then re-shimming may become necessary

Hi Grant.....welcome to the Club

I would advise carrying out a search in the forums to see what faults come up for these models and engines
Hope you find a good example of the Jaguar you're after, I'm sure there's some good ones out there

Hi.....welcome to the club

I would be tempted to disconnect the battery, leave for a short while and then reconnect (negative off first and on last).

The try to plip the locks with the key fob and see if it reads the keys after a few attempts.

Here's some info on battery reset but for S-Type but some functions may not work but may also be helpful to see procedures

Hi Tony......welcome to the Club

That is worrying if it cuts whilst driving.
Has the car had enough prolonged usage to charge the battery?
If not, this can lead to similar issues as can leaving the car sat for many days/weeks at a time.

Has the fuel filter been replaced recently?

Hi Nigel.....welcome to the Club

Fine choice(s) of cars....a car for every occasion!

Hi David....welcome to the Club

I agree with Peter, sounds like the pre-heater emitting fumes into the cabin.
Ensure it is not running constantly and that it times out after a few minutes

So who's up for this Jaguar show at Beaulieu this year?

Hi Chris.....welcome to the Club

It sounds like the cooling system is probably cavitation which is caused by either a hotspot in the coolant system or a faulty pressure relief cap which is cheaper to replace to eliminate this as a possible cause.
 

You should be able to move the seat all the way forwards, undo any bolts and then all the way back and undo any bolts there and the seat should come out
