Just cleaned the car today and noticed the leather trim on the top of the door panels seems to have gone ripply . Anyone else had this and wondering if its just the temperature changes and will go back.

Think their might be will investigate when I get it back. I've found that the rubber grommets at the back stayed on the car when we took it of and not realising we are trying to push it into these.  

Can anyone help me please. Trying to replace the engine cover on my XFRS and it just will not push back far enough to locate on the centre rubber mounts.

Hi 

Can anyone help with this please.  Having removed the engine cover as directed simply lift at the front and pull forward replacing it is proving difficult. It simply will not push back under the bulkhead to line up with the centre rubber mounts. Does anyone have a solution please.

Thanks 

Thanks Joe i will have a go .

Hi anyone know where i can get instructions on how to remove the engine covers for a revamp. Don't want to start snapping things trying to get them  off . Looked on you tube nothing .

Thanks

How about setting up a list of recommended independent garages up and down the country.

E & E Services MK Ltd, 114 Tanners Drive, Milton Keynes.

Hi all, i have a green algae starting on the window seals of my xf.

Any one have any ideas for how to remove and how to prevent.

The car is cleaned regularly but stands outside. The rear windows don't lower enough for direct access.

Thank you 

Hi Leo,

Just looked at the CTEK chargers. They look good. Any idea which one id need for an XFRS stop start. Im thinking the MXS 5.0 with auto temp compensater.

Thanks for the information i will have a look at the CTEK  battery conditioner.

Hi all

This is pretty basic but has anyone any tips for keeping the battery charged. My car only goes out at he weekends as i have to use a van for my work. Struck me yesterday that the stop/start hardly ever kicks in because the battery needs backing up. Wondering what this is going to be like in the colder weather and how I can help.

Hi Carol

Thanks, Its a very small dent but still annoying as the car was in beautiful condition. Love the xk by the way. 

Hi all

Whilst stationary some prat decided to fire a bb gun at the side of my car. There is a small pea sized dent with minor paint damage. 

Just wondering if any one has used these mobile paint less dent repair specialist. The dent is small but annoying.

Hi all,

Thank you

Thanks mate, cant believe shes mine when i look out the window.

Hi Gary from another newbie.

l Love the look of your xfr. Only had mine for three weeks. It went to the detailers on Thursday, can't wait to see the results. I'm already missing it, makes me smile every time I look out the window and see it sitting on the drive. Afraid im not massively knowledgeable about cars used to do brakes clutches points plugs in the old days now far to complicated for me.

Can tell you mines a 5.0 L  V8 xfrs pushing 550bhp and frightens the life out of you if you get a bit pedal happy.
