Sorry I forgot to report back. But they have been fitted for nearly two and a half years without any further problems

Hi, I have the same problem with my 2006 X Type 3Ltr,  I will try to find a the bleed valve to see if there is air in the system.  But today after driving for 15 mins with cold air blowing on me I stopped the engine for a minute and when turned back on there was instant heat, so I think it is more of a valve sticking.  Do you know if the S type valve is the same as for the X type? I cant see any X type valves on eBay.

Found these on eBay, so i've ordered a set. Once fitted I'll report back on if they are any good

Steve, yes I've asked the dealer but it comes as part of the cover which is £33.14 (primed) each and seeing that i need 2 is a little over the top.

They must sell them seperate because i have a black one and a grey one fitted so it must have been replaced in the past.

If I can't find a supply (at reasonable cost) I will end up making something myself.

I will try 247, cheers

Can anybody suggest where I can get 2 plastics crosses that hold the Headlight washer cover to the headlight washjet arm?

Hi

My iPhone 4 connected without problem to my 06 3.0L saloon. Do you have the #code to connect? (it is ##3#*# and my pass key is 1313)

Hi Indie, Ive only had my 06 Jag since March and there is little evidence of stone chips on it. I have been on a couple of long moterdrives (Newbury to S/Wales) and she does not show the stone chips that my 04 Mondeo does.

I've looked at Utube videos of the vinyl being applied and I would certainly like to have a go appling it (I'd practice on the Mondeo).

Have you costed it?

I'm also new to auto driving, but I just use the same dicipline as gear driving. When I stop at lights I apply the handbrake and place in neutral, allowing me to remove my foot from the brake. (stops blinding any one behind you). Never go into neutral withou the use of a brake because the car will roll

Happy Driving

It's all about the preperation!

Wash the car with a good mitt using Fairy Liquid in warm water (this will remove old wax/polish), next Claybar the car using a good car shampoo / water mix (15%) as a lubricant.

Wash car as normal using good car shampoo and dry.

polish car.

Weekly I then quick wash and then use a wet wax to dry and buff.

I also like to touch up the plastic bits to keep them black and keep the windows clean with glass cleaner and every couple of weeks use a trye gel / prep, if these are not done even when the car is clean the overall look is still not right.

I use Autoglym, but when you only use abvout 20ml per wash it does go a long way. I also don't over spary with the wet wax.
