Hi Barry.
Given the temperatures this morning, battery issues would be top-of my list. Can you give some more detail on the non-start. Did the engine turn over at normal speed or was it sluggish? Have you tried a jump start? If you have a battery charger that would be my first port of call.
How old is the battery? Has stop-start worked normally recently? Do you do lots of short journeys?
Good luck
John
Hi John thanks for replying. The car hasn’t started at all. I got in the car early this morning, the first message I had was “steering column locked” so I started it the usual way, it attempted to start but didn’t make it. So I kept trying and then noticed the “gearbox fault” message. I think I’ve tried too many times as now the break pad is really stiff and will barely press. Stop start has worked fine, to be honest not sure how old the battery is, I’ve had the car since 2018. I’ve not tried a jump start. I do a lot of short journeys yes.

Hi, my XF wouldn’t start this morning. Have recently noticed an orange message “Park break fault” but this has only appeared occasionally in the past few weeks. Then this morning the car didn’t start and had the message “gearbox fault” I tried to start it a few times, the break is now really stiff and car won’t start at all. Has anyone else had this happen? A Google search this morning mentions battery problems but it feels like it’s not going to be as simple as this.

Hi my 2012 XF is due it’s service ,probably an obvious answer but how will I know which service to have done ? I have looked on the service history and only the first few years was A or B ticked , the last few years don’t have a tick in either box so I don’t know whether A or B have been done ? Thanks in advance
