Can anyone find me the correct link to where I can buy the gasket and o rings for my 2003 2.5 V6 auto s type please I just can’t find them. Also on the back of the inlet how do I remove the brake servo pipe thank you.

After changing the coil packs and spark plugs on cylinders 1,3 & 5 on bank 1 as codes was telling me of a multiple misfire. I now have a P1549 code and engine light comes on every time car is started but runs great. Iv read it’s a air leak could it be the iMT O Rings or simply this pipe in photo attached.

Cheers joe great help I’m gonna Just change the plugs and coil packs 

Can someone find me a full set of coils packs for a 2003 2.5 V6 auto as I’m finding some but not sure if they are the correct ones. Also I’m after the correct heater control unit for the same car thank you.

Iv just checked again as engine light came back on and I can up with misfire on cylinders 1,3 and 5 also a P1313 misfire Catalist bank on bank number 1 any ideas what they are 

I’m just getting a misfire and afew cylinders and get a restricted performance on the dash 

Iv done a dinostics on my 2.5 V6 auto after a amber light and engine light with restricted performance came on the display which showed up misfires in afew banks so I’m gonna change the spark plugs  I’m wanting to know what’s the best plugs to buy or could it be the coil pack ?? I use a icarsoft i930 

What can cause a Amber dash light engine light and restricted performance come on dash then go off after afew seconds. Car drives great and it’s a 2.5 V6 petrol auto.

I did send my spare key to one of the people on eBay - they checked it over (it already had a new pad etc) and sent paper with instructions to follow to get it to work. I tried, but it wouldn't work.

If I am down at the Jag dealers I may ask them to program it in for me, but am managing on one key OK. I have more important matters to sort - like a bashed back bumper that some 'nice person' left me with when I was parked in a no through road not far from home..... no note so it's down to me to sort. 

That’s out of order but if no one sees it happen they just drive away 

Iv bought a new uncut key the same as the ones in the video for my s Type has anyone programmed one of these keys. I went into Timpsons and the lad said he won’t do it as he as been told not to program a customers own key as it said made in China on the clear packet. He did say he will supply and program one for me but it would cost me £299 he might be able to do it for £250

Well finally got the gearbox fluid changed gears change nice and smooth now 

Thank you I will give that a look tomorrow 

What will happen if you change the fluid in a 2.5 V6 automatic gearbox and you dont use the ZF lifeguard oil/fluid 

Anyone know they possible reason the blowers seem to only blow hot air it’s so hot outside and even hotter inside 

Well Iv just received the parts I need to do the auto box fluid I ordered all the parts and fluid from a company called AUTODOC thinking it was in the uk turns out there in Berlin Germany. I ordered the Oil pan with bolts ( Trucktek ) make a tcm and 7ltrs of fluid. Today my parcels arrive to find out Iv received a (stark ) make Oil pan no bolts the tcm and the 7ltrs is fluid. I’m waiting on a reply from AUTODOC as I believe they have changed my order as I never even seen the Stark Oil pan list on there site and I knew I defo need these new pan bolts.

Fluid level at best. Torque converter at worst, I'd say.

There’s a gearbox fluid leak just a slight one but I’m just waiting for the parts to turn up then get it done 

Thank you Iv ordered a full gear sump kit 

Cheers mate Iv just watched

the video Iv ordered the 7ltrs of fluid a new pan and the tcm 

Is that the new fluid going in ? 

Hi cublist

im lucky to have a very good friend who has been a Machanic for many many years who has a garage, he is gonna have a look at it tomorrow morning so fingers crossed labour will be cheap.

Hi Steve 

theres no warning lights.

yes Iv got a obd2 code reader( dunno where the slot on the car is located)

iv Just bought the car so I havnt got a clue when or if the fluid and filter has been changed.

the car has done just over 163,000 miles but was told the engine was changed to a engine with 80 somit thousand miles no sure when tho as Iv got no paper work with the car but looks like coolant and engine Oil has been changed recently 

Would anyone recommend changing the auto transmission fluid out of my 2003 2.5 V6 s Type the car says it’s done over 163,000 miles and it roughwhen changing gear I’m in Bishop Auckland County Durham does anyone know where I can get it done without having my eyes out. I do have a good friend who is a Machanic but not sure if he has done a jag gearbox fluid change before if so what is the correct fluid and where’s best to buy it I believe it’s 7ltrs 

Mine locks the doors when pulling away then won’t let u out even when engine is turned off Iv got to press the button under the radio 

I miss listening to absolute 80’s on dab radio as my s-type se only has fm ect I’m not sure if a dab module thing can be added into the head unit I also found 3 aux cable (jack,usb and a iPod cable) not sure what they work with or head unit or the dvd system that has the monitors in the headrest with the 10disc dvd auto changer in the boot.

As Iv just bought the car I’m finding little problems when driving it today the automatic box seems rough when changing gear mainly the low ones and if I put my foot down it’s !Removed! a manual clutch slipping anyone had this thing before and knows roughly what it is thanks guys
