  1. Sounds like you’re going to have to overhaul the brake calipers On the other hand… It’s a known thing that pad deposits can build up on the discs and cause this juddering A good few heavy braking sessions from speed can remove these deposits and cure the problem till it comes back
  2. I tend to agree with you It’s your car - you can do what you like with it!
  3. Charge up the battery and it will do 11 miles no problem I had the exact same problem about 2 weeks ago leaving my work car park and it managed 30 miles I had everything electrical off that I didn’t need, but the windows misted bad and I was freezing by the time I got home! Second hand alternator cured it
  4. If the boot was full of water the it’s more than likely that your junction box is slowly dying It’s a box in your boot that holds relays, fuses and computery things If it does turn out to be that, then it’s an expensive fix. Although I’ve read that some people claim to have fixed them by removing and drying them out. There are also people on the internet who say they can fix them All I can say is good luck with this one
  5. I imagine the only way to switch it off is by using jag specific sdd computery stuff Don’t ask me how though, I’m a dinosaur nowadays
  6. What’s wrong with the stuff specified in the handbook?
  7. Ah… I think the explanation is that yours is a 17 plate and mine is a 14 plate Sorry…
  8. There’s a tiny, almost invisible, clear dot on the black border of the windscreen glass that the wiper tip is meant to park at
  9. You can change said valve for a new one
  10. There’s a valve in the compressor that can go bad
  11. Isn’t there a bit in the touchscreen where you can mess about with how it locks or unlocks?
  12. Do all the doors stay locked?
  13. You’ve got to tell the car it’s got a new battery via sdd or autel a dealer or indy will do it for you
  14. Have you tried a car breaker?
