Made to measure covers from specialised covers. Co.uk (Yorkshire) not a one size fits all / cheap but a quality cover

Normal service has resumed however I can't be sure what the problem was as apart from taking the door panel off and think that one of the plugs into the module wasn't fully inserted, put it on the scanner and scrubbed a couple of fault codes thanks again to all members for their input on this thread

Cheers for that Jim Will look at pulling the passenger door module for the part number for a replacement, I can't find a how to but hopefully I won't have to remove the door panel as the information I have found suggests that it is positioned behind the door speaker

I may be wrong but I think the car was set up that when the passenger door was opened the mirrors unfolded , I understand where you are coming from but after 10 years ownership this has only recently been brought to my attention after a battery disconnect and me thinking I might have an incoming gremlin On the flip side if what I think was happening isn't within the normal format of the in car software it may have highlighted a gremlin that i wasn't aware of

When the car is opened just from the passenger door (keyless) the mirrors remain folded is this correct? they fold to the driving position as they should using the drivers side

Personally russ the xk 150 has such limited use I suggest you get a second car capable of transporting more than 1 passenger . If you're partner disagrees with buying another car i suggest you ask her to travel in the back once and that will definitely change her mind what you identify as a rear seat is nothing more than a low level parcel shelf 🤣

Xk8 rust can be an issue however £15k should get you a good example

Try specialised covers. Co .UK Custom made to measure choice of colours etc

Wouldn't your query be best answered by a company that does tinting for a living 🤔

If you go on sng Barrett bushes and ball joints available + any necessary nuts and bolts

Xk150 or xk8 ? Both built 2005

O t h 👍

Hiya Tim unless your car is a R you don’t have to remove the bumper and the ped sensors can be accessed from the top ,that said if it is an R the sensors can be accessed by removing the front most under tray , you will probably find that these sensors are more problematic during the summer season (temperature) however they appear to have a life span of approx 10 years never knew that you can have a height adjustable spring/standard front strut arrangement other than coil overs are you sure it isn’t the headlights levelling sensor?
