  1. Many listings on Internet, Ebay etc., etc,. Depends on what quality of job you want done. If you are fussy like me then I would not recommend doing a DIY job. Email various advertisers and ask for Photos, so as you can review their work. Good Luck and Best Wishes , John
  2. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264730605761?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338268676&toolid=10044&_trkparms=ispr=1&amdata=enc:18mVRCV10RUOedYjRvErOhQ79&customid=EAIaIQobChMI-PXFyNS8-gIVC-vtCh2rQgl7EAQYAiABEgLKFPD_BwE Loads more on Ebay, but this appears to be one of the cheapest.

    Victor Sorry to hear about the problems with buying a car. You do not actually state that you bought the cat from a retail dealer, but It is a reasonable assumption that you did. Be careful if you did not and bought it privately, as different laws apply. Also even if bought from a dealer, please be certain that you did not agree to any disclaimers, rules, etc etc, imposed by the seller in writing. Many dealers do actually supply "Trade Deal " cars, which may be applicable to constrained rules, etc, etc. If bought from a retail dealer, then as previously quoted, "Get it back to the dealer/seller asap and insist that it is put right or your money is refunded in full. Good Luck and Best Wishes, Regards, John
  4. Jason Great cars and great times. I am now 72 years and enjoy a more comfortable and slightly slower way of life and travel. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  5. Jason You can always email Heritage Jaguar for this sort of information. They have all old files and will search to a criteria you request. I have used them and it works fairly quickly and is very informative. It will obviously cost you, but the information will be correct. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  6. UPDATE: Problem solved and repaired. Rear o/s wheel speed sensor. Small cheap part .... caused big problem. Regards, John
  7. Frank, I am just a mere child at 72 years !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Regards John Pure

  11. Craig Certainly not an unusual problem for S-Types and in fact other models of Jaguar. However S-Types appear to be the most prone to the battery problems. I use a CTEX MXS 7.0 Charger/Re-conditioner on my S-Type regularly. Usually at least once per week and for a period of at least 24 hours. Keeps the fault codes to a manageable level. Well worthwhile piece of equipment to invest in and used by many owners on this Forum. There is a Full Re-Set Schedule listed on this Forum. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  12. Tom Nothing sounds particularly new in your submission. There are many references to similar stories on this Forum. Sounds a more frequent complaint about Jaguar Dealers. Good Luck with your independent specialist. Certainly a route that is often a better bet.Best Wishes and Regards, John
  13. My 17 years old S-Type has an annual oil change with Castrol Edge. I t does about 5000 mile per year and never uses a drop of oil between the annual service. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  14. Jaguars are prone to batteries discharging if left for any length o time , possibly parasitic discharge. S-Type appear to be particularly prone to the problem. My S-Types keeps well by using a CTEK MS 7 charger / re-conditioner at least once a week and for a minimum of 12 hours. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  15. It appears that Jaguar have a unique manner, they do not recognise customer service in my opinion. I have the feeling that Jaguar do not even recognise that they produced the model that I own. Independent Jaguar Specialist are a better bet. Good luck and Best Wishes, Regards, John
