  1. Joe, Many thanks again. I will look on Ebay for the universal wind back tool. Regards, John
  2. Joe, Many thanks once again. Is the piston wind back tool for the rears of any specific nature for the S Type. Perhaps a photo of yours would show what is necessary. The point about Red Stuff pads is well worth knowing as I do notice a fair bit of dust on the alloys. Many Thanks and Regards, John
  3. Would be very interested on views of what you consider the best manufacturer of replacement discs and pads (Front and Rear) for my S Type. Also if anyone has views for or against drilled discs, besides the OE fitment being vented. Many thanks and Regards, John
  4. A clutch slipping at anytime is not good news and if so doing it is wearing. I am surprised you have not already contacted the specialist fitters or been back with the car. The sooner you get in touch with them or back to them the better, before they start trying to blame it on you and a driving style. Best Wishes in getting it replaced, Regards, John
  5. Elliott, I know it is a nuisance getting the wrong specification delivered, but at least they have accepted their mistake and are arranging the correct replacement. Far better than you altering the wiring to the Lambda Sensors. Good luck when you eventually get to do the job. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  6. No, mine was an exact replica/copy of the original equipment fitting. Regards, John
  7. Elliott, it is a reasonably straight forward job. The only pointers I could offer are what I imagine you will be well aware of anyway.: make certain you have the correct sized sockets etc., to avoid rounding off. Use a couple of soakings of WD40 and let it soak in before attempting to remove nuts, especially at the manifold. Be sure the joint at the manifold is seated correctly when you fit the new Converter and do not over torque the nuts. Good Luck with the job. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  8. Bought mine in recent months from the link below. They seem to know what they are selling, very helpful and quick delivery. Product good as well. Photos on my submissions in S-Type from a few months back. https://www.onlineautomotive.co.uk/car-parts/Jaguar/S-Type/2.5L/Petrol/Premium/Exhausts/Catalytic-Converters/JAG1037H/1/34?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIpfeMq4eE9gIVP4BQBh1tZAOpEAQYASABEgJzqvD_BwE Good luck and Best Wishes, Regards, John
  9. Bought mine a few months ago from here, along with the Catalytic Converter Seemed . OK they know there stuff, were very helpful and delivery was quick. Product is of good quality. Photos of product on my earlier submission regards Catalytic converter. https://www.onlineautomotive.co.uk/cheap-car-parts/Proton/Catalytic-Converters?gclid=EAIaIQobChMInLjE2b2C9gIVCO3tCh0H9AjVEAAYASAAEgLGTPD_BwE Best Wishes and Regards, John
  10. Jon, This is the link that I was looking at, but I am not even sure of which type/style of badge you are looking for. Picture would be educational if you have one. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313&_nkw=Jaguar+X+type+Boot+Badges&_sacat=0 Best Wishes and Good Luck with you searching. Regards, John
  11. It seems I forgot to put the link in. However if you have already checked Ebay then I am sure the badge I was referring to would not be what you were looking for. Good luck with your search. There are some breakers around who often specialise in Jaguar bits. Perhaps you could search for them and find something. Sorry to have caused confusion. Regards, John
  12. Jon, is this the one you are looking for. There are many types for sale on EBAY and the likes. Cheers, John
  13. Would agree but as with anything for sale, it is dependent on what someone will pay for it. Good luck with sale. Regards, John
