OK OK OK I know I just keep asking questions, BUT you guys/girls have done it to yourselves by being so helpful 😁😁 I have a lot of niggly problems with this car but for some reason I want to keep it and fix it, the front shocks are leaking and need replacing, looking around trying to find front strut assemblies without selling my bottom on the streets is not an option (Yes I have the CATs system) my question is can I just install normal Struts and not reconnect the CATs wires and if so will it cause any issues ? See a simple question NOT Thank you in advance for your help. Gary Alias Jagvette1 on You Tube

OK, I know these code/problems are covered in this wonderful forum, BUT I wonder what is the most common problem and can you guys give me a head start to solving them ? Transmission problems Code P0706 and P0730 Do note, I have 167,000 miles on the car I have just replaced the solenoid block/filter and fluid (the faults were there before) Emissions code P0430 dat damn Cadillac (many Americans I have met call it that) cunvorter error, OR just an oxygen sensor ? Any help to shortcut fixing these errors would be gratefully received. Gary

OK this is first time with s Super Charger, is there a particular OIL that fellow owners would recommend as this baby has 162,000 on it. Thanks Gary

OK, hopefully I am not breaking any rules here (I know the UK government doesn't allow free speech 🙂 ) I am doing various jobs on my newly acquired S Type R and post on my channel JAGVETTE1 please check it out and if you like it please subscribe I do it for fun not profit, I make mistakes and I show them, I am a mechanic with more years of experience than I care to remember, BUT I know you are NEVER too old to learn. Thanks in advance Gary

OK, thanks for all the responses, you guys are great

I gonna have to check and see if I can clear and reset the tranny to my style OR is it a dealer only ?

No codes, showing anything, already checked 😞

OK I am new to this S Type, but I have had one before, however this one has an annoying habit of beeping when at light or when I start off, my assumption is that a previous owner replaced the front bumper and either damaged or blocked one of the parking sensors, all ideas welcome.

Right there with you scooby, changing is always better

Yeah, never believed the Lifetime BS I have purchased Dexron VI, hope it works FYI IF anyone is interested in my journey with this 2006 Jaguar S Type R check out my YouTube channel JAGVETTE1

just surfing the internet and it seems that was the one to use, and yes my car does have the ZF box

OK as you guys were so helpful on my previous question here is another one I have a 2006 S Type R I am changing the transmission Filter and solenoid block then refilling with fluid (yes I have done S Types before) BUT I keep reading I should use Pentosil fluid number 1 does anyone know if I must and if not and I use regular ATF ? Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys for your responses.

Does any know how to remove the sunroof liner, my lining is lose, and it would be great if I could take it out to repair, but it looks like I might have to tuck it or remove the whole headlining, not something I want to do. Help Gary
